Not doing this to be mean. Just some constructive criticism. Your friend should look into why the game didn't raise it's funding goals on kickstarter. Kickstarter is usually a good gauge of people's interest in a game. There are tons of games on kickstarter every week so take into consideration he is competing with established companies etc. How does he stand out.
I actually really do like the art for the game and the box. I think it's appropriate for the game.
If they do another kickstarter don't include so many Rewards. I had to scroll down and read 6 pledge rewards to even see how much a copy of the game is. Trim that down to just rewards that contain the game or a PnP file. You're not in the business of making patches and pint glasses. They just detract funds you could be using to produce the game. Jamey Stegmaier has a book about crowdfunding strategies you might want to look into.
I back tons of games on kickstarter. This makes the game sound extremely vindictive Based on that description I personally wouldn't back it. But you're not catering to me. Is there enough of an audience for your game?

Also, youre not going to be making individual copies of games for donors. If you dont find a manufacturer (probably in China) it wont even be worth it.
I recommend Jamey Stegmaier's book: A Crowdfunder's Strategy Guide. His experience is with board games, but the book makes a good stab at product-type independence. His blog is also great. Lots of reading, but really sound advice about how to get started.
Because reddit is essentially a link aggregation site, simply browsing r/boardgames occasionally will help you find various content creators as their stuff gets posted here.
Another thing to do is to subscribe to various games on BGG. What this will do is that when people post their blog/video etc, it will tag that game and send you a notification. This should allow you to curate your own list of reviewers etc, for various things.
For Kickstarter evaluation, I use the very nice weekly Kickstarter Roundup thread (which can be accessed at the top of the sub) as well as browsing KS projects on my own looking for a few things (in no particular order):
