Sad about all the money you spent during Amazon Prime Day? Let's cheer you up with some exciting news and info!
Questions about the Companion App?
What is Freemium? We are offering a basic version of the app for free. This version should be sufficient for most people to play the Quest Calendar. We will have advanced features only available in the Premium Version. Here is a breakdown of the features we are working on.
Remember: Every physical Hero Book you get through the Kickstarter (as an Add-On or as part of a Reward Tier) will come with a code to get the fully unlockedPremium Hero App for FREE!
At the suggestion of a backer (Thanks, Josh), we are adding the app as an Add-On if you want to pay for it now. We will send you a code when it is ready for download.
Stretch Goal Update
With the Case for the Premium Life Elements Dice unlocked, the survey from the last update shows a clear winner at 85% in preference for the black leather and velvet dice case.
But there is still no clear winner on the Amber Dice. It is truly divided almost down the middle.
Returning heroes will notice a new format to the combat. Everything is placed into a condensed icon section with a short explanation of combat at the bottom. This should reduce typos and allow room for more rounds during the battle.Â
Also, notice you will now roll for your rewards if you kill enough baddies. Kill more baddies = potential for higher rewards.
Do you have any questions on how combat works?
How does it feel to roll for defense?
We all got dices, dices, dices.... and a companion app!?

I'd like to dedicate this next song to all the dice goblins out there.
I can't believe we just hit the 150k stretch goal for the Companion App. Insane! We will release more info about the app features and cost in an upcoming update, but know this: Every physical Hero Book you get through the Kickstarter (as an Add-On or ap part of a Reward Tier) will come with a code to get the fully unlocked Hero App for FREE!
And we just got tagged as a Kickstarter "Project We Love"!!! This is a true honor and great for the project. Every creator seeks this when we launch.
Leaf Bag and Dice Case Goals
I am changing the stretch goals for the  Leaf Bag and the Dice Case. I previously had "300ct", which meant count, meaning that once we had a certain number ordered, we would unlock those. I guess it was confusing or cryptic. So I am turning those into standard funding goals. See below:
Your opinion matters!
What do you like better? There have been a few comments about the dice. It seems that the contrast might be hard to read. I've gotten new samples from the manufacturer and wanted to get your opinion on them. I have a poll going on for a vote with the sparkly or without the sparkly.
Ambiance and more stretch goals!

Wow, did you just roll a natural 20 to unlock stretch goals? Because you are tearing through them like they are evil insects, and you are armed with the best pesticide!
You've unlocked the stickers in the hero book, which is a personal favorite of mine. Â It makes it feel like you are collecting the loot throughout the year. And they will look great on the new party sheet.
Also unlocked is the PVC upgrade to the playing cards. This will make them extra durable and long-lasting. These can be used to play any card game that uses a traditional card deck.Â
Now, we are working towards the companion app! To 150k!!
Ambiance
A question for those who play TTRPGs... Do you ever use music to set the ambiance of an epic battle? Maybe you can use this: the soundtrack from our campaign video.
I've used a great friend for all our Kickstarter videos so far. I met him at work when I was still in IT. He is terrific at filming, lighting, video editing, and music. He is basically a one-man show. I am so impressed with this music track he compiled, especially the ending. Could you take a listen?
Unlocking Stretch Goals: Enter the Weasel!

Happy Independence Day 🎆🎇 to everyone, and stay safe! Don't let those celebration fireworks become a real "Dragon's Fire" 🧨. They do more than d4 damage in real life.
We are already unlocking stretch goals and now have our Weasel Hero, the Shadow Weaver! This also means we have 6 coasters in the set and a 6th enamel pin (also included in the set - that's $36 for 6 beautiful pins).Â
We could still use your help in spreading the word!Â
First day compete + Stretch Goals Ready + Cartographer's Quest Begins!

Wow Wow Wow! Thank you! Thank you!
We officially achieved over $64k in funding on the first day. That's over 581 percent!! Â These numbers may not interest some of you and that ok, but these are great for a project creator. Â Interestingly, all advice from experienced crowdfunding experts says to avoid launching on a Saturday or holiday. Well, we did both (holiday weekend counts), and yet we have tremendous success now!
Welcome back many of you that have returned to help back this next Quest Calendar. I am so excited to have all of you here, both new adventurers and returning heroes! We still need more of your help. Please spread the word as much as you can.
Stretch Goals Ready
We just dropped 7 stretch goals to work towards, including a new hero and a companion app that many of you have been asking about. I am more than confident that we can achieve every one of these. And we have more to come! Check out the campaign page to see the others!
The best part about getting in this early is getting your suggestions and contributions. What else would you like to see for stretch goals?
Who do you think the hero is??
More info about the app will be discussed in a future update.
Kickstarter Instructions...
Looking to change your pledge or reward selection? Follow these instructions. Beware, Â if you have early bird pricing, it is best to wait until the pledge manager is released or you could lose your early-bird pricing.
Cartographer's Quest Begins
We had a blast last year creating a mini-quest during the campaign. Well, we brought a new one to you. Today, we have 2 heroes available. So look them over and pick one! Or both? You can read their background and their character sheets.
We will release the following page on each update. At the end of the campaign, we will have it available as a single PDF.
a printer friendly character sheet
Returning adventurers may notice a mechanic change already! A future update will dive into more detail about some of the other important changes.
