Mortals!
The last few days of our adventure were full of discoveries and encounters. Not to mention dealing with a Mad Automaton roaming free in the Stretch Goals.
But you managed to regulate him quite well and his story now joins the “Untold Stories” Stretch Goals box.
Six Is the Number of the Beast
“The Hunt for Essence” is our first monster pack. It’s different from Side Quests - it does not bring its own story but instead replaces a random opponent during the game.
This pack consists of 3 miniatures, each one featuring 2 Essence Eaters. Combined, it makes a nice number of 6 we all know and love in scary stories.
The “Eagle” Has Landed
Children of Raven are one of the most enigmatic creatures in the Into the Godsgrave universe - so to speak. I have asked our Game Writer, Grzegorz Nowak to share more information on those and one answer I was given was “No spoilers!”.
I guess we all will need to experience an “Untold Story” first, once we launch the game with a Stretch Goals extra content enabled in the app.
New Two-Player Playthrough Video
Our friends at “Before You Play” made a wonderful video while playing the first scenario of the game. Did they succeed? Did they help the lost Dwarven family? How many bandits they have slain? Click the video below to find out!
New French Video
For all of you, Francophones, we've got a brand-new preview of the game from The Boardgames Society AKA La Société des Jeux. Just a fraction of the Lucky Duck Games speak French, so feel free to share the translation in the comments!
What’s Next?
All I can hear are splashes in the water - maybe it’s a good moment to get a bigger boat?
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.
Keep the fire lit,

Mortals!
Our fearless leader, Az Drummond, is showing the game at the UK Games Expo RIGHT NOW. We have invited loads of crazy Adventurers to a demo game. Curious what they have to say? Check the video below!
Far more adventurers tried to escort “that damn caravan” than are in the video. You can see how awesome it is to be ambushed by the bandits in the wood below:
Look in the sky
The “Essence Eaters” in the end turned out to be a good bois, happily joining the rest of the Side Quests as a part of the “Untold Stories” package. What you should be worried about now is not walking on the ground.
Look into the sky - is it a bird? Yes! Kind of.
It’s all in your hands - whether “Children of Raven” will fit into the Stretch Goals package.
The Awakening
We are on the 5th day of the campaign and the progress bar moves ahead. Who has an idea what will happen once we reach 250K? Tentacles are (kinda) a hint.
Remember - the more brave souls join the campaign, the more “Untold Stories” we can unlock! Make sure to spread the word!
and internet Forums (do not forget about Board Game Geek!).
Be brave,

Soul of the Mad Machine

Mortals!
The soul of the Godslayer has been put to rest. Once a hero, now a deranged ghost, he is a formidable foe nonetheless. But that’s what heroes do - overcome the impossible. What he left is a formidable weapon, that will keep monsters away for sure.
Ticking Mechanism is on
You heard it right - this thing is not alive, nor dead at the same time. It’s powered.
Despite the fact that gods are dead for centuries now, just a fragment of their flesh, still pulses with energy, and can animate even the inanimate objects. Dwarven Engineers knew that and created an Automaton, but as usual - something went very, very wrong. But this is nothing that a party of heroes could not “fix”, right?
The Ticking Mechanism is now fully unlocked, which will result not only with new enemy, miniature, map tile and items, but whole Side Quest added to the game!
Better Australia Shipping costs
We are also happy to share news with our Australian backers - we managed to get a better quote for shipping to Australia 🇦🇺

New French preview of the game
Our friends at La Société des Jeux have made a sweet presentation of the game in French 🇫🇷
What’s next?
You tell us. I can hear howling in the woods. I see mysterious clouds in the sky as well. What does it mean? Only you can reveal it.
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.
Keep the fire lit,

Let's Get This Journey Started!

Mortals! You Have Funded the Campaign and Unlocked First Stretch Goals!
Over one thousand of you have joined our journey Into the Godsgrave, and essentially - you just have funded the game itself. Thank you for that from all of us as you have just created the beginning of a great tale.
Listen to Untold Stories
With growing support we can afford to write more stories for the game and introduce extra components for the game as well. Make sure to scroll down to the Stretch Goals section, as more legends are being revealed as you bring more and more adventurers to the party.
Our first unlocks are part of a previously unspoken gameplay mechanic known as “Side Quests”.
How Side Quests work?
During the Kickstarter campaign, you will unlock extra additional items for your pledge of "Into the Godsgrave".
Later on, upon the start of your adventure once the game is on your tabletop, the Companion App will ask you if you wish to play with the “Untold Stories”. If you choose to activate the Untold Stories, the app will start to randomly include into your gameplay extra elements as you play along. Once all elements from a particular Side Quest are unlocked, you will find yourself coming across more advanced encounters with their own storylines during the scenarios.
Return of the Godslayer
Without going into too many spoilers, there is somewhere a kurgan of someone really special. A hero from the Great Revolt, buried with his weapon and belongings there.
“With this additional encounter we want to show a glimpse of the past, the event that has consequences for our heroes living many centuries after the great war with gods.” says Grzegorz Nowak, our game writer.”
The miniature version of the “ghost” is 100% real though.
What about the rest of the Stretch Goals?
The more folks you bring to the campaign - the more extra content we can add to “Untold Stories”. Not to mention, various adventures can happen on the road to that…
What do you think may be awoken?
Man vs Meeple and Dice Tower join the party
Today, two more videos were dropped on YouTube by our friends. Mark from The Dice Tower gives us a great voice-over acting skills:
While David & Ryan from Man Vs Meeple talk about the deck-crafting and the Companion App aspect:
Give them a thumbs up👍 as the guys did wonderful work bringing the “Into the Godsgrave” closer to the community.
