This is it. Noon EST today. Whatever number we end up at, it's been quite a ride. I'm not going to lie, though. We'd love to hit $100k. Sounds like the tagline to a movie: Just a few hours and a few thousand dollars to go. To get there, we've added... (Read More)

We're sooooo close to that next stretch goal, where one of you gets to play as the thief. As we head into our final weekend, we wanted to go ahead and get the last one up to give you all something to shoot for. And it's a doozy. That's right, if we... (Read More)

WITHIN REACH: Kickstarter Live *** Stretch Goals *** App Info
April 3rd - via: kickstarter.com
I appreciate the patience as I took the kids up to Disney World/Sea World this weekend. It was fun getting pledge notifications while I was waiting in long, hot lines, but posting updates was a little challenging, as I had my hands full. Sadly, this... (Read More)
CLOSING IN: Extra Copies *** Meet the Meeples Part 2 *** "The Axe" Hits Gen Con
March 30th - via: kickstarter.com
EXTRA COPIESOne of the questions we've gotten a lot of is: How can I get extra copies of your game? That's a very nice problem to have, but it does present logistical issues, so we wanted to be careful about how we approached it. We also want to keep... (Read More)

Hot on the Trail
March 19th - via: kickstarter.com
Wow! You all really like computer beeps. I figured we'd be good for stretch goals until I got back to Florida. I'm happy to be wrong. Our next couple of goals add some difficulty levels to the app. First up, if we can get to $40k, is expert mode for... (Read More)
Pardon Our Dust
March 17th - via: kickstarter.com
That must be it. Got a little something in my eye. If you'll indulge me in a little personal reflection before we move into stretch goals. By all accounts, divesting from my law practice and starting a game company was a pretty wild idea. (And let's... (Read More)
Jackpot!
