Latest Updates from Our Project:

US Backer Update
over 3 years ago – Thu, Sep 17, 2020 at 06:16:44 AM

Just a quick note to let US backers know that the base game will ship separately from any other items that your ordered/pledged. The follow-on items will be shipped within the next week. It turns out it was cheaper for us to ship items separately!

Special on Other APE Games for Europe and US Customers
over 3 years ago – Sun, Aug 02, 2020 at 12:21:04 AM

If you are a US or Europe-based backer, and want a deal on a previous APE title, we'll give you 25% off and no extra shipping cost to add Martin Wallace's Moa to your Stygian Society pledge. This game comes with the Kickstarter exclusives. We got an inventory report from the fulfillment company in Germany that shows we have 5 left there, and we also have a few copies of these games left in our Houston warehouse. If interested, let me know soon and I'll unlock your account so that you can add it to your pledge. Moa is sold out worldwide, and is no longer available through normal distribution.

Shipping Update
over 3 years ago – Tue, Jul 28, 2020 at 10:47:31 PM

We're excited to get this into your hands - and it's getting really close! Once you get your copy, be sure to post pictures of your mighty cube towers in action!

Asia: Games arrived in Asia last week and have begun shipping. 

Europe: Games arrived at the port in Hamburg and are unpacking. Once they go through customs they'll be sent through to the fulfillment center near Berlin to begin shipping.

Australia/New Zealand: These will arrive at the fulfillment company later this week. 

US/Canada/Rest of the World: Games to the US, Canada and the rest of the world are in customs. I know this because they came to me asking for more money. As mentioned, once they arrive in Michigan, the orders will be split out to Houston and Canada. So, still about 3 weeks left to wait.

Someone indicated they're getting COVID customs emails from DHL asking for money to complete their delivery. Emails like that shouldn't be related to The Stygian Society. In most cases, DHL isn't used for shipping. Whenever you ever get emails like this, be sure to check the validity of the link before clicking!

Dealers in Hope

We're running our next Kickstarter, Dealers in Hope, at virtual Gen Con this weekend via Tabletopia.

Dealers in Hope is a deck-building game of conquest in a future broken by dramatic a rise in sea levels. DiH was designed by Kevin G. Nunn (Rolling Freight, duck! duck! GO!) with truly inspired art by Dofresh.

There are still seats available for the Friday night session. And since it's virtual, you can sit at home and play in your Speedo - no one will complain!

Stygian Printing Final Stages and Island Siege KS Last 24 Hours
almost 4 years ago – Sun, May 24, 2020 at 09:19:54 PM

The Stygan Society is in the final stages and should be ready to ship from the factory in the next couple weeks! After a lot of tower testing, I decided to create more 'blockage' inside. The tolerances on the final tower are tighter than previous mock-ups, which is great, but it caused the cubes to bounce around more inside the tower, kind of like a tight trampoline. This extra bouncing meant that too many cubes fell from the tower. We fixed this by converting level 5 from an 'empty'  level to one with obstacles, like this:

Having these obstacles on the top level slows down the cubes so that more stay inside. A few stop when they hit the 5th level, but more importantly they get slowed down and don't bounce as much on lower levels, and can get stuck there.

I'll publish another update when the games start shipping to fulfillment centers.

Island Siege Kickstarter

Additionally, our Island Siege Kickstarter is in its final 24 hours. The project funded right away, and we hit all stretch goals. Now we're adding an extra Campaign Coin each time we reach another $1K! So this is a good time to get a great deal - just $29!
