Black Friday is coming!
🕑 Added 2024-11-27 17:23:55 +0000 UTCHello everyone! Michelle here. Hope all is well. Black Friday is coming in 2 days - Friday November 29, 2024! It's probably the biggest day of the year for Button Shy. This year we have 8 new releases, some super duper sales, and some limited restocks. Here are the new releases coming on Black Friday and the details on what’s coming to the club, as well as your special Patreon discount code. Scroll right down to find out more about each game if you haven't already heard about them!
First - here’s the link to the Black Friday games:
https://buttonshygames.com/collections/black-friday-2024
NOTE: THE GAMES ARE NOT SOLD OUT AND WILL NOT GO LIVE UNTIL BLACK FRIDAY; there are out of stock notifications enabled for the new games so you can sign up for the emails.
New content coming to the club:
RNSM (with free Vexing Letters expansion)
Agropolis: Harvest expansion
Naturopolis: Elevation expansion
Tides: Buried Treasure expansion
These titles will be in club packages over the next few months (likely up to and including the February 2025 package). You will need to remain a member throughout this period to receive them all. If you switch out RNSM when it is the Featured Wallet Game, you will not be sent the RNSM: Vexing Letters expansion.
These new titles will NOT be coming to the club:
Death Valley Solo Challenges
SpaceShipped Solo Challenges
Zebra
If you want to add these to your collection, you will need to order them from the website.
Coupon Code
Your special Black Friday coupon code is toomuchturkeypatron and will get you 30% off your purchase; it’s valid 8:30AM EST, Friday, November 29 through 11:59PM EST, Monday, December 2. The new games above and Black Friday Bundles are already discounted and not eligible for coupons; stock at our UK hub and pre-orders for games which have not been released yet are also excluded. But the rest of the site will be on sale. Please don't share this code - non-patrons only get 25% off. Also note that you can only use one code per order, so please choose this or your standard patreon coupon code, whichever is better for your order.
Website Restocks
We’ve been searching our warehouse for games that have been out of stock for a while and will be restocking things where we can. There will definitely be copies of Liberation, Naturopolis, The Perfect Moment, Moving Pictures and Championland: Volleyball. Some will be available in very limited numbers and may sell out quickly - you have been warned!
PNPs
If you are into PNPs the best place to get our older games is PNP Arcade, and all Button Shy PNPs will be $1 on Black Friday there - with the exception of a few brand new releases. It's the lowest you'll see them all year, and they can all be found at this link - prices will drop late Thursday night or early Friday morning: https://www.pnparcade.com/collections/button-shy-games
Button Shy Store
If you are local to South Jersey, we will be having some great sales in our shop! We're located at 55 Haddon Ave, Haddon Twp, NJ 08108 and we'll be open from 10am to 10pm on Friday. We have a nice selection of Button Shy, a small selection of other games and a big gaming space.
The New Releases
And finally let’s look at each of the new releases individually. Everything below was included in the newsletter sent on November 22, 2024, so if you've received that you don't need to read any further!
Zebra by Rob Cramer (1-4 players)
Each zebra has a unique arrangement of stripes. Create your own distinctive pattern to stand out from the crowd.
Zebra is an 18-card flip-and-write game that comes with a separate pad of small sheets. Flip cards to reveal polyomino shapes and add them to your sheet in one of the four different patterns. Maximize your points from each while keeping an eye on your total coverage, and make sure to keep each pattern separate in your quest to win!

RNSM by Peter C. Hayward (1-4 Players)
Your crew thought you'd planned the perfect crime, until a slip of the tongue put the cops on your tail! Outwit your criminal compatriots with clever wordplay to make sure you get away clean.
RNSM is a bluffing word game where players play letters or challenge their opponents to say a word from those letters. Play your cards right and you’ll get away clean; make a risky bluff or a bad challenge and you’ll almost certainly be apprehended!

RNSM: Vexing Letters by Peter C. Hayward (Expansion)
Not again! You’ll need to pull out all the stops if you want to avoid getting caught this time.
Vexing Letters adds 6 new cards featuring lesser-used letters. It also adds the Double Ransom variant which features two central words rather than one.

Agropolis: Harvest by Nick Smith (Expansion)
There’s always more work to be done on the farm. As your farm grows, make sure the most important tasks are getting done.
This 6-card expansion introduces a variety of seasonal tasks to manage. Follow each task’s specific placement rules to meet their conditions and gain the benefit of their featured blocks. Place them all successfully while still achieving your other goals to win!

Naturopolis: Elevation by Jason Tagmire (Expansion)
As the salmon migrate upstream, hungry bears gather and take advantage of their abundance to feed themselves.
This 6-card expansion adds new blocks that feature bears and salmon. Using the new placement rule, in which higher-altitude blocks must be supported by lower-altitude ones, line up the cascading rivers to ensure that no bear goes hungry.

Tides: Buried Treasure by Mike Berg (Expansion)
An ancient pirate left behind their secret riches. Now they’re yours to keep, provided you can find a good use for them.
This 6-card expansion adds to your beach adventure with doubloons and treasure chests. Doubloons are a wild currency that can be used for any craft, while chests increase your hand size. Create all-new objects to celebrate your unexpected bounty!

Black Friday orders are shipping, but it's taking us a while and there's still some outstanding. We will look for ways to make it easier all round next year.
Darien
Is there an ETA on when these will ship?
Seleph
Made my trip to see family much more exciting!
Button Shy
Not likely, but we're going to add as much as we can so won't say it's a definite no.
Pete
Awesome! I don’t suppose Mysticana: Wild Magic will make it to the store in time? I only joined the club last week so won’t be in time to get it in the next package and don’t want to miss out on any of these (have the first two via KS).
