More Stretch Goals!

Hey, you all!

It has been days full of stretch goals so far :D Yesterday you have got yourselves two additional Wonder Cards with new original artwork! 

Furthermore for those of you who love to read the lore and like to know everything about this amazing word, we have unlocked a SG just for you! 

With this app upgrade you will be able to deepen your feet even more in the incredible world of Volfyirion! If you are curious to find out more about this dreadful dragon, the history of this world and so on, you will just have to open up the app and press a button! This, along with the digital Artbook and all the previous SGs, will make the final app really amazing!

First reward!

This past week our first winner was our faithful backer Filipa Tato! Travis worked very hard to create an artwork that would portray Filipa as a character of this amazing world, and he absolutely managed to do it! We think this artwork fully reflects the passion of the artist for this mysterious world, and below you can admire the Scholar Card. 

This card will be in every copy of the game along with all the future winners! It will be amazing for Filipa to see herself protecting her cities! 

In a couple of days we will find the second week winner, and we can't wait to see who among our backers will be next featured in the game!

Thanks for the amazing support,

TG

New milestones!

In only 48h we reached great milestones! We became more than 2000, this is an extremely impressive number to reach in the first two days! Also, you left more than 1000 comments, it means that you are an extremely active and engaged community and this is something that we are really proud of! Can't wait to see who the first winner of our Weekly Challenge is going to be!

Stretch Goals!

We hit a lot of stretch goals and this is awesome! First of all, each copy of the game will have better quality cards and your game will become a real gem! A lot of backers asked us about the Card Stock: it will be above 310gsm, probably between 310 and 315gsm depending on what we are going to agree upon with our factory. To give you some reference, everything above 310gsm is considered Casino Quality, that can resist many plays and shuffles.

Since the stretch goal was about the core, a lot of you were curious about which core we have unlocked and we are happy to announce that it's going to be a Black Core. Please remember that different manufactures may use different names, but generally Black Core is considered the best kind of core available, with the highest quality. This is what allows a card to snap back in its original form when bent.

Then, with the next SG we also unlocked two more Command Cards, so even more combos and artworks!

4 Players mode!

You unlocked one of the most requested stretch goals so far! We are happy to say that you made it possible: your games will have a new 4 players game mode! 

This mode will require an additional standard deck, this means that you can play right away just using a friend's deck or, if you prefer, you can get a second deck as an add-on.

Let's share more details about how this mode is going to work, since it's going to be amazing! 

The game mode is going to be a 2 vs 2, following the same base concept of each faction trying to destroy the enemy cities. This time, though, cities will become fortified strongholds created by combining together two city cards. Since there are 12 City Cards available from both decks it means that there is a lot of strategic thinking on how to allocate defense points. In fact, each city will now have combined defense value. It's also important to note that each fortified stronghold will be having room for two buildings and for two troops. This way the possible combos available are endless!

Each player will manage one stronghold and co-manage another one, meaning that there will be cooperation about what happens in one of the three cities of a faction. Points are also shared between two players in the same faction, and so is the market. Ensuring strong interaction between the players.

Another great addition is the Volfyirion's Clutch. This time Volfyirion will decide to grasp some Wonders, making them impossible to obtain without confronting him. This will make Wonder Cards more precious and Volfyirion is going to be even more strategically placed, since it can make valuable cards harder to obtain.

Lastly, Volfyirion's Lair now becomes double sided, since it requires higher values to work well with the powerful combos you are going to unleash in a 2 vs 2 mode!

Let’s see where we will go next, shall we?

When we hit the €49.000 stretch goal, we will add to the App resources counters and a guided setup! We believe that the resource counter is going to be really handy to have around during your plays, and this is a really neat way to do it. You won't have to bring anything else with you, while still benefiting from it!

In the app you will also find a guided setup to quickly prepare your games and, of course, the Interactive Rulebook we already unlocked a while ago! This app is going to be a must have for every Volfyirion player!

Many more SGs are coming, we are sure that the final game will be absolutely stunning!

Once again, let us know what you think by leaving a comment!

That was quick!

Volfyirion has come and you engaged it face on! We get funded in only FORTY-THREE MINUTES. This result is amazing and your support is overwhelming!

Now that the base game funding is secured, we can start to improve the game further by adding as much stretch goals as we can! 

The first Stretch goal is going to be two more Command Cards with new artworks from Travis Anderson. 

He is so excited to embark himself again in this wonderful world after Mysthea, and he can't wait to create new artworks to expand this universe even more! So, since you all showed great enthusiasm for his work, we are sure you all will love this first stretch goal!

Then we will add a Digital Interactive Rulebook, that is going to be a free app that will have a fully searchable version of the rulebook, to allow you to learn the game and clarify doubts really quickly!

Now, that is just the start, but we have a long list of stretch goals ahead of us! We will try to expand the rules and the gameplay to its maximum extent, and we have a lot of neat ideas ready to be shared, so stay tuned!

Thanks!

More city cards unlocked!

Onward and upward!

A new stretch goal has come and you guys seem extremely excited about this in the project comments!

Now each copy of the game will get two more different artworks for the City Cards, this means that each city controlled by the player will have its own distinct design and personality. This is also more in line with the game lore. How cool is that?

In the lore of Volfyirion, the cities controlled by the player were once the six provinces of Kyradar (the place now in ruins where Volfyirion resides). 

Before the conquest of Kyradar by king Ahatils, the former capital relied heavily on these cities and it's only fair that each has its own artwork! We are looking forward in making each city unique in future SGs, so keep an eye for that!

Next, we will add two more Wonder Cards. This will allow us to add new interesting mechanics to the game, other than even more original artworks from Travis.

Soon we will reach 200% funding, that is so exciting!

200% funded!

We have doubled our funding goal!

Things are moving fast, and yesterday night we hit the 30.000 stretch goal: two more Wonder Cards with new original artwork to go! 

Just few minutes ago, we unlocked the stretch goal containing two more Command Cards with artworks never seen before! This allows for a lot more of replay value and it unlocks new powerful combos to unleash during your games! Thank you so much for making this happen! 

Now, we are browsing to the stretch goal that will improve the quality of the cards. The upgraded core makes cards more durable, perfect to sustain a lot of games! It also feels better, which is nice!

We have already unlocked a lot of interesting things, but we are just at the beginning, and we have so much more to unveil!  

If you haven't already, help us in our BGG listing! Become a fan and add Volfyirion in your wishlist, let try to hit the hotlist! Thank you all!
