Lost $60 on a Kickstarter board game that never shipped

I backed a board game on Kickstarter called "Dungeon Dash" back in March 2022, and it looked amazing with all these cool miniatures. The creator promised delivery by December 2022, but here we are over a year later with nothing. I checked the updates page and it's just excuses about supply chain issues and a new studio move. Worst part is, I can't get my $60 back because the campaign closed and PayPal dispute window ended. I learned the hard way to never back a first time creator without a track record. Has anyone else gotten burned by a Kickstarter game that just vanished?

Saw a news story saying 9% of Kickstarter board games never deliver.

Have you tried checking the campaign's update history before backing? I always look for red flags like vague shipping dates and no prototype photos.

The 9% number feels low honestly. Your $60 bought you a really expensive lesson about supply chain excuses.
