Project Update: Designer Update 1: Fully Funded! Stretch Goals Reached! Prestige at Gen Con! and Late Pledges!
Hey backers!
Fritz, the designer, here.
I just wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for helping to bring Prestige to life! I know Jack already let everyone know, but if you missed it, we fully funded the campaign! Not only that, but we smashed through the last stretch goal in the final hours too!
Stretch Goals Met:

I just wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for helping to bring Prestige to life! I know Jack already let everyone know, but if you missed it, we fully funded the campaign! Not only that, but we smashed through the last stretch goal in the final hours too!
Stretch Goals Met:
- 3 new community voted event cards to be added to the game (voting to come soon).
- 40 hidden goal cards to be added in the form of a mini-expansion, which will introduce additional replay value and strategy to the base game.
It wouldn't have been possible without all of your support!
As many of you know, this has been a passion project of mine for over 4 years now, and it feels incredible to be able to have it turned into a real product! I look forward to hearing what you all have to say about it!
Jack will follow up on timeline and how this all will work shortly, but in the meantime, I wanted to quickly share about what we I have been up to since the campaign ended last week!
Gen Con 2024!
Jack and I went to Gen Con, one of the biggest board game conventions in the world, drawing in over 70,000 people! We were representing both New Kingdom Gaming and Kingdoms of the Earth. We brought along several prototype copies of Prestige too, and introduced the game to so many new people!
We spent most of our time:
- Demoing Prestige at the Dragon Egg Games booth (special shout out to the team there for sharing their booth with us!)
- Showing off Prestige through Learn to Play events
- Playing some pickup games during off hours in the open play areas
Check out some photos of our festivities below:
If you happened to be one of the folks who stopped by, said hello, played a few rounds, or even preordered with us at Gen Con, I just want you to know we really appreciated it and it was great to spend the best 4 days in gaming with you!
Some other highlights of the event included meeting folks for the first time who've been involved with Prestige, such as:
Next Steps:
Jack and I had a blast at Gen Con, but things keep moving! Gen Con was a good final run to catch any lagging spelling errors, misprints, and misplaced icons, so our very next task will be to do a final update to our files before we send Prestige off to the printer!
In the meantime, we will also have the community voting for new event cards as mentioned above. We are still figuring out the logistics on that to ensure we have a fair and equitable path forward, but expect to hear more on that soon!
In the meantime, we would love it if you keep sharing Prestige with your friends and family! Though the campaign may be over, folks that missed it can still back us through preorders/late pledges!
So if you know anyone else that you think would love a copy of Prestige too, please send them the following link for easy access: https://prestige.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders?ref=follower_preorder_reminder
And finally, as always, feel free to reach out to Jack or I if you have any questions!
Let's go build something great together!
