(This update is posted across all campaigns, if you backed multiple projects, you can skip duplicate notifications of campaigns with the same subject. We are working with BackerKit to consolidate event-wide notifications, aiming to post a single message regardless of the number of campaigns you backed).
Dear Backers,
Together, we have reached a historic milestone in Latin America. Thanks to your unwavering support, GameFiesta has achieved a first-of-its-kind collaborative crowdfunding event in Latin America, allowing a dozen developers to bring their games in English to the world and in Spanish to more corners of Ibero-America.
Without you, none of this would be possible—you, the people who play games, are the reason why designers and publishers create games and thanks to you these games will reach tables in all continents!
Next Steps
Processing Payments: BackerKit has begun processing charges. If you encounter any payment errors, you will have the chance to update your information within the next 12 days.
Note: If you backed multiple campaigns, your bank might flag multiple charges as suspicious; please keep an eye out to authorize them.
Mega Pledge Manager (October): We will launch a unified solution to manage everything in one cart:
Rewards from all campaigns
Daily giveaway prizes
Reservation rewards
Loyalty rewards
Cross-backing digital rewards
Unlocked Achievement (free stickers!)
Shipping fees: In the pledge manager you will see the final calculation of shipping (with your multi-campaign discount applied) and regional taxes. As noted in the campaign, these are paid at a later stage in the pledge manager.
Adding Games: You will be able to add additional games in the Mega Pledge Manager. While they no longer qualify for the specific shipping discount offered during the live campaign, shipping remains more efficient when bundling more games.
Additional information: Any additional campaign-specific options and securely entering your shipping address will happen at the pledge manager stage.
Production & shipping schedule: Some projects have started production already, others are in the last stage of file prepress. This process will take a few months to complete and we aim to deliver games worldwide by March 2026. The following updates will include news about production status.
We are deeply grateful for your support. We invite you to share your feedback and suggestions in the discussion forums; we are committed to providing you with the best possible experience as we move forward.
Thank you for being part of this journey!
¡Qué fiesta!

Queridos Backers,
Juntos, hemos alcanzado un hito histórico en Latinoamérica. Gracias a tu apoyo incondicional, GameFiesta ha logrado por primera vez un crowdfunding colaborativo en Latinoamérica, permitiendo a una docena de desarrolladores de juegos llevar sus creaciones en inglés a todo el mundo y en español a más rincones de Iberoamérica.
Sin ustedes, esto no sería posible; ustedes son el motor creativo y ahora gracias a ustedes, ¡estos juegos llegarán a mesas de todos los continentes!.
Próximos pasos
Procesamiento de pagos: BackerKit ha comenzado a realizar el cobro a las tarjetas registradas. Si experimentas un error, habrá oportunidad de corregirlo durante los próximos 12 días.
Nota: Si apoyaste varias campañas, tu banco podría marcar múltiples cobros como inusuales; te sugerimos estar atento para autorizarlos.
Mega Pledge Manager (Octubre): Lanzaremos una solución unificada para gestionar todo en un solo carrito:
Recompensas de todas las campañas
Premios de sorteos diarios
Recompensas de reserva temprana
Recompensas de lealtad
Recompensas digital de promoción cruzada entre duplas de campañas.
Logro desbloqueado (Stickers gratis!)
Cargos de envío: Encontrarás el cálculo final de envío (con descuento por múltiples campañas apoyadas) e impuestos regionales en el administrador de recompensas.Como se menciona en la campaña, estos deben ser cubiertos (pagados) en una etapa siguiente.
Añadir juegos: Podrás sumar juegos adicionales en el Mega Pledge Manager. Aunque ya no aplican para el descuento de envío de la etapa live, el costo de envío sigue siendo más eficiente al consolidar más productos.
Información adicional: En el administrador de recompensas podrás introducir de manera segura tu dirección de envío así como contestar otras preguntas para completar tu envío o cualquier información requerida para completar recompensas de todas las campañas.
Calendario de producción y envío: Algunos proyectos ya han comenzado la producción, mientras que otros están en la última etapa de preparación de archivos. Este proceso tardará unos meses en completarse y nuestro objetivo es entregar los juegos a todo el mundo antes de marzo de 2026. Las siguientes actualizaciones incluirán noticias sobre el estado de la producción.
Estamos profundamente agradecidos. Te invitamos a compartir comentarios y sugerencias en los foros de discusión; estamos comprometidos a brindar la mejor experiencia hasta que tengas tus juegos en mano.
¡Gracias por ser parte de esta fiesta de juegos desarrollados en países de habla hispana!
It is very well worth your time and might make you chuckle.
As part of GameFiesta, every backer in each of the campaigns participate in a giveaway (actually 1 per project so a total for 14 draws) to win more games
Congratulations to Day 1 (yesterday) and Day 2 (today) winners!
Todd Suesz | zs***@ | Prize: My Name Was... (Print and Play)
Kragg | mo***4@ | Prize: Extra copy of Quartz: The Card Game
Tomorrow prize is Frogs on the Hunt! Prizes are assigned according to their funding percentage progress
Also big shoutout to My Name Was... for being the first funded project of GameFiesta! A survival Print and Play game of mid weight where you get to place the zombie hoard for adjacent players.
PRO TIP: Back other GameFiesta campaigns with low backer count—or tell a friend!
They need the most support
You get best chances to win in daily giveaways
You also get shipping discount for backing multiple projects!
As part of 🪅 GameFiesta celebration, each participating campaign will give away one GameFiesta game to one of its own (lucky) backers every day while the campaign is live.
This thread details the rules (below) and for your convenience, you can check the winners every day in this link to the forum where draws take place with BoardGameGeek's Geek Randomizer for full transparency:
There are currently 14 participating campaigns, meaning that each day there will be 14 independent giveaway draws.
The thread in BoardGameGeek linked above the banner serves as the official public record of the daily randomizations.
The goal is to make the selection process transparent and independently verifiable while keeping individual backer full information private.
How the daily draws work:
1. Daily cutoff — 23:59 UTC
At 23:59 UTC each day, the publicly displayed backer count for each participating campaign is recorded, which establishes the number of participants for that day's draw.
The cutoff is fixed at 23:59 UTC. Pledges or changes occurring after the cutoff are considered for the following day's giveaway.
2. Private participant record
After the cutoff, we export the BackerKit CSV for each campaign.
These CSV files are kept private and are used only to identify the participant corresponding to the winning random number.
The resulting number identifies the participant's position in the corresponding private cutoff CSV.
4. Prize In order to comply with BoardGameGeek terms of use, we need to keep posts without promotional info, which is why there is little mention of the Giveaway itself or crowdfunding details in there.
Every reply in the thread includes mention of a Featured Game, which is the given prize for that day.
GameFiesta organizers handle prize assignation in the pledge manager stage and fulfillment according to the applicable campaign plan.
In order to keep the prize, backer should not cancel their pledge in that campaign.
It is possible to win multiple prizes by backing multiple campaigns or in the same campaign on different days (likely with a different prize). Check out the campaigns with the least backers since those have the best odds!
In the event a project is not funded, winning draws from that campaign will be forfeit. Winning draws from other campaigns but featuring a non-funded prize will change to a different game at the pledge manager stage.
You will see your prizes after the campaigns end, at the pledge manager stage. Prizes do not count towards the shipping discounts (you must actually pledge to different campaigns to get the shipping discounts).
5. Public record
Each day's 14 results will be posted in the BoardGameGeek thread at some time after the cut-off date. The exact posting time may vary slightly because the process is performed manually.
Every roll is final. The actual random rolls are generated using BoardGameGeek's Geek Randomizer (full details here).
BGG's Geek Randomizer records information about each roll, including the roller, roll expression, result, comment, and date. Rolls cannot be deleted or detached from the post in which they were created.
The public record will contain information necessary to verify each draw, such as:
- Campaign name
- Number of participants at cutoff
- Randomizer expression
- Random result
Winner identification and prize fulfillment are handled privately through the GameFiesta campaign records and will likely be shared in campaign updates of their own campaign, mentioning username but masking email to show only a few characters with no domain.
🍀 Good luck! Thank you for supporting GameFiesta and the participating tabletop game campaigns.
