Wow, what a month! Melbourne International Games Week, PAX Australia & SXSW Sydney were incredible and thanks to friends and fans of V2S Games, ARC, Pony Dog Productions & Awakened Fables, The King’s Poisoner and its stage adaptation—The King’s Poisoner LIVE 🎭 —were both a big hit!!
Thanks to these wonderful events, hundreds of new people who’d never heard of The King’s Poisoner have now either played the game, or watched it being played or performed!
I’ve included the link to a sneak peek of the intro/trailer separately, as it’s exclusive to backers only. Hopefully I’ll have a video that’s publicly available for sharing soon!
Digital Release ETA November 📜
With all the time and energy that’s gone into the preparation and production of the stage show and live events, progress on pre-production this month has been slower than anticipated. I had hoped to be able to make up for much of this over the last few days, but there are still several files that need updating, correction or revision.
As a result, the Full Digital release will now be in November, with more details to follow asap. My apologies to all Friends of the Court and digital only backers, please know that I’m doing my utmost to get you the PDFs as quickly as possible.
Though production will now extend into January, I’m hopeful that the delivery ETA for both the Standard & Deluxe Edition boxed sets will remain unchanged and I'll be working with Panda GM (who have been great!) over the next couple of weeks to confirm the timeline.
Locking Orders Extended to November 7th!🎺
I’ve extended the deadline so that everyone has a little more time to finalize their orders and take advantage of the crazy discounts.
Remember, once orders are locked you won’t be able to make any changes or pick up extra copies or backer-only accessories for delivery as a part of this campaign.
If you’d like to know more about locking orders, please see the 2nd half of the last update for more details.
Threat Cards Reveal🫣
In addition to the video, here’s another sneak peek: the Threat Cards from the boxed set (both editions), which are used to help the king choose a threat to their kingdom that’s been occupying their attention—oh dear!
Also, rumor has it that a 🏆 King of King’s Poisoner tournament-style event is in the works, more info on that coming soon!
There are still a few surveys yet to be completed. If you haven't completed your survey yet, please do so as soon as possible so that I can fulfill your rewards.
