Sorry for the lack of updates - after sending the files to the printer, we had to work out a few kinks and then waited quite a while for the pre-production samples to arrive.
Well, they're finally here and they look amazing! Check out these photos:
Please note: The runner/helicopter as well as the action and gadget tokens are only 3D printed samples and the tokens are not yet in their actual colors. The manufacturer is still working on the molds and will send us the mass production samples as soon as possible.
We've worked hard to make the game as good as it can be and to give you a great experience when you play it. That's why we upgraded the components wherever we could:
The punchboard is now 3.5mm with a linen finish.
The action and evidence boards have been upgraded to double-layer boards, all with a linen finish.
We've added a "secret research" envelope with more gadgets for the Runner to explore once they reach rank 4.
We've included a slipcase that securely holds both double layer boards together with the action and gadget tokens inside. This gives you a nice way to store the tokens and will speed up the setup process tremendously.
While we're waiting for the injection molded samples for the plastic pieces, we'll be doing some more playtesting with the final prototype. We'll also go over everything with a fine-tooth comb to check for errors or spelling mistakes and update the print files if necessary.
We'll start the mass production process as soon as we receive and approve the injection molded samples, and we'll update you once mass production is complete and we're closer to shipping.
We're sorry for the delays. Although RUN comes in a rather small box, it's got tons of components (the prototype box weighed around 2 lbs!) where a lot of things can go wrong. We're committed to delivering a premium game, and really like how it's turning out. After playing a few games with the pre-production copy, we can already say that the game looks, feels, and plays great, and we can't wait to get it into your hands!
