Gather friends and family around for some OOF DAH, a fun, fresh, and competitive board game!

Story

Short Summary

     Hi there, my name is Darren Walters, and I want to introduce you to my legacy project, OOF DAH! The Organic Farm Strategy Game.  This game has been a labor of love of mine for more than 10 years and I can confidently say it’s ready for everyone!  Countless hours of playtesting ensures that your friends and family will not only find the game endlessly challenging, but will keep coming back to the game table for even more fun, excitement, competition, and camaraderie, creating a virtual lifetime of value and entertainment! 

     This campaign has a fundraising goal of $60,000 to produce an initial print run of a thousand games.  If OOF DAH does well in the market, efforts will be made to broaden the game’s scope and appeal by issuing more copies, promoting on social media platforms, and perhaps selling on global retail distributors such as Amazon or eBay.

     By adding your contribution of $60, you are not only ensuring that the costs of preproduction are covered, you are letting us know you want to be among the first in the world to receive your copy of the ultimate boardgame, OOF DAH!

 

What We Need & What You Get

     The $60,000 fundraising goal on Indiegogo is necessary to cover the cost of production for the parent company, Ad Magic, to print 1000 copies.  It will also be applied to additional startup costs, such as shipping, handling, warehousing, distribution, sample prints, as well as customs inspections and insurance.  The expected ETA for first copies of OOF DAH to be shipped will be approximately 4 months after preliminary orders come in on Indiegogo.

  • Because this is a first effort to raise funds, and because Indiegogo allows for Flexible Funding, a failed campaign and its funds will simply be reorganized and rolled over into a new project, until campaign objectives are met.

The Impact

     With your vital contribution to an initial print run, you can help make OOF DAH! The Organic Farm Strategy Game available to children, friends and families across the globe.

  • Don’t forget to check us out on Youtube and following the latest news and updates there by typing in “OOF DAH” and clicking on one of the over 200 videos dedicated to the game!

Risks & Challenges

     For the sake of transparency, this campaign does entail some risks and challenges.  Acts of god, for instance, such as severe weather, could impact the speed and precision with which OOF DAH is produced.  So, too, could the limited availability of source materials such as cardstock, paper, inks, etc.

  • As the content creator of a Youtube channel dedicated solely to OOF DAH updates, stratagems and tactics, as well as an affiliate marketer with Amazon, I feel uniquely qualified to handle whatever unexpected challenges, hurdles, or obstacles may come as production rolls out.
  • The best way for me to contribute to this Indiegogo campaign is to keep a strong line of communication available between myself and potential backers.  I fully intend to engage and interact with everyone, especially online either via email or via Youtube comments and suggestions.  That way, everyone can be alerted to whatever issues may arise in the preproduction and production process.

Other Ways You Can Help

     Besides becoming backers, people can contribute to the OOF DAH! campaign by promoting it on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, adding links to my Youtube channel (type in OOF DAH, like and subscribe), and just mentioning it in correspondences to friends and family.  After all, word-of-mouth advertising is free, and greatly appreciated!  Finally, don’t forget to use the Indiegogo share tools to further spread the word about OOF DAH!
