9 months ago – Thu, Jun 13, 2024 at 10:10:37 AM

Hello Scientists,

This will likely be our last update before the campaign is over. I'm so stoked to say that we blasted through that Stretch Goal and the Crisis mini-expansion is OURS (and yours)!!! 

Before I get too far into the update, I want to thank you all for being here. What a fantastic community of excited gamers we are! I have enjoyed every single moment with all of you. You are creative and kind, and really seem to like Chris George :P It has been a joy running this campaign with you.

How to Save a World is Going on the Road

We're excited to be bringing a demo copy of How to Save a World with us to Origins Game Fair this June. While the campaign will be over at that point, the hype will not be. Join us at Origins from June 19th to 23rd in Columbus, Ohio for 5 days of incredible gaming. Make sure that you visit us at booth 1513.

If you are planning to be there, and even if you aren't, please help us keep the momentum going by giving How to Save a World a thumb on the BGG Origins Preview page here. We are please to see so many of our other games at the top of the list also (Endeavor: Deep Sea, Café Baras, Mycelia, Maple Valley, and Maki Master).

That's all for today Scientists!!

Some Great News - Maybe Even the BEST News

How Can We Make This Happen?

I know what you're thinking. We're at $123k right now. How are we ever going to make it to $150k in 3 days. Well, after having run 17 Kickstarter campaigns, there is one thing that I know. The last few days of a campaign always go really fast. So, I am pretty certain that it will happen. But we do need your help to get there! We really can't do this without you!

Interact With the Kicktraq Page

Backers, we again off of the hotness on Kicktraq!!! We were back briefly over the weekend. It would be really great if you could visit Kicktraq and then comment on the campaign page. For those of you who don't know Kicktraq... it's a platform that tracks the progress of Kickstarter campaigns. Believe it or not, it actually helps us get more backers. 

If you go to the How to Save a World page and click on the green "Visit Project" button, it will bring you back the campaign. Once back, comment in the comments section to help this algorithm move How to Save a World back into the hotness. This will hopefully bring the campaign to the main page and helps us get more backers. Thank you!

That's all for today Scientists!!
