Why are the games more expensive than Season One?

We listened to your feedback with regards to card size and quality. This time we use a more standard 63x88mm size, which is easier to sleeve if you want. Bigger cards also means a bigger box. And we also use a better card stock and linen finish this time. So we basically improved a lot.

Oh and not all the games are only cards this time, we added meeples, a player board, tokens and a score pad. We don’t want to limit the ABGD Seasons to only cards games.

Are there local pickup options?

Yes! Just like last year, we are trying to get the production done before SPIEL in Essen. If everything goes as planned you can join us at out booth and pick up the games at the convention.

We will also have pickup options during Spellenspektakel in Utrecht, Amsterdice in Amsterdam and we are looking in to more option.

So you are based in Amsterdam, but why is the trailer recorded in Utrecht? :)

You have a good eye! Yes, we shot our trailer during on of our so called ‘XXL’ prototype testing events in the library in Utrecht. Amsterdam Board Game Design has expanded a lot in the last year and we have many designers all around the Netherlands (and Belgium) who are part of our community now. Especially because of our cooperation with Spellenmaakgilde (‘Dutch gaming guild’) and the SAZ Game Designers Association (in Germany) we are no longer confined to the borders of Amsterdam :)

How do I pledge for multiple things?

When you pledge for an item or a bundle, you can alway add more things as an add-on later. You can pledge for the Season Two bundle for example and add the Season One bundle as and add-on.

I missed Season One, is there a way to get the Season One promo pack?

In Season One we combined all the promo cards in one pack, so this would only make sense if you pledge for the whole bundle of course. At this time we don’t have a lot of the promo packs anymore, so it really depends on the demand for Season One.

If the demand is not that high, we might be able to add some of the packs that we still have. So we might offer it as an add-on later or put it in the bundle anyway.

On the other hand, if demand is really high � We might need to reprint. Stay tuned for updates about this soon.

Are all promo cards included in the Season Two bundle?

Yes, all the promo cards for this season will be included in the Season Two bundle.

Once you have pledge for the Season Two bundle, you do NOT have to add the promo packs again during check out. The cards are already included.

If you would like to order more games separately as an add-on, you are of course more than welcome to also add more promo card packs.

BackerKit FAQ

What is BackerKit?

BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!

The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.

How does BackerKit work?

After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.

I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?

The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.

Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.

To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.

How do I update my shipping address?

BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.

When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?

That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.

I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?

As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
