FUNDED! And a Welcome to All!
about 5 years ago – Fri, Feb 08, 2019 at 03:48:02 PM

Hey there Trolls!

We funded! That was fast. We're so happy to have you here with us, and pleased to see so many of you back for a second campaign. Thank you SO much for helping us to make this game a reality.

Where We've Been

.

Where We're Headed

.
.

This game is already amazing the way it is, but what if we could add a 5th player? Our game nights just wouldn't be the same without that 5th player. So, selfishly, we kind of need to make this happen. 

The best part about us reaching this Stretch Goal is that YOU, Trolls, are going to be choosing the player colour. When the time comes, we'll send out a survey so that you can vote for your favourite colour. It's gonna be fun!

What You Can Expect Over the Coming Weeks

We'll try to update you at a regular pace so that we don't block up your inboxes with In the Hall of the Mountain King emails. When we do, we'll be updating you with information about Stretch Goals we've hit, Stretch Goals we're striving for, and finally any new Stretch Goals we've added to the campaign page.

We'll also try to get you as engaged in the campaign as we can. We find that the more we hear your voice, they more fun you have, the more fun WE have. And after all, it IS all about us, right!? 

We've also got some special events planned. So stay tuned.

Two Stretch Goals Down, ??? To Go?
about 5 years ago – Fri, Feb 08, 2019 at 03:47:56 PM

Hey Trolls!

Well, to say that you have done a wonderful job here would be a complete understatement. Reaching 2 Stretch Goals in less than two days is incredible. With over $ 67 000 pledged, 168%, funded, 852 backers, and 22 days to go, who knows what heights we'll reach!

First ...

Welcome to all of our new backers! If you weren't here for the first update, please take some time to read it. It's a good one!

You may have noticed that we added this graphic to the page:

We'll have the German, French, and Spanish rulebooks available on our website as they are completed. We're excited to be able to offer these rulebooks to our friends around the world.

What We've Unlocked

.
.

We did it! We have unlocked our first stretch goal. This means that we're adding that 5th player! Good thing, because I really didn't want to kick anyone out of our game night. 

What happens now? Vote for your favourite colour! Check out the main page and the graphic below to choose the 5th player colour for the game. Add your choice to the comments on the main Kickstarter page to get your vote in.

.
.

When we looked at making this game as affordable as possible for backers, this is one of the components that we decided to upgrade as a Stretch Goals. And we did it. We blew past $65 000 a couple of hours ago.

What's Next

.
.

After we smash through $75K ($57 000USD), we'll add new Spells Cards to the game. We are so excited about these. 

Where We're Headed

Once we reach $85 000 we'll add 2 new workshops. The Charmcrafter and Stonegrinder are just magical!

LIVE Stream With a HUGE Announcement!
about 5 years ago – Fri, Feb 08, 2019 at 03:47:34 PM

Hey Trolls, 

We are really rocking it. We're about to crack open our next stretch goal. We are so close!

LIVE Stream

Don't forget that today at 1pm PST (4pm EST) we're hosting a LIVE Stream with Jay and Graeme, the designers of In the Hall of the Mountain King. They will be discussing how they designed the game, what inspired them to do so, and what you're all in store for during the rest of the campaign. You can even ask them questions!

Speaking of what you're in store for... you really should check it out because there is going to be a HUGE announcement about the game during their LIVE Stream. Watch it here!

If you miss it, don't worry, it will be there for the rest of the campaign. You can watch it at any time!!

New Player Colour

It looks like Team MOSS is really rocking it! If you want your chosen colour to be our 5th player colour, you better get your vote in! You can do so by commenting in the Comments section on the main page.

Getting the Word Out

Trolls, there is only one way for us to reach all of these juicy stretch goals that we have planned for you. If we share and are vocal about the campaign it brings more people to the page. The more people that come to the page, the more backers we get. And you know that more backers = more stretch goals.

Here's How to Share
