Happy Halloween! We wanted to provide a special update today that includes both a fantastic treat for you and an honest report on the status of the fulfillment process.
Your Special Halloween Gift: The Halloween Party
To celebrate the season and to thank you for your incredible patience, we are thrilled to announce the official release of our special scenario: The Halloween Party!
This substantial adventure is the result of a collaboration between Gear Games and Coboldo Channel. The scenario is a thrilling blend of teen drama and cosmic horror, where your Students must face typical school rivalries and the most terrifying night Innsmouth has ever known.
At over 50 pages (drawing on the volume of content, e.g., detailed days, characters, and rituals found in the sources), this adventure is now available for purchase on our website. However, we have decided to give it to you, our dedicated backers, absolutely free. Please check your emails for details on how to download your copy immediately!
Fulfillment and Shipping Update
We must, unfortunately, address the ongoing challenges regarding the fulfillment of your physical rewards. We are experiencing significant shipping delays and setbacks, particularly those affecting US customs procedures and the management difficulties experienced by UPS.
These issues are, regrettably, caused by factors entirely outside of our control. We are aware that some backers have still not received their rewards, including packages that were shipped as far back as July. We are actively monitoring these complex situations and are deeply frustrated by the lack of timely solutions from our carriers and customs partners. We chose this time to offer "The Halloween Party" as a token of our commitment and appreciation during this frustrating waiting period.
Support and Communication
We are committed to resolving these issues, but we require your cooperation on communication:
If you have any specific concerns about your shipment or missing packages, please contact us ONLY via email at [email protected]. This remains the sole dedicated channel for all shipping-related inquiries.
We pledge to resend any packages that are confirmed as dispersed or lost. However, we must wait for UPS to provide feedback regarding the unresolved customs situations that are currently pending before we can take action on affected packages.
Thank you again for your patience and support as we work to get your physical rewards into your hands. In the meantime, enjoy your terrifyingly dramatic Halloween night!
we are thrilled to see that many of you have already received the materials from the High School Cthulhu campaign and that the first feedback has been so positive. It’s a great satisfaction for us to know that the game is finally in your hands and that the excitement is just as we hoped.
Regarding shipments, please remember that any issues or reports must be sent exclusively via email to 👉 [email protected].
Only through this official channel can we ensure quick and effective support. Messages posted elsewhere (comments, social media, private messages, etc.) unfortunately cannot be taken into account.
Thank you once again for your support, and enjoy your time with High School Cthulhu!
We have some truly exciting news to share with you all!
First off, all the High School Cthulhu accessories have finally arrived! They look fantastic, and we're incredibly thrilled with the quality.
In other great news, the reprint of Vulcania has also landed! This means two major components of your pledges are now physically in our hands.
Regarding Extra Curricular Horrors, the digital version was distributed yesterday, so please check your emails for your copy. The physical edition is officially going to print today, which is a huge step forward!
We know we're running a little behind our original schedule, and for this, we sincerely apologize. Our absolute priority is to ensure everything is produced to the highest possible quality, and sometimes that means unforeseen delays. We truly appreciate your understanding and patience.
Starting in the coming days, we will begin shipping out rewards for the "Freshie" pledge level and for all backers whose rewards do not include a physical copy of Extra Curricular Horrors. As soon as the last manual arrives (we're hoping by the end of July!), we will immediately commence shipping for all remaining pledges.
Finally, just a quick reminder that pre-orders will close on July 18th. This is truly your last chance to secure your copies before they become unavailable. https://hsc.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders
Thank you once again for your incredible support and continued patience. We're doing our best to get these amazing games into your hands as quickly and perfectly as possible.
We've got some important updates on the progress of your rewards! We're diligently working to get everything perfected and shipped out to you. Here's what's new:
1. The Yearbook is Here!
We've officially sent out the digital version of the Yearbook to everyone! This was the very last piece of digital content to create, and we're so excited for you to see it. If you purchased the Notable Pupil add-on, please take a moment to review the section related to your character and let us know if everything looks good. Your feedback is important to ensure it's perfect!
2. Extra Curricular Horrors - Digital Release
The Italian digital version of Extra Curricular Horrors has now been distributed! For our English-speaking backers, the English version is currently under final review, and we anticipate it will be ready in a couple of weeks. Thanks for your patience as we put the finishing touches on it.
3. Screens and Card Decks are On Their Way!
Great news regarding the physical components! The Ancient Screens, Dice, and Blasphemous Decks are still en route. The ship carrying them has already docked in France, and we're confident we'll receive all the materials very soon. We'll let you know as soon as they arrive at our facility.
4. A Small Adjustment to the Timeline
We want to be transparent with you all. While we were aiming to ship everything by the end of June, we've encountered a few minor, unexpected bumps along the way. This means it's highly probable there will be a delay of a few weeks beyond our initial estimate. We're doing everything in our power to get your rewards to you as quickly as possible, but our top priority is ensuring that everything is done to the highest possible standard when it ships. We want you to have the best possible experience right out of the box!
Thank you so much for your continued support and understanding. We truly appreciate your patience as we finalize every detail.
We'll keep you updated every step of the way!
Best,
The Gear Games Team
