Felicia Day, Wil Wheaton on New Tabletop Gaming Show ‘Conludo,’ How ‘The Guild’ Reunion Movie Will Be Impacted by a Denied California Tax Credit

Felicia Day and Wil Wheaton, familiar faces in the world of online entertainment and tabletop gaming, are set to collaborate on a new television series focused on board games, titled "Conludo." This project marks a reunion for the two actors, who have a history of working together, notably on Day's popular web series "The Guild." The announcement comes as Day is also actively involved in a significant fundraising effort for a movie reunion of "The Guild."

The development of "Conludo" is intrinsically linked to the ongoing crowdfunding campaign for "The Guild: Ren Faire'd," the planned movie continuation of the beloved web series. "Conludo" is being launched as fan-unlocked content, meaning its release and availability are tied to the success of the Kickstarter campaign for the film. This strategy aims to leverage the existing fanbase of "The Guild" to generate momentum for both projects.

However, the production of "The Guild: Ren Faire'd" movie faces an additional hurdle: the denial of a California state tax credit. This financial setback could potentially impact the scope and execution of the film, and by extension, the rollout of associated content like "Conludo." The loss of such incentives can often lead to adjustments in production budgets and strategies for entertainment projects filmed in California.

The collaboration between Day and Wheaton on "Conludo" highlights their continued engagement with the tabletop gaming community, a space where both have cultivated a significant following. While the specifics of the "Conludo" series format remain tied to the fan-unlocked model, its existence underscores the enduring appeal of their partnership and the shared passion for gaming that has defined a portion of their careers. The success of the "The Guild: Ren Faire'd" Kickstarter will be a key determinant in the future visibility and development of "Conludo."
