Good evening!

Rather than type everything out tonight, I did us all a favor and recorded a short video covering each of the following topics:

  • Awards and the free upgrade we added to Tavern Tales
  • Wizards & Spells 5-player expansion update
  • Pledge Manager closing February 28th (if you need to recover your survey link, go here: https://dropped-too-deep.backerkit.com/) 
  • Tragedy strikes (but we'll be ok ;) )!
  • "Unboxing" of Trials & Tools mini-expansion

Cheers!

Hi folks!

As promised, we're reaching out to ask for your help voting for us in the Most Anticipated Games of 2021 contest! We recently showed you the awesome component upgrade we're adding to Tavern Tales (check out our last update if you missed it), and we'd greatly appreciate if you could now help us out with these important votes!

This year we have 6 nominations, as follows:

Dungeon Drop: Dropped Too Deep:

  • Most Anticipated OVERALL Game
  • Most Anticipated COOPERATIVE Game
  • Most Anticipated FAMILY Game

Tavern Tales: Legends of Dungeon Drop:

  • Most Anticipated OVERALL Game
  • Most Anticipated FAMILY Game

We would love if you could give all 6 of our nominations a check, AND THEN be sure to click VOTE at the bottom of the categories section.

Major art update, a free gift, and a special request
over 3 years ago – Tue, Jan 12, 2021 at 12:59:31 AM

Happy 2021!!

We hope you are all doing well in these first few weeks of the new year! We have an awesome update for you today, so let's get to it!

Latest Artwork

We have finalized nearly 100% of the artwork for both Dungeon Drop: Dropped Too Deep and Tavern Tales. Here's some of the latest samples for your viewing pleasure!

We hope you like what you see! The Pledge Manager survey is still open, but we'd like to encourage everyone to close them out as soon as you can, so we can best estimate our order quantities and such. We are not going to impose a deadline just yet, but please do make an effort to close out your survey when you can. If you lost your survey link, you can recover it here: https://dropped-too-deep.backerkit.com/. Thanks!

Most Anticipated Games of 2021 Contest: Free Gift!

Background: For this important contest, we decided to do something different from what we did last year. At the end of this update we are going to ask for your help voting for Dungeon Drop: Dropped Too Deep and Tavern Tales in the Most Anticipated Games of 2021 contest. Last year, we told you that if we achieved certain results we would include bonus cards in our next KS (which we did - these are already included in each of your pledges for Dungeon Drop: Dropped Too Deep!).
 But this year, we're going to reverse the order - we are upgrading all copies of Tavern Tales, in anticipation that you will once again be willing to help us out! We are so thankful for all of your participation and support thus far, and we're super proud to offer this excellent component upgrade for Tavern Tales, regardless of what happens with the contest!
So what's the upgrade? If you look at the artwork for Tavern Tales above, you'll see square "Depth" cards and circular "Room" cards. At the start of each game you randomly draw Room cards to place on top of 3 of the Depth cards. That card-based approach would have worked perfectly fine, but we always knew we preferred to make those components punchboard tiles rather than cards. Likewise for the Prestige Trackers.
 Well, that's exactly what we're going to do now! The 5 Depth cards, the 5 Prestige Trackers, and the 11 Room cards will all be premium quality punchboard tiles. In fact, the Depth cards will be DOUBLE-THICKNESS tiles, such that the Room cards truly "slot" inside them!! Check out this quick video demonstrating how this will work:

This is a costly upgrade, but one we feel is well worth the added expense. We believe this game deserves to be raised up to this level of quality, and we believe YOU deserve to have this leveled-up game experience! We also hope you will consider voting for us in the contest outlined below...

A Special Request

Once again we'd love to ask for your help voting for both these games in the Most Anticipated Game of 2021 contest, if you have a BoardGameGeek account. All you need to do is click the 2 links to BoardGameGeek below and give each of these entries a THUMBS UP sometime in the next couple days:

Please note that if this works, then there will be a round 2 voting wave that we'll ask for your help with again, in about a week or two.
 

Thanks so much in advance for your support!! Cheers!

Happy Holidays!

Wishing you the happiest of holidays!

We hope you're enjoying this holiday season as best you can during these very strange times!

We've been doing great finalizing all remaining artwork and refining the rules for Dungeon Drop and Tavern Tales. The Pledge Manager is still open for those who have not yet completed it, but we would like to close it out soon. If you need to recover your Pledge Manager survey link, go here: https://dropped-too-deep.backerkit.com/

We'll provide a deeper update following the holidays, so for now please stay safe and warm, and hopefully get in a game or two of Dungeon Drop with your loved ones!!

Cheers!
