The Masticator Gate
over 3 years ago – Sat, Nov 07, 2020 at 08:16:52 PM

Greetings everyone,

I hope you are all enjoying your Dossier Decks! Fulfillment was a bit of a nightmare on this campaign and we learned a lot. Your patience was appreciated.

Today I would like to tell you about our newest Kickstarter campaign, The Masticator Gate.

This campaign features a book and card deck for use with Mörk Borg, thanks to their new third-party license. If you are not familiar with the Mörk Borg RPG it is a darkly genius games that is simple to play and visually stunning. Learn more here.

The card deck uses a similar mechanic to the Dossier Decks where you draw three cards from separate smaller decks to create something. In this case, you are creating demons with full art and stats for the game.

If this seems like something up your alley, please check it out and consider backing it. We are having a lot of fun with this one and it is already funded.

Thank you for supporting SkeletonKey Games and have a great weekend.

Greetings all,

Dossier Decks will be arriving at the Port of Tacoma this weekend. With any luck, they will move through customs quickly and we will have them next week. With that in mind, we will be locking down addresses in BackerKit on Monday. If you need to complete your order or make an address change, NOW IS THE TIME. This will give us a chance to export the info from BackerKit and get organized for shipping.

We are in the final 24-hours of the Darkharrow Crypt campaign. Back now for as low as $3 and get three new sets of Adventure Tiles in PDF, VTT, and (optional) at-cost print-on-demand.

Thank you all for your patience on this project, we can't wait to get these decks into your hands.

June 26th Production Update - Behind the Scenes Ship Tracking
almost 4 years ago – Thu, Jun 25, 2020 at 01:31:03 PM

Hey all,

This part of the process always feels painfully slow but the card are being loaded onto a cargo ship tomorrow and then will begin the slow process of sailing to Seattle, here in the USA. I'm not sure I've actually seen a Kickstarter do this before but our ship's name is the NAVIOS UNISON and you can track its progress HERE.

According the the sailing schedule above, the ship should be loaded and depart tomorrow. If you are are on the tracking site and are confused about the NAVIOS UNISON's ETA at the port being 7am on June 26th, that's because the sailing schedule is based on my time zone and the tracking site is based on whatever zone the ship is currently in. It's 09:44 as I type this up and already 00:44 tomorrow for the NAVIOS UNISON.

Anyway, if you have any interest, you can track the ship. I'll certainly be doing it.

And, if the sailing schedule is accurate, the cards will be in my hands to start sending them out to you on July 19th.

DARKHARROW CRYPT

In the meantime, if you like maps and have $3 our current Kickstarter for Adventure Tiles: Darkharrow Crypt is funded and blowing up stretch-goals like crazy. Check it out and consider backing.

Thanks for all the support and I'll update in a couple weeks with any news!

Wash hands, play games, have fun!

June 16th Production Update
almost 4 years ago – Wed, Jun 17, 2020 at 10:59:24 PM

Hello everyone,

A brief update since it's been a few weeks since I last checked in. Production on the Dossier Decks was completed on Friday. I'm told they should be loaded on a boat any day to start making their way to the US. I signed off on the final documents with our freight forwarder today. I'll keep you posted when I have more info but I didn't want to delay too long between updates.

I'm excited to report that next week SkeletonKey Games will be returning to its roots with a new collection of Adventure Tiles.

Visit our pre-launch page for more info and get notified when the project goes live. The Darkharrow Crypt campaign is being run simultaneously with The Book of Dungeon Encounters, for use with Fantasy RPGs by our good friend Philip Reed. Some of the encounters in this handy book will use maps made from our new tiles (and some of our old ones). Please join us on this new adventure.

That's all for this update. I'll be back soon with an updated shipping timeline and anything else interesting I have to report.

Stay safe, be kind, play games.
