Update 28 - Inserts, Minis, and Apologies
over 2 years ago – Tue, Oct 05, 2021 at 11:27:36 PM

Hey everyone!

We are now in October and you should have all received your game by now...but you haven't, and I'm very sorry. I can't explain why it's taken longer than we expected other than to say we definitely spent too long trying to make everything as great as possible, and for whatever reason production has amplified it even more by being a bit slower than we're used to. As you'll see in the video, we are finally to the finish line regarding tweaks, and I'm so incredibly desperate to get the games on the boat by the end of the month. Will that happen? I am losing hope, but it will definitely be in November if not. My desperation to get the games on the boat in October is the cargo that is already costing 10x what we expected will increase yet again, and it's a heartache even Count Rath would be proud to have delivered. But this is the world we are currently living in, and monetary losses aside we are still super excited to get these deplorable games to you. I just wish it was for Halloween, and sadly we are looking at the first of the year after the long boat rides. Feel free to join Count Rath in aiming your wrath at me (Rick), the one human more cursed than Benny.

Now...is there anything to be excited about? Yes! We finally got in the inserts for the Condyle Cove trio of games along with the Cube minis for Advanced D6 and Anthony and Jesse couldn't wait to bust it open and set everything up.

For those of you who absolutely abhor these video updates and comment frequently that they are the bane of your existence, please read below for a point by point breakdown:

1. House of Rath (Cultist Edition) - insert is great, except the collector coin section needs to be adjusted slightly before production.

2. House of Rath - insert holds everything accordingly, except the collector coin section will need to be adjusted slightly before production.

3. Condyle Cove - insert holds everything nicely except for the collector coin section which will need to be adjusted as with the other inserts. 

4. Last Winter - insert holds everything is good to go. 

5. Advanced D6 - Gelatinous Cubes and Plants of Eden tokens all look good and no adjustments are needed.

That's all for now. You've still got a little time to adjust your pledges if you want and also if you're moving between now and January please drop a line to [email protected] so he can help you update that info. In the meantime, have a great week and thank you for your patience!

Bidet Covians!

Just a SUPER QUICK update to let you know that our very own Joe Boyden (http://www.joeboyden.com) will be at the Origins Game Fair in Columbus, OH this weekend in the gaming/NCG area where he'll be doing play-throughs of House of Rath on the Biggen'd game set!

- Saturday (1pm to 4pm EST)

- Sunday (11am - 2pm EST)

Tickets are still available! (https://gama.configio.com/dependent?txt=Rath&cid=2436...)

So head out there if you're in the area and give Joe a fist bump and let the creator teach you how to play before it arrives at your home! 

Remember, as always, to wash your damn hands. Especially before going to see Joe!

Update 26 - This Just In!
over 2 years ago – Wed, Sep 08, 2021 at 03:55:25 AM

Bidet Covians!

We got some literature in today and as always we love sharing these steps to completion with y'all. Nothing new, per se, but it's still cool seeing these things "come to life". 

For those who refuse to watch the videos and take no joy in the little things in life:

1. Got the rulebooks for House of Rath and Condyle Cove in and everything is looking good. We'll pour over them this week and send corrections to the production house ASAP.

2. Cat on a Lamp came in as well and we're giving it a thorough look over. We've already noticed one error but you'll have to watch the video to see what it is.  Ain't I a stinker?


And that's all for now. Stay calm, stay informed and make sure to love each other. Till the next!

Update 25 - As Promised
over 2 years ago – Wed, Aug 04, 2021 at 01:34:49 AM

Bidet Covians!!

We promised you last week that as soon as the pre-production components came in we'd do a run down of all the elements and today is the day of keeping that promise! BEHOLD!!

For those of you who can't be bothered or flat out refuse to watch the videos, here's what you missed:

-Jesse and Anthony talk about all the sample components for the House of Rath game.

- Jesse almost stabs Anthony with a sharp knife.

- Jesse teased the D6: Advanced Starter Class (which you can find a full breakdown of over on the D6 kickstarter page update section)

- We still love you even if you don't enjoy our videos.


So yeah, just a quick update. If you're wanting to update your address or add additional components to your order, please head over to BackerKit or drop a line to [email protected]


Be well, be kind and wash your damn hands!!

Update 24 - No News
over 2 years ago – Sat, Jul 31, 2021 at 12:24:21 AM

Bidet Covians!

There are those who use the old adage "No news is good news."

Those people should be beaten.

We'd never do something like that.

We'd never release an update that in it's very nature is Seinfeldian in that it holds no intellectual or knowledgeable value. 

Nope...not us.

Have a wonderful weekend and don't forget to love each other.
