MORE INFO:
You find yourself traversing the hostile, post-apocalyptic Badlands, chafing in the company of your fiercest Rivals. Many adventures befall you and your reluctant companions, and with each encounter comes an opportunity to outshine them. Will you rise above your Rivals, or be left choking in their radioactive dust?
During a game of Badland Rivals, players reveal Encounters, reading them out loud and choosing how to overcome them. Once a path is chosen, all players participate together, drawing from the Resource deck in an attempt to gather the most cards into their Packs, and finding useful equipment and collections along the way. They have to be careful though, because it is easy to overreach and end up with with nothing. After passing the last Encounter, the rivalry comes to a head and a final Showdown occurs. Players face off against each other using just the Resources gathered during the game. Victory Points are awarded for the quantity of Resource cards, with extra points awarded from special cards collected and equipped, and a bonus unique to each Character.
Badland Rivals was created with the following principles in mind:
- Fast and fun small box game with immersive theme and art.
- Simple enough for someone new to gaming, while having enough complexity for plenty of re-play and veteran gamers.
- Simultaneous game play.
- An adventure with narrative and choice.

11" x 17" Open Edition Prints
Open edition prints are UNFRAMED and unsigned laser reproductions printed on 11″x17″ acid-free heavyweight paper. Each print is packaged in cellophane and shipped rolled in a tube. The image includes a white border with the title, making it easy and affordable to frame without the need for a mat. Fits standard 11″x17″ frames, widely available at most frame or craft stores, as well as online. See example image below.
Giclée Prints
Giclée prints are high-quality reproductions known for their accurate colors and longevity, closely resembling the original artwork. Each print is signed and numbered by Justin Hillgrove, with editions ranging from 10 to 250 across watercolor and canvas giclées of various sizes. Prints should be kept away from high UV light. Justin may enhance, embellish, or remarque prints and, in rare cases, create additional reproductions outside an edition.
Watercolor Giclée Prints (Prep time: 1-3 days)
Watercolor giclé prints are created on lightly-textured, heavy cotton paper using fully archival inks. A small white border is included in order to facilitate matting (currently 1″ on all sides). It is recommended that you take your print straight to a framer, and keep it protected until then to avoid damage. Water, your hands, hard objects & adhesives can damage the surface of your print. See sample images below.
Stretched Canvas Giclée (Prep time: Up to 2 weeks)
Stretched canvas giclée prints are produced on artist-quality, archival canvas with fully archival inks, (print-permanence rated at 100 – 200 years on canvas). All canvas prints have a coat of UV inhibiting varnish. Your canvas comes stretched and back-stapled to a 3/4″ wooden frame, with black sides, ready to hang on a wall. Note: Due to some health issues, starting November 2024, most canvas printing and stretching will be outsourced, so you may see minor differences in color, sheen, stretcher bars, etc. from those you may have received previously. Justin has done a lot of research, testing, ordering, etc. to find a partner that produces canvases whose quality is as close as possible to his own. Canvases will still be signed/numbered by Justin. See example images below.
