Hi recruits!

We have received a very important and fun package from our factory....blank paper!  Or more specifically, lots of different types of blank paper.  To make this mystery game realistic and immersive, we are making sure that all of our documents are printed exactly how they would be in the real world.  That means newspaper articles are on newsprint, magazine pages are on magazine print, photos are glossy, and birthday cards are the right kind of cardstock!  We are checking the types of paper from the factory now to make sure that every little detail feels authentic to you.  Except the floppy discs aren't real floppy discs, unfortunately.  But other than that!

Additionally, our factory also sent along samples of the dice and pin add-ons!  The dice look amazing, and it's so incredible to watch the eyes rolling around inside them as they go!  The pin sample came out much too small, but don't worry, we're working with the factory to ensure that the size is correct for our actual print run.  Wouldn't want you to go to work with subpar identification--who knows what might happen!

We'll be back next month with another update as the production process moves forward!

Hi recruits!

Hope you've all had a great new year!  Things are chugging along behind the scenes here as we move into the final stages of playtesting.  Three of our cases are ahead of the curve; we've already finished playtesting them and have moved on to putting together the finishing details.  This includes setting up our website full of helpful hints if you get stuck while playing, and the end of game quizzes you'll take to determine how well you solved your case.  There might even be a few extra, secret websites that will be integrated into gameplay--but I won't spoil more about that so that you can all see it for yourselves! The other three cases are still in final playtesting. We've got an amazing crew of volunteers--both Magnus and non-Magnus fans, who are playing the cases to make sure everything about the mysteries is clear, correct, and fun!  We'll keep playtesting until the cases run smoothly and hit the right difficulty level that we're looking for.  Not so easy that you aren't challenged, but still solvable for a dedicated investigator! 

Everything is on time and on track for all six cases to be finished playtesting by the end of March. That means our production is on track to start in April, and ultimately our delivery to you will happen in September. 

We'll be back with another update as we complete playtesting and enter production.
