almost 6 years ago – Tue, Jul 10, 2018 at 05:42:36 AM

Hey Divers,

With $10 507 CAD pledged, 105% + funded, and 289 backers, we owe it all to you!! You are already making this game shine. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Let's get started on these stretch goals.

What We Are Looking Forward To

It took a very short time to get to get funded. That means we have a whole 23 days to make this long list of Stretch Goals happen. Let's take a look at our first two ...

Materials Upgrade is our first stretch goal and will be unlocked at $13 000 CAD. This stretch goal will improve this already amazing game to the incredible level of quality we've come to love from KTBG!

.
.

At $16 000 CAD we will unlock the 2 New Aquarium tiles to adorn your tables. With the Moray Eel and the stunning Squid, how could we go wrong?

Bauble Poll
almost 6 years ago – Mon, Jul 09, 2018 at 01:49:13 PM

Hey Divers!

We are humming along getting closer and closer to our 5th player Stretch Goal. I can feel it. It's totally within our reach!

Skull Bauble

A few awesome backers suggested that we change the Skull Bauble to a different shape, thinking it's a little weird that all these skulls have washed up on the beach. These are actually supposed to be skull totems carved from stone, but maybe that isn't so clear. So we are happy to consider a change! Several of you even gave us some suggestions about what you'd like to see as a replacement. So, here we are. It's your Bauble Poll. Click on the image below to take you to a Google Form where you can choose your favourite Bauble. And if you want to get your friends in on it, share this link with them: https://goo.gl/forms/2bgZCBAxZtR7edQ23

Good luck and choose wisely!

Until next time, go raid that wreck!

Happy 4th and Some Info
almost 6 years ago – Thu, Jul 05, 2018 at 02:18:32 PM

Hey Divers!

Happy 4th of July to our American friends! What a great day to celebrate. 

While the Diver Meeple Colour contest moves along, I would like to tell you a few things we've noticed: 

1. Judging by comments on the Wreck Raiders campaign, Anemone is the clear leader

2. Judging by comments on social media, Surf is the clear leader

3. This contest has generated a great deal of engagement. We've decided to run another contest in the coming days. Details to come very soon!

How To Play Wreck Raiders

This How-to Play video by Bebo is amazing! If you haven't watched it yet, you should! Bebo is incredibly talented at getting the feel of the game, showcasing the components, while also incorporating cos-play!

The Wreck Raiders Campaign Moving Forward

We've got a lot more of Wreck Raiders to give you through Stretch Goals. But we can only do that with more people backing the game. Help us out by sharing this link with your friends: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/kidstablebg/wreck-raiders?ref=6tjejh. I really want to see that 5th player added to the game.

Wreck Raiders at Gen Con

It is official! We will have a prototype or two of Wreck Raiders at Gen Con. You can either come by our booth and sit down to play, or you can hook up with Grand Gaming Academy and book a play session with them. There are still a few spots open!!

We'll be in booth 1805 in the Family Fun Pavillion facing the Catalyst Games Labs booth and right next to our good friends Grand Gamers Guild. Our other games Foodfighters, Problem Picnic: Attack of the Ants, and Haunt the House will be there for you to play as well. 

Let's get Wreck Raiders to move up the BGG Gen Con Hot List. When you get a chance, be sure to thumb the Gen Con listing it here!

What We're Backing

Once in a while we like to share a campaign that we're backing because we are intrigued by them. Today we'd like you to check out Planecrafters.

Click on the image to get to the campaign

In this game, two to four players assume the roles of Planecrafters working for the Knickernacker estate. Players compete to hire the best employees, assemble the most productive factory, and deliver planes to Master Pennington. Maybe the planes they build aren’t always the prettiest (or even symmetrical). That’s O.K. Master Pennington doesn’t mind.The best part for us is that it plays with the same age people and it is under 60 minutes to play. And the beautiful art, oh, the beautiful art!

Until our next Stretch Goal, go raid that wreck!

It IS a Happy 4th of July
almost 6 years ago – Thu, Jul 05, 2018 at 12:32:35 PM

Hey Divers,

Can you believe it? We did it. Well, you did it! You helped to unlock our next stretch goal with $25 104CAD pledged, 251% funded, 653 backers, and still 15 days to go!! We hit some major milestones today. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Let's See What We've Unlocked

.
.

 Let's take a closer look at these amazingly beautiful creatures...

.
.

The more I look at these tiles, the more I love them!

What's Up Next

Turning Wreck Raiders into a 5 player game is a no-brainer! So, that's what we're going to do when we reach $30 000CAD.

.
.

Don't forget that you have a say in the colour we choose for the 5th player. Please tell us your preference in the Comments section of the campaign.

What We're Working Toward

We've got crabs!!! Well, we don't have them yet. At $32 000CAD we'll substitute the boring old score markers with these Crabs!!!!

.
.

Crabtastic!!

Did You Know?

There are over 4500 species of crabs. Most crabs live in the water, but many can also live on land. They are omnivores often scavenging for their food. Crabs can move in all directions, but most often move sideways. The Giant Spider Crab of Japan has legs about 4 ft (22 cm) long and a body of over 1 ft (30 cm) wide. The Horseshoe Crab, is not a crustacean as most crabs are. On the list of endangered arthropods (animals without a skeleton) are 7 different crabs: the Taiwan waist crab, the Purple marsh crab, the Tree hole crab, the Dwarf river crab, the Lobster claw crab, the Yangmingshan crab, and the California Bay pea crab.

For more information on how you can conserve nature and help endangered species, go to worldwildlife.org.

We Did It!! Diver Meeples for All!
almost 6 years ago – Thu, Jul 05, 2018 at 02:14:59 AM

Hello Divers!

With $22 380CAD, 223% funded, 600 backers, and still 17 days to go, we hit another Stretch Goal! Thanks to all of you for the fantastic engagement over the weekend. Welcome to our new backers! We're so glad to see you here.

Let's Look at What We've Achieved

.
.

This game has become so much more thematic with the amazing Diver Meeples. I am so happy we achieved this goal because I'm such a huge fan of custom bits in games. With all the tweets and Facebook shares, it looks like you are just as excited as I am.

What's Up Next

.
.

Adding content, especially Aquarium tiles, is the best way for us to get the most out of this game. I'm so excited to add the Manta Ray and the Anglerfish as our next Stretch Goals because they are so incredibly beautiful. Let's make this happen, Divers! 

What We're Working Toward

You're just going to have to wait and see about this one. It's good! Tonight (EST) we will reveal the next Stretch Goal. This one, Divers, is going to make you want to back for two games ;)

Wreck Raiders in the Wild

Tim Brown, our amazing co-designer of Wreck Raiders has been taking various photos of the game out in the wild, like the one you see below. Follow him on Twitter to see where Wreck Raiders will end up next! @timwkbrown

Retweet and Facebook Shares
