What do YOU Have to do to Get This Honour?

This Stretch Goal is a cross between a Stretch Goal for funds and a Social Stretch Goal. This means that no matter what, when we hit that $200 000 mark, we'll give you three new Trolls. However, we'd like to offer the experience for our incredible backers, to design the resources that these Level 3 Trolls will generate (with our guidance of course). Do any or all of the following to get entries into the contest:

Method 1: Share this Facebook Post. Hashtag #IntheHalloftheMountainKing AND #TrollContest and enable your post to be seen by the public. 1 ENTRY

Method 2: Retweet this Tweet. Hashtag #IntheHalloftheMountainKing AND #TrollContest. 1 ENTRY

Method 3: Share this image on Instagram and hashtag #IntheHalloftheMountainKing AND #TrollContest 1 ENTRY:

Method 5: Comment on the main page of the campaign (not here on this update), describing the troll you'd create if you won!

** Contest closes on February 25th at 12am EST.

Another One Down! What's Next?

Hey Trolls!

While our horde was busy dedicating the great hall in preparation of a coronation, a few of our stonemasons worked non-stop and finally carved a crown worthy of a future Mountain King! And while we are still looking for the best leader among us who will deserve such a crown, a small group of engineers started to make plans for new workshops which bring trolls more honour and power in their mountain. Ensuring prosperity for future generations.

It's pretty unbelievable that we are just a week and a half into this 23 day campaign and we have already come so far. With $135,000+ pledged, 335%+ funded, 1,600+ backers, and still 13 days to go, this campaign is on a roll!

What We've Uncovered

We Have Team Play Mode!!!!!!!!! Thanks to those of you who have taken the time to follow Burnt Island Games on Twitter and to those of you who asked your friends to do it too! Click on the link below to get to the rules for Team Play.

 Luxuriate in thicker cards and linen finish that you've all been dreaming about!

.
.

This I am excited about. The deluxe game will now come with this most beautiful 3D mini start player marker.

What's Next

We just love a game with plenty of variability. In the Hall of the Mountain King is certainly one of those with all of the new content we keep adding!

Great Halls Art

Meet the new and improved Great Halls. What fun it is looking at them close up! They add so much more flavour to the board! This is the first three of six; we will show you the rest as they are completed!

If you would give it a thumb on BGG it might make it to the front page. When it gets to the front page, more people will notice the game and follow the link to the campaign. The more people that do this, the more backers we'll get. The closer we'll get to that next Stretch Goal.

What a Weekend!
about 5 years ago – Sun, Feb 10, 2019 at 11:59:00 PM

Hey Trolls,

With $100,509 pledged, 251% funded, 1,223 backers, and still 18 days to go, this campaign is really rocking!! What an amazing weekend we've had. Let me begin by giving a warm welcome to all of our new backers. You are in for a real treat. This campaign has been so much fun to run so far, I can only imagine what it is like to be a backer.

Many of you have been asking for it. So here it is ... we'll improve the card quality in the game to linen finish when we reach $120 000!!

.
.

And my personal favourite this update, the Mountain King's Crown! Once we reach $135 000, we'll add a 3D crown start player marker to the game for deluxe backers, and a custom-cut punchboard crown for the retail backers.

What a Great Day!
about 5 years ago – Sat, Feb 09, 2019 at 12:41:39 AM

Hey Trolls!

Well this happened a lot faster than we had expected. But that is amazing news. With $ 86,000+ pledged, 215% funded, 1,060+ backers, and 20 days left to go, who knows where we'll get to!

 What We've Unlocked 

.
.

What's Next?

.
.

You might have noticed that we moved this stretch goal down from $95k to $90k. We did this because we were able to move a few later Stretch Goals around. We wanted so much to reveal this next Stretch Goal that we just couldn't wait!

What Else is Next?

Let's get more people following Burnt Island Games! That way, we can spread the word faster so that we can get more people to the Kickstarter page which will, in turn, get more backers to fund those Stretch Goals!

Once we reach 1000 Twitter followers, we'll add the Team Play rules with two Storage cards to your pledge. So, follow @Burntislandgm, and get your friends to do it too!

What We're Working Toward

At $100 000 (this is a monumental one, so we thought we should go all out!) we'll change the wooden stone, iron, and heartstone cubes to these custom wooden shapes. This is for the deluxe version only... check it out!
