Latest Updates from Our Project:

More Art, and our Next Campaign!
12 months ago – Wed, Aug 27, 2025 at 08:55:54 AM

Hi all, we're back with another update for you!  As we progress with some of the last elements of the game, we wanted to share some of the process/ progress with you!  Here is a look at the final colored pieces that will be turned into Action Cards as part of the game!  Colors by Matt Battaglia! 

Next step is designing the cards for these images to be placed in!  We'll have another progress update for you regarding that when they're done!

On another note, we have launched our next campaign on Kickstarter!  This one is for Care Bears: Unlock The Magic - The Deckbuilding Game!   And similar to our Grimm Fairy Tales Unbound, there is a core game, expansion packs, as well as chase cards, neoprene playmats, uncut sheets, card sleeves, etc!  There are already 2 stretch goals unlocked, giving you even more bang for your buck! The game is solo, up to 4 players, or up to 6 with the Character Expansion Packs. Perfect for seasoned players, or newbies and kids.  Great for family game night, keeping kids off screens, or just enjoying a strategic deckbuilder. For players of all levels.  We thank you in advance for your support!

2 New Cards Revealed!
about 1 year ago – Thu, Jul 24, 2025 at 10:38:20 AM

Hi Everyone!  Wanted to check in with the latest updates and show off some cool new artwork for the game!  As you may recall, we had 2 slots for backers to get drawn into the game, and we did indeed have 2 takers!  These cards will be a part of the Action Deck, with the backers incorporated seemlessly into the game!  

The art was done by the incredible Guilherme Medeiros.  Go check him out on socials.  And a big thank you to Guilherme for knocking it out of the park!  Now, we move onto coloring these pieces.  But, we wanted to show you the progress, as it's also fun to see the steps taken towards final artwork!

On another note, there are still a handful of you who have not filled out your surveys.  We've sent several e-mails from BackerKit, so please take a moment to fill out your survey, otherwise, we won't be able to ship your package!

More from us as we progress on the project!

Survey Reminder!
about 1 year ago – Fri, Jun 27, 2025 at 12:01:04 PM

Hello all!  A big thank you to everyone who has filled out their survey through BackerKit!  We greatly appreciated it!

There are many of you though who still have not filled out your survey, and as you probably know, without that, we can't get you your items!  It's also a way to add to your original pledge if now is a better time for you!  

On the production side of things, our artist is still working on our two lucky "Get Drawn In" backers.  We can't wait to see how those turn out (and quite frankly, we're jealous!)

So please, please, please, get us those surveys back so we can keep things moving forward for the entire group!  Much appreciated, and we'll be in touch with more updates soon!

Surveys and Pre-Order Store
about 1 year ago – Mon, May 26, 2025 at 02:17:41 PM

Hi all!
By now you should have all received your surveys from BackerKit.  If you didn't see an e-mail, please make sure to check your spam folder.  We cannot fulfill your rewards without you filling out this information!  If you haven't received your survey and it's not in your spam folder, please feel free to reach out to us, and we'll make sure to re-send it.

Our BackerKit Pre-Launch store is now live as well!  So, if you wanted even more Grimm Fairy Tales: Unbound goodness, it's never too late!  Please feel free to share the direct link (below) with anyone you think might be interested! Pre-orders will stay open until we finalize our production!

And finally, an update on production.  Thanks to the surveys, we have received the photo references for the 2 lucky backers who are going to get drawn into the game!  Our artist is ready to go, and will be getting started on those right after he finishes his prior commitments!  Not only is this exciting for those backers, but it's another step closer to getting into production on the game!

That's it for now, and we'll keep you updated as things progress!  Get those surveys done if you haven't already, and thank you all again for your support!

Tariff Update
over 1 year ago – Wed, May 14, 2025 at 02:18:26 PM

Hello all.  

After seeing your feedback on the tariffs and our handling of it, we went back to BackerKit to see what could be done.  It turns out, our assumption was incorrect that we had to include the tariffs now as a part of the survey. They actually do have the capabilities to send out surveys to collect addresses, sales tax, and any additional pledges NOW, and wait to send another e-mail regarding tariffs if necessary at a later date closer to our product being shipped from China.  

We apologize for any unnecessary stress or concern this caused.  We were under the impression that we had to handle this now, without really knowing what the final tariffs would be.  We feel this is the course correction that is needed for everyone.  Thank you for understanding the need for the tariffs to be collected, and we completely understand the concerns that were voiced regarding the timing of that.  A genuine "thank you" to those of you who brought this to our attention, and got us to right the ship on this.

That being said, keep an eye on your e-mails for the surveys from BackerKit!  They are coming soon!
