For Critical Success in LudoCherry's Geeky Clothing Line
With
shirts and skirts now available in five "subtle but geeky" patterns
inspired by tabletop games, LudoCherry will let you wear your love for
board games on your sleeve - no matter where you are.
March 9, 2020 - LudoCherry is a new kind of geeky clothing, created to
reference iconic elements of tabletop games while blending in with your
everyday wardrobe. Those polka dots? They're D20s! The floral design? Look
closer and you can spot the hidden meeples!
With their subtle references,
LudoCherry's shirts and skirts are perfect for game night, the office, or
anything in between.
After launching on Kickstarter onMarch 3rd, LudoCherry reached their goal of $25,000 AUD in just
under 8 hours, and has now surpassed $75,000 and 310% funded.
They have also added a fifth fabric
design option, inspired by the mystery and madness of Lovecraftian
horror. Look closely and amongst the swirling tentacles you'll see items
vital to every aspiring investigator, including magnifying glasses, books, and
of course some cryptic occult symbols...

We had the opportunity to send early
samples to some of our favourite personalities in the tabletop industry, and
here’s what just a few of them had to say:
Jamey Stegmaier, Stonemaier Games: “My favorite tabletop game-themed clothing provides a
hearty wink at those in the know while simply looking and feeling like
fashionable garments to everyone else. LudoCherry accomplishes those goals
perfectly.”
Rodney Smith, Watch It Played: “These patterns are a wink and a nod to the hobby, without
hitting you over the head with it… and I love that!”
Mandi Hutchinson, The Dice Tower: “A skirt that has a vintage vibe and gamer flair. Who says
fashion and gaming can't be comfortable and fun?”
LudoCherry's Kickstarter campaign is
live until March 26, and can be found here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/markh110/ludocherry-stylish-tabletop-shirts-and-skirts?ref=66djt9
