Food Chain Island is live on Kickstarter! Here are your discount details.
🕑 Added 2020-05-26 13:23:06 +0000 UTCFirst a quick update on everything else: I think the next TWO packages will be heading out of here starting in <2 weeks. Just waiting for some last pieces to arrive here. Will post more in a proper update later.
Our newest game, Food Chain Island, is live on Kickstarter. As a member you will receive a discount, and all of the details are below. Any questions, just ask!
The first important thing is the link.

Here's how to pledge at Kickstarter
Choose the $1 reward level and adjust your pledge accordingly using the prices below. If you have any questions, just post a comment here and we'll get you the price.
Check out the spreadsheet below. Find the item that you would like, then locate your region and your patron level:
Hopefully that doesn't come across too small. Just incase, here's a link to the google sheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1cvRL_QrMqHFQPILI6HtntWTJrJy83qFj5NhhHqsWJKU/edit?usp=sharing
TOUGH SKIES EXPANSION NOTE:
The Tough Skies expansion will be featured in a $10+ level package at the same time this game releases. You do not need to pledge on Kickstarter at that level if you are a $10+ patron as you will be getting it here.
$20+ PATRONS:
As always, this game will be available to you at no additional cost. The solo expansion will come with it, and the Tough Skies expansion will be part of the monthly packages as well.
So what's the game all about?
This is the first game in our new "Simply Solo" series. These are solo only games with brief rules and lots of replayability.
On this forgotten island in a tiny corner of the ocean the animals are hungry! Your goal is to influence the wildlife - and arrange their meals - so there is only one animal left!
In this game, you will take as many turns as possible with a goal of only having one land animal card left on the table after starting with a grid of 16. On each turn, you must move one animal to eat another smaller, adjacent animal. If you cannot move an animal to eat another, the game ends.
Our good friend and fellow patron Matt Upton made one of his great playthrough videos. Check it out here:

That's it, a quick update. Now that this is behind me, we can get back to regularly scheduled programming. We have some games to give away and lots of updates to catch up on.

I almost did the same

I guess I was confused (because I'm new to this). I'm at the $20 level and pledged $1. I guess that wasn't necessary, lol. Oh well.
Gerald Uitz
I just signed up for the $3 tier. I always back the PnPs on Button Shy KS. Will I get the PnPs now as a Patreon or will I still have to back the KS?

Hi. Iβm a little lost on what to pledge. Can you help please? Iβm a $10 level backer (international though - in UK). I would like to get all of the Food Chain Island Components and Skulls of Sedlec. Knowing the expansions for each are coming in future backer packages, how much do I need to pledge to get the items not destined to be sent as a $10 backer reward?
Marceline Leiman
Is it possible to add games onto my $20 BGOTM order so I can save on shipping?
Baptiste Coulange
Is it possible to add the storytellers card with the "0520international" offer?

Just wanted to check what I should be adding to the campaign, I'm a $10+ so I see that I should do $9 for Food Chain w/Shipping to US. But what if I want to add Skulls of Sedlec stuff that I'm not going to get later?

I just became a $20 Patreon because of this game! I hope this solo series does well.π

No worries! I know it's a small operation and the pandemic hasn't helped. Thanks for the reply, good to know I haven't messed up. And I have been making use of the print and play dropbox π

No need to do anything and your first packages are heading out in about two weeks. Weβll post here asking which games you want. Just a little behind. :)
Brian
As a $20+ patreon, do I need to pledge at the $1 level on KS? Or will I just receive it as part of the BGOTM? I became a patron in March and haven't received anything yet, so I'm pretty sure I'm doing something wrong π
