Does the game come with pizza?
Only metaphorically, like in Hook.

Is the game itself changing?
No, nothing beyond minor typos will change in the book itself. This is simply a high-quality reprint, with new extras like maps and dice.

Is it appropriate for kids?!
Slugblaster has some mature themes (like the parodying of drug PSAs), but is otherwise suitable for most audiences. No swearing, gory art, or direct drug references or anything like that. It would be appropriate for children old enough to watch something like the Spider-Verse movies.

What are the risks with the campaign?
The main risks are in delays and shipping. Delays because we try our best but we’re also trying to make something really rad and shipping because, well, shipping is bad right now, and the costs for shipping may go up. Other than that, the core game is already 100% finished with just a few design elements to finalize - the box, what goes in it, and any Stretch Goals we may unlock and design as a result of this campaign. Mythworks is a veteran of over 15 crowdfunding campaigns so we’re well versed in the trials and tribulations therein.

I have an issue with my pledge who should I write?
Please email: [email protected]
We try to funnel all customer support into that email so it all exists in one easy place to check. Doing so helps us get to it in a timely manner.
Thank you!

What's the deal with shipping?
The world is chaotic and things are constantly changing when it comes to worldwide logistics. It’s tricky. It sucks. There’s no way to predict accurate shipping at the time of a campaign’s fulfillment and rates continue to go up. We’re charging for shipping after the campaign ends near fulfillment.
We’ve learned a lot over the past few years, including the need to over-communicate and be absolutely 100% transparent when it comes to shipping.
Here is exactly how we’re going to handle shipping:
-
Announce Shipping Rates. We’ll make sure you’re well aware of the shipping rates by listing the full rates here as well as having them implemented on BackerKit. We’ll make several announcements during the week and give Backers two weeks until we charge cards.
-
Wait Two Weeks. We’ll announce once again the shipping rates again after one week.
-
Give Final 48 Hours Notice to Charge Cards. After the two weeks we’ll give a final 48 hour notice that charges will be going out.
-
Charge for Shipping. Then we’ll charge for shipping and push them through to fulfillment.
We have warehouses in the USA, UK, and EU from where we’ll be sending out goods.
We’re actively working on finding better partners and solutions for Canada and Australia/New Zealand, but rates remain very high for those territories.

Is there VAT for this campaign?
For the USA, UK, and EU - no. We’re based in the USA and have import EORIs et. all for the UK and EU.
For Australia, New Zealand, and Canada - potentially, but we’re working on partners with fulfillment centers in those territories to make sure that doesn’t happen. In the past, these territories have sometimes been hit with VAT from packages sent from the USA, sometimes not - it really depends on who’s inspecting at the time.
For ROW - potentially as well, as we are shipping from various places around the world depending on the rates.

Can I get a refund?
Bummer to see you go, but of course! Just write to us to let us know.

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.
