When you pledge (or "back") this campaign, you're helping me bring this game to life! If you don't have a BackerKit account, you'll create one, and then your pledge will be collected from your credit card/PayPal at the conclusion of the campaign only if the campaign is successfully funded. This pledge does not include shipping. After a few weeks, you'll get a backer survey where you can put in your shipping info. This campaign will charge shipping separately, once the game is ready to ship out. Shipping for a single copy of the game should be around $5-7 USD if you're in the US, and it's likely going to be around $25-35 USD if you're based somewhere else.

Because of the extended amount of time between the end of the campaign and when the game will be produced, shipping fees and your address will be collected shortly before the shipments begin. I estimate shipping will happen, at earliest, in October. Before I ship out the game, I'll "lock" the shipping address - and you'll get a 48-hour notice before I do. Until then, you can always update your shipping address.

Once surveys go out, you'll have up to three weeks to fill it out. I'll send a reminder before the last day to take surveys. After that, unsubmitted surveys will be seen as a donation to the Order of the Dark Wheel. Fulfilment of rewards for said pledges with surveys submitted after that date may or may not occur.

Once the campaign finishes and funds have been collected, since the funds from the campaign are all allocated towards production and packaging and shipping, there are no refunds available. Sorry!

You'll submit a photo of yourself (shoulders and above) to be painted in the style of the other game art, along with the name you'd like to have printed on the cultist card. You'll also have to e-sign a contract giving me copyright of the painted portrait. You'll gain a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use the image in non-commercial capabilities (ie. digital avatars, profile photos, posting on social media, etc.). Note - I've learned from Boaty McBoatface. Names for cultists must be reasonable names for average human beings interested in the occult. Inappropriate names will be rejected and if we can't come to a reasonable, timely agreement, I'll either use your real name if given or I'll make one up.

You'll schedule a 20-minute Zoom session with the All-Seeing Oracle and her assistant, The Attendant. The Oracle will possess The Attendant and counsel you on your future. Remember, she's not great at giving specific answers about exact dates and certain outcomes, but she's pretty good at coaching people through difficult decisions.

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.

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.

1. Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
2. Select any add-ons
3. Confirm your pledge!

• You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
• Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.

After the campaign ends, you'll receive a survey to pay for any applicable shipping fees, calculated based on your shipping address.

Pay Over Time allows you to split your pledge into multiple payments over a set period. Your card will be charged according to the payment schedule (four monthly payments). Only available for projects that enable this feature. Learn More »

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.

For specific questions about your pledge or the project, you can view the Project FAQ below, search for your answer within the project, or send a message to the BackerKit Support Team or to the project creator.
