Z-Man Games to Release Cwali’s Factory Fun

Zev Shlasinger at Z-Man Games has passed on word that he will release Corné van Moorsel’s Factory Fun, originally self-published by van Moorsel through Cwali in 2006. Shlasinger announced no other details at this time, such as whether the Z-Man version will differ in any way from Cwali’s – such as including the small expansion van Moorsel released in 2010 – or what the game will cost.

For those who haven’t played the game, a brief description: Each player starts with an empty factory, then acquires machine tiles by competing against other players for them. Each machine has one or more inputs and one or more outputs; all of the inputs must connect to a supply of the right color or a properly-colored output from another machine, while all the outputs must feed into inputs (without forming loops) or dump the colored ooze into holding bins. You can add tubes as needed to connect machines, but tubes cost points, so build smartly and keep the ooze under control.

As for a release date, Shlasinger said that he doesn’t have a hard date yet, but ideally he’ll have Factory Fun out in Q4 2010. This game has been added to Gone Cardboard.
