Arrhhhhhhh Zombies!

Pledge Manager Q&A

Hi everyone, we are happy to report that over 90% of you have completed their pledge managers. 

I pledged for no rewards but Backerkit forces me to pledge at $29

All $1/$0 pledges were forced to a $29 pledge to avoid a loophole where you would have been able to add the game as add-on and pay no shipping for it. So don't worry about it and unsuscribe from Backerkit's email if you don't intend to pledge for the game.

I have not received an email from Backerkit

No worries! This can happen. Simply follow the link below and complete the process!

When will you close the Pledge Manager?

We will most certainly close the pre-order & pledge manager by the first week of August. So hurry up if you have not completed your survey!

You will still be able to modify your address after the PM closes, but won't be able to add or remove items!

Production Update

We are in the final stretch of visual work.
This week Mateusz is putting the last touch to both rulebooks (Game + KS Exclusives).
Here is a small sample of his work:

All our partners are in translation phase:
 - Portuguese/Brazilian : Coqui Distribution 
 - Italian : Magic Store
 - Spanish : Last Level Distribution
 - German : Spiel Offensive
 - Polish, French, English : Professional Freelancers.

Shout out!

 

 We are really excited to share with you Legendary Creatures, a project created by our dear friend Eduardo Baraf. This is his 6th campaign and this game is an absolute blast. You can check it out here.

Until next time,
Quack!

Arrhhhhhhhh Zombies!

The Pledge Manager is ready!

You will receive an email from Backerkit within the next 24h.
If by tomorrow evening you have not received it yet, please check your spam.

The Pledge Manager is a mandatory step in order for us to gather your shipping information, and for you an opportunity to add any add-on you may want.

We have very few Vikings Gone Wild base game available (retail version) which will ship within 72h after you complete your pledge manager.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out to [email protected]

Production Update

We just received the final rulebook, professionally proof-read.
This month, we are going to work with our partners worldwide to translate these rulebooks and cards in order to deliver all manufacturing files by beginning of August!

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend ahead!

Until next time,
Quack!

Heat Transfer SG are unlocked & Production Update!
almost 7 years ago – Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 05:53:51 AM

Arrhhhhhhh Zombies!!!

Kickstarter: $78,718  
Spieleschmiede: $8,981
VonKraken: $497
Late Pledge: $2,586

Total: $90,782

Heat Transfer Cubes are unlocked!

 
Final Stretch Goal is unlocked!
All backers have now secured a version of the cubes with zombie faces 'printed' thanks to a heat transfer process. We are also evaluating the cost to spread this technology to the retail versions. 

Thanks again for your amazing support. This great game just got itself a serious upgrade!

Update on Production

We have been busy for the last 3 weeks:

• Play-tests: we put a huge focus on play-testing the stretch goals cards in the last couple weeks. These cards needed a last layer of love to ensure they were practical and fun. A few tweaks have emerged of these tests and we now have the final form for the Kickstarter Exclusive cards.

• Retail version finalized: A side effect of this amazing journey in having the game play-tested by top reviewers and their crowd all over the world brought to our attention how important is the Zombird expansion for a more experienced crowd. Therefore we have decided to not release the Zombird expansion separately in retail. This means that the game will be more expensive than initially anticipated in retail, but this will be for the good of the play experience.

• Rulebook: prior to translate the game we need a fully proof-read and completed rulebook. After numerous internal passes, thes rulebooks are now in the hand of a professional proof-reader, Dustin, who has an amazing experience and background in rulebook work. 

• Visuals: all assets except the box + box sleeve have been finalized and approved by the licensor (Mobigame). It is going to be adapted to a DTP format and get on its way to our manufacturer.

• Translation: Once the English rulebook is completed, translation for the Italian, Spanish, German, French and Portuguese version will start in partnership with local publishers or independant professionals.

That's it for today! We plan to have everything ready for the production to start by end of August at most.

Until next time,
Quack!

Thank you!! This isn't over!!

Arrhhhhhhh Zombies!!

 
Wow! What an incredible 23 days.
Not only have we managed to unlock all our planned content but we are only $5K away from a major component upgrade. We are pretty confident we can get there because:

• The German campaign still has 19 days to go, and all funds raised will keep going toward that last stretch goal.
• We are opening a late pledge until the Pledge Manager opens which should take about 4 weeks to happen. All funds raised there will keep going towards the last stretch goal.
• We will sell some of our other products (Vikings Gone Wild) during the Pledge Manager phase. All funds raised there will keep going towards the last stretch goal.

In other words - we got this guys!!

Thank you!!

We are deeply grateful for your trust and your support. 
We simply can't wait to bring this game to your table and hopefuly bring the laughters we have had play-testing and building this game.

Let the craft begin!

Hugs to all of you,
Mateusz, Theo, Dawid and Vincent.

Magnet Zombird is unlocked ... and one last Stretch Goal!
almost 7 years ago – Sun, Jun 04, 2017 at 11:48:56 PM

Arrhhhhhh Zombies!

Kickstarter: $73,857 
Spieleschmiede: $5,651
VonKraken: $497

Total: $80,005 at 12.50pm CET - 1st of June 2017

Magnet Zombird is unlocked!

 
Introducing a new Zombird card: Magnet

 
We did it! This is the last extra content we were hoping to include in the game! 
This Zombird allows you to steal a coin from another player. It is a unique and powerful card. Use it wisely!

One last Stretch Goal!

Oh boy, we never expected to get this far and seeing the trend, we have been discussing a more expensive technology for the creation of the Zombie cubes.

Originally after many quotes, we decided to go for a sticker on one side of the cubes.
A much better option is a heat transfered print. It is a lot more expensive.
But, if we can reach $90K, we can do it! 

 So it is time to make some noise with 9 hours to go! We are only $10K away from having the most premium component for this game.

Thank you sooo much for your amazing support so far!

Until next time,
Quack!
