PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: Werewolf in the Dark-umentary!
Tuesday Knight Games Unleashes "Werewolf in the Dark" — Now Available for Purchase!
The party game of deduction and darkness is perfect for summer nights.
After a successful BackerKit campaign, we are thrilled to announce that Werewolf in the Dark is now available to the public for purchase at TuesdayKnightGames.com!
To celebrate the launch, we just released a new 18-minute mini-documentary, Behind the Howl: Werewolf in the Dark! It offers a sneak peek into playing the game, the scary atmosphere it creates, and the CabinCon community of players that helped bring it to life.
Werewolf in the Dark is a fast-paced party game that plunges players into total darkness—literally. It blends the social deduction of classic werewolf with tactile intensity of hide and seek. One minute day phases to vote for elimination. Pitch black night phases where you hunt or be hunted.
Summer is the perfect season to break out this game. Whether it's a graduation party, family reunion, or Fourth of July BBQ, Werewolf in the Dark turns an ordinary evening into an unforgettable adventure.
Key Features:
- Designed for parties and large groups.
- Perfect for nighttime play—indoors or outside, at homes, camps, churches, farms, and more.
- No moderator, and everyone has a special character.
- No elimination. Once dead, you become a candle-carrying ghost.
- Easy to learn, fast to play, endlessly replayable.
- Pairs perfectly with summer vibes and spooky fun.
Visit TuesdayKnightGames.com to order your copy and check out Behind the Howl.
It’s time to turn out the lights and let the games begin. Let us know your thoughts on BackerKit or BoardGameGeek.

PROJECT UPDATE
Project Update: APRIL UPDATE: UK and others... It's here!
For those of you not in the United States Werewolf in the Dark (WitD) in your hands, you should have it soon!
TLDR:
TLDR:
- Fulfillment over seas happening! By the end of April, everyone should have their games.
- If anything is missing from your order, contact Quarter Master Logistics (qmlogistics.com/contactUs.html).
- If anything is broken or wrong, contact us ([email protected]).
- CabinCon is almost here! It's a Cleveland, Ohio gaming convention in a summer camp.
DID YOU GET YOUR GAME?
So this update is very similar to last months. The only difference is we are nearing the end of fulfillment. Everyone in the US should have their games. If not, let us know.
For those of you outside of the Unities States, you should have this in your hand by the end of this month. Some of you likely already have the game in your hands.
We inquired as to the "not-US" delay and were assured EU fulfillment has begun. There was a slight hiccup as the games needed to be shipped to British shipping hubs and "some processing needed to be completed."
Our apologies to those who do not have their games in their hands yet. It's always a bit of a game of estimations when it comes to who will get what when. There are many factors and sub-factors that make it near impossible for us to be able to provide precision.
QUARTER MASTER LOGISTICS FOR MISSING COMPONENTS
We truly hope you get everything you backed and paid for. Mistakes happen, so don't despair if you anything is missing. Simply contact Quarter Master Logistics for any missing components by going to qmlogistics.com/contactUS.html.
TUESDAY KNIGHT GAMES FOR FAULTY COMPONENTS
If you find anything in your package that is damaged upon delivery, please let us know by emailing us at [email protected]. A few people reported candle issues. Most candle issues can be easily fixed at home. Regardless, we want you to be happy with your products and playing as soon as possible. So please, let us know if you have any issues by emailing our support service.
CABINCON
Every end of April, we at Tuesday Knight Games kicks out all the kids from Hiram House Camp in Chagrin Falls, Ohio. It's just a short drive from the Cleveland Airport, and adults play games all weekend long. We call this event CabinCon. When darkness falls upon the camp, the evenings are spent playing scary games.
One new CabinCon tradition is playing Werewolf in the Dark on Saturday night! Many of my gaming friends from the game industry join in on the fun and even stay in my cabin. One year, my friend Quintin Smith joined in on the fun and spoke of it on the Shut Up and Sit Down Podcast. You can here about his adventures at CabinCon here:

I hope to see you there or at least hear about your adventures playing WitD!

TUESDAY KNIGHT GAMES FOR FAULTY COMPONENTS
So far, nobody has reported anything broken or damaged. We hope to continue that trend. If you find anything in your package that is damaged upon delivery, please let us know by emailing us at [email protected]. We want you to be happy with your products and playing as soon as possible.
CANDLE BATTERIES
In my infinite wisdom, I totally forget to mention anywhere on the actual game what kind of batteries the candles require. CRV2032 batteries are required for the candles. These are the round dime-sized disc batteries that are more commonly found in watches. When installing the candles, careful not to let the black switch fall out (see CANDLE QUALITY section below) and make sure the battery is faceup so you can read the writing on the battery as you install it. You may need to move the black switch in order to close the candle with a nice "snap!"
CANDLE QUALITY
When opening the candles, be careful. We tried our best to give you the most functional and affordable candles we could provide. They are dim enough for the game and flicker to add that eerie feeling to the game. Part of keeping the candles affordable meant not including batteries and having a loose On/Off switch which can detach and fall out once you open the candle to access the battery compartment. Don't worry, this is a "feature" (of the affordability) and not a "flaw." My personal testing with these candles is that they work really well and they last. If any of your candles don't work, please contact [email protected].
A VIDEO
This video walks you through a typical box opening, the contents, installing batteries, card sleeves, and even provides you some advice on how to create your first character deck for your first few games.
LET US KNOW YOUR THOUGHTS!
Thanks so much for backing. I really hope you enjoy your game and have few to no issues. Please let share your comments and questions. I'm happy to help!
-Alan (and the Tuesday Knight Games team)

TLDR:
TLDR:
- Shipping has begun! Soon you'll be charged shipping.
- ETA depends on your specific location, but late February to late March.
- Quarter Master Logistics might be sending some of you (not all) an email to confirm your address. It might be in your SPAM folder, but don't worry if you get or don't get that email.
- Let us know if you have any questions via [email protected]
CHARGING FOR SHIPPING.
Soon you'll be contacted by Backerkit to be charged for shipping WitD. Good news! The cost is generally very close to our original estimates presented on our campaign page. Of course, the differences vary based upon your location. With that said, we are still on schedule to fulfill this quarter. Specifically, you can expect your games in late February to late March (again, depending on your region).
QUARTER MASTER LOGISTICS EMAIL
Some, not all of you, might receive an email from Quarter Master Logistics (QML). The email might read something like this:
"We are reaching out today on behalf of Quartermaster Logistics, the fulfillment center that is handling your upcoming Werewolf in the Dark pledge from Tuesday Knight Games. At this time, more information is needed to process your shipment.
To ensure your package is properly delivered, please provide us with your Tax ID, as required by your national post." - shipping@qmlogistics
This email is legit as we use QML as one of our fulfillment partners for some regions. Please don't worry if you get this mail or if you don't get this email. You'll want to check your SPAM folders to see if you got it. Regardless, we are highly motivated to get WitD in your hands so you can start playing. So, as always...
LET US KNOW IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS/CONCERNS
Please always email [email protected] for all of your needs. You can also comment here and we will do our best, but we have Tyler Brown working as our customer support manager. He's always happy to take your questions and concerns.
