Hey everyone! Hope you all had an amazing March! 🪻
We know many of you have been eagerly waiting for an update, and we want to share everything we know so far. Right now, we’re deep in the shipping phase - things are moving, but there’s still a bit of a waiting game while your games make their way through customs and into warehouses.
This is the first time we’ve ever shipped a project at this scale, and we’re learning right alongside you. We’re committed to being open and transparent every step of the way.
Here’s the latest
☑️ US - Your games have now arrived in the country! 🥳 They’re currently going through mandatory customs checks and inspections before heading to the warehouse.
☑️ UK/EU - Your games are estimated to arrive for customs checks by 13th April.
☑️ Canada - Your games are estimated to arrive for customs checks by 18th April.
🔜 After they clear customs, everything will be transferred to the final shipping warehouses, packed up, ready to be sent to you.
We’re in the final stretch now, and we’re honestly buzzing to get these games into your hands. This has been a huge learning curve for our small team, but seeing the shipments arrive and pass through customs is a massive win we want to celebrate with you.
As always, if you’ve got questions, hit us up in the comments or over on socials. Thank you for your patience and support - the finish line is in sight!
We’ve officially crossed the finish line, and we’re beyond excited to share that shipping is now complete! 🥳 If for any reason you're still waiting or have any issues, please don't hesitate to reach out to us at [email protected].

✨ What we’ve created together:
The Game: You now hold in your hands (or on your table) a beautifully crafted book, ready to take you on a journey through the forests of Hyhill. As you journal your adventure, the pages will become a testament to your courage, your triumphs, and the incredible encounters that await in this fantastical realm.
