3d Dice Renderings

If you haven't checked it out on the project home page, we've added some 3d renderings kindly created by one of our backers.  It really adds life to the game.  Honestly, it makes me want a copy more...

Dungeon Dice Rolling Along...

We're adding new dice pretty regularly.  In addition, we're arranging for a featured contest with Board Game Geek, which will start May 6th.  A healthy 20 days before the project ends.

And the winners are...

Hey, we're ready to announce the winners for quick backing the project!  The following backers have each won a free game:

Congratulations!

SECOND GIVE-AWAY!

 

(Exclusively for Backers of the First Kickstarter Project)

    Right.  Who still wants a free copy of Dungeon Dice?  We're gearing up for the relaunch on April 15th, setting up advertising and contests.  We're announcing a contest just for those of you who backed the original project.  Because we love you.
    Here's how it will work.  We want to encourage Backers to switch over to the new project as quickly as possible.  To that end, we will give away copies of the full game (with all stretch goals, delivered to your door) to three lucky backers who switch to the new project on the first 3 days of launch.  That's April 15th, 16th, and 17th.  (We'll throw in the 18th in case of time zone differences)
    Mark those dates!
    Here's how it will work.  On the 18th, we will randomly select three names among backers of the NEW project.  We will check to see if those names were backers of the ORIGINAL project.  If so, you win a game. 
    No matter what, we will give three games away.  So we may have to put names back and draw again, until we have three qualified winners. 
    This contest will be run through the Potluck Games site, and NOT through Kickstarter (which is forbidden).  This is a minor technicality which is unlikely to cause confusion.  One way or another, we will contact the winners and post them on this site.
    We're excited at all the interest we've seen so far.  Happy backing!

We will be giving away several more free games.  A few will be randomly awarded to backers who switch over to the new project within the first three days of the relaunch.  That's from April 15th through the 17th.

 

We will have at least one other contest open to anyone, with a couple games at stake.  So keep checking out the blog for more details.  If you are on our e-mail list, you should receive this information by e-mail with plenty of time to act.

 

Thanks again,

Taint of Cthulhu

Well, the current plan is to produce COPPER dice instead of aluminum, with a dark patina.  We tested the process on the right penny.  Personally, I love the idea of antique looking dice.  The problem?  Apparently the alloy we used on the test cubes is not pure copper.  It ages very differently. 

Sadly, because of this, we have to devote more time to experimentation, and it will delay production until after we run Dungeon Dice. 

I will send pictures of the actual dice when I have a better sample.

Expanded Rules

We've reworked the rules with pictures and color-coding, along with many more examples and clarifications.  This will be traveling along with some new prototypes for marketing purposes, so we're eager to get some feedback.

The launch is about a month away!  Patience... patience...
