Shipping domestically in the US is included! The costs change day-to-day, but were operating on the assumption that the average shipping cost will be $9-$10, and if we're wrong, that's on us and we'll eat the extra cost. International shipping will be dependent on the destination, so we'll follow up with you after the conclusion of the campaign to determine what other costs may be in order. You'll receive a $10 credit toward your shipping costs.
First edition sets will be delivered immediately after the conclusion of the Backerkit campaign during the first week of June. You'll receive a notification requesting your preferred mailing address, and once we have it we'll get your set in the mail ASAP. Any custom or second edition sets will likely arrive about 3 months after the conclusion of the campaign. We'll also confirm your address before shipping the items to you.
We kept it pretty clean! We set the age range at 14+ just because some of the words were a bit too big for the younger audience. For example, "Give a eulogy for another player," might trip up some younger players. As far as maturity, however, our play-testing found that the younger players seemed to have a higher level of maturity than many of the adults. Not sure what that says about our play-testers.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
