Mortals!

One does not simply become a legend without achieving a spectacular victory against the Fate. Yet, you made it - you have fully funded the "Into the Godsgrave" game and all the extras, including "Untold Stories" Stretch Goals Package. 

Congratulations. And at the same time - Thank you.

What's now?

Now 3 guys are going to have a time of their life - Grzegorz Szczepański in writing all the rest of the scenarios and rules, Grzegorz Nowak in creating more stories and lore for the game and Mateusz Komada commanding his legion of artists in order to create most breathtaking game possible.

You will hear  from me from time to time, as I will be providing you with updates on the project. I will present new art, reports from testing and writing of the game. I am also super curious how the Triad story will develop.

And now - there is 0100 in the night in Poland, when I am writing this update. Thankfully, relentless Jordan is going to stay with you in the comments until the morning. From time to time, The Az himself will drop here, so you can expect his voice as well. 

“There is a time for many words, and there is also a time for sleep.”

― Homer, The Odyssey 

Good night heroes, the fire has not extinguished thanks to you.

Mortals!  

Congratulations on reaching the 300 000 Euros! 

Everything we had prepared for you for this campaign is now officially unlocked! All the Side Quests, Monster Packs, game enhancements and bonus cards - all is there!

How 30+1 unlocks looks like?  

What you are looking at are 7 complete side quests that feature new stories, characters, events, miniatures, challenges, map tiles, tokens and cards!

For those more into pure fighting and conquering, we got 2 monster packs featuring 6 miniatures in total and 4 bonus hero cards.

If using tokens is not your thing, you also unlocked new Player Dials! On top of that, we’ve added extra items, events, character portraits and more!

And please, do not forget about the Harbinger of Chaos - it doesn’t like it! Adding an extra layer of gameplay, our tentacle friend will haunt you forever in further scenarios unless you “deal” with it.

What Now?  

Well now, all is in your hands. Make sure to bring as many people as you can to the party, as we are finishing the campaign very soon and those Lucky Duck Exclusives are not going to wide retail release and for sure - the free “Untold Stories Stretch Goal Pack” won’t be for free in our Lucky Duck Store in the future!

Share the link to the campaign with everyone - make sure your friends know about the journey and bring as many adventurers as you can here!

Keep the fire lit,

Chaos is Here

Mortals!  

After 13 days of hard work, you managed to let a Harbinger of Chaos into our world. And boy or boy - if this is a thing you really expected is to be decided by your deeds in-game.

To Submit or To Banish?  

The vote on how to deal with the monster was actually REALLY close. We've definitely got nearly an equal amount of “let’s talk about it” heroes and “You shall not pass!” adventurers.  We can respect that. Sometimes we fight with a sword, sometimes with a pen.

But this creature is even stranger.

The “Harbinger of Chaos” is a random and optional encounter. Once it emerges onto the map, reality becomes distorted. This is reflected in the gameplay by the “Harbinger Dice” which will be added to your tests. The Companion App will randomly ask you to add those to your various tests. This will result in different outcomes of your actions.

Nasty. But there is a way.

As the vote was very close, our Game Designer has agreed to implement both approaches into gameplay. Once the creature is on the map, you will have a choice to please it and reap the benefits of that on the spot, or try to banish the creature. Both choices are going to be time and resource-consuming. Both of them van result in the acquisition very powerful artifacts “not from this world” that will make your life easier.

But there is a third option - you can decide to ignore the Harbinger. But he will return in future scenarios during the campaign and… well - express the fact, he doesn’t like to be ignored.

The complete Stretch Goal goes into “Untold Stories Stretch Goal Package”.

New Monster Pack Unlocked  

For those who are more interested in sword fighting than asking questions, we have another Monster Pack. If you have torches handy now it’s the time to use them more than ever.

Total Stretch Goals Count

Without too much bragging - you have unlocked 26 Stretch Goals so far! That includes:

• Almost 6 complete Side Quests Packs with miniatures, tokens, cards, and map tiles!
• Player dials,
• Two Monster Packs,
• Plenty of new Hero cards,
• and Harbinger of Chaos monster.
   

How far you can go with unlocks?

The Harbinger Community Vote and New Unlocks

Mortals!  

Can you feel the fabric of our very own reality shaking? It’s the unknown, otherworldly presence of the Harbinger of Chaos.

The Awakening  

First and foremost, I will let our Game Director Grzegorz Nowak speak about the creature itself:

Neither a god nor a being from this world, this terrifying creature is known by many names. The Harbinger of Chaos, the Devour of Souls, the One-Who-Came-From-Stars, the Great Unknown. Its true origin is still debated, as it appeared only twice in known history.

Once when the mortals witnessed the first death of a god and once when the Great Revolt erupted. One thing is certain however, its arrival means terrible things are coming.

Now all is in your hands, literally, as you will decide what the arrival of The Harbinger of Chaos really means for the GAME. As this is going to be an optional enemy/Non-Player Character during the game, you also have a choice of how to handle this event.

You can submit yourselves to the will of the Great Unknown and receive blessings from it, or - if you feel lucky enough - you can try to banish it from our world and see if the monsters leave some artifacts that might be useful for your quest.

We cannot say for now what fate our game designer Grzegorz Szczepański will bring to life based upon your decision but the general direction of this monstrosity will be guided by you. Click the button below to cast your vote in the comments, before it’s too late! Decide: BANISH or SUBMIT?

We await your voice until Tuesday 13th at 09:00 CEST. Every comment on the KS Page Comments containing either Banish or Submit will be counted towards the final fate!

The Keeper of Relics Revealed

Thanks to your support we've been able to unlock the twisted consciousness of this dark tree bound to the demise of a fallen warrior. This brings with it two new player cards and a new unique location map tile that will offer up interesting side-quest action as you play through the campaign of Into the Godsgrave.

As a reminder, every pledge of 80€ or above will receive The Untold Stories exclusive expansion for free which includes all of the below content and more to come in our final week!

Make sure to spread the word about the campaign, as we are welcoming all the adventurers looking to find “Godsgrave”. We have plenty of Side Quests to discover, we just need more members in the party, before we venture there.

Player Dials unlocked!

Mortals!  

The last night was full of adventures, as you learned how to swim regardless of the number of tentacles grasping onto you. Nice - if gods were still alive, they would applaud you. “From the Depths It Calls” joins the Untold Stories Stretch Goals pack.

Spin the Wheels!  

This unlock is related to game components that will help you further organize the table during the game and reduce the usage of tokens if you wish to. I personally love my stashes of possibilities, but if you wish to rely more on digits - take a look at the player dials.

A Word from the Tower

We are happy to share with you a recent livestream of Dice Tower and we can say - thank you for your kind words guys! You can watch the reaction to our project in the video below (starts around 57m00s):

🇫🇷 New French review

Again, we have something for our Francophone Adventurers. Aline and Martin took our game for a spin and showed off a complete round of play. 

Dead but Not Yet Gone

If you are wielding a powerful artifact and die in battle, it’s not necessarily game over for you. The Essence of the Gods is known to work in twisted ways, beyond the understanding of mortal kind. So take a rest near this tree, Adventurer. We guarantee you will have a story to tell.

What’s next?  

Let me put it this way - we are getting closer to something BIG.

Whatever you guys would unlock, it’s “not from this world”.

Make sure to spread the word about the campaign, as we are welcoming all the adventurers looking to find “Godsgrave”. We have plenty of Side Quests to discover, we just need more members in the party, before we venture there.
