Dodos riding Dinos and the supply chain bottleneck
almost 3 years ago – Sat, Jun 26, 2021 at 01:51:38 AM

Hi Dodino Island!

How are you? Did you see the Dodos riding Unboxing? The game is almost ready and it looks great! Did we already say it has the most beautiful board in tabletop history?

Unfortunately, we have bad news about the shipping dates. Maybe some of you have already heard about the container shortage crisis due to the post-pandemic bottleneck release. The affectations have arrived in the board games industry (but it is affecting many more industries too), there isn't enough space in the warehouses because there aren't enough containers for sending all the products manufactured in China. In the same way, the prices for shipments are increasing to never seen levels. 

Our factory asked us for 50 extra days to finish the mass production. According to the last data we heard from the factory, mass manufacture will finish by the end of July, and then freight shipping will start, which we foresee to have an impact on our estimated cost; the process to the fulfillment centers will begin. The current ETA for your rewards is late September/ early October. We can't say much about this right now, the exact cost for the freight shipping is unknown since those are changing every day and there's no way for us to lock fees prior to the day of cargo. We'll keep you informed in the next updates. We would like to have a faster solution, but the experts say this bottleneck will be fixed next year, once the Xmas deliveries finish. 

Here's a video that could be helpful for understanding the situation.

We are always thankful for your support and understanding, and believe us, we will not rest until everyone gets your rewards. We have fulfilled all our past campaigns and this time, for this game we have also the support of Draco Studios who is also a committed and trustful publisher. We are deeply sorry for these extra delay for reasons beyond our control; believe us, we want nothing more than for you to get your copy of Dodos Riding Dinos and hear how much fun and laughter this game brings to your table!


Curse of the DooDoo Doll - One-shot RPG stretch goal

We have a surprise for you. You can have a shorter waiting if you read the Dodos RPG Adventure. This is the stretch goal we achieved during the campaign. And we strongly recommend for you to prepare playing this one because it might lead to a surprise after solving the puzzle once you get your games!

Where's the MPC? Who will be the Kiwi Rider?
almost 3 years ago – Tue, May 25, 2021 at 11:24:42 PM

Hi Dodino Island!

It seems next week we finally will get the Dodos riding Dinos Mass Production Copy. Roooaaarrr!!! In fact, multiple copies are traveling around the world. Each localization partner will receive their DrD language edition, and three content creators will get the game in advance directly from the factory.

Next Friday will be a great day!

We plan to do a "Livestream Unboxing" as soon as we get the first production copy. We'll send you the Detestable YouTube Channel link in the next update. It would be great if you can join us!

The Kiwi Rider

As you may know, we're in the final hours of the Kiwi Chow Down campaign.  We're pretty close to unlocking the 7th Kiwi Leader, and it will be a crossover miniature with Dodos riding Dinos. This means you'll be able to play with it in both games. Right now, you can vote so we can select the most popular one.  Please take a look; there're great sketches, and the decision will be tough!

In the past weeks we have been listening to our backers' feedback about Kiwi Chow Down and we made some changes including:

  • Offering more unique Kiwi miniatures in the stretch goals
  • Change the illustration and design of the board to be more immersive (in progress)
  • Commitment to cover VAT for EU and subsidize shipping to NZ backers (where Kiwi is the emblematic bird)
  • We enabled the 5th player addon

Plus, remember that as returning backer you get $5 USD credit towards add-ons.

This edition of Kiwi Chow Down includes a couple of crossover cards that allows you to use some of your minis in Dodos Riding Dinos and Kiwi Chow Down in the other game with new abilities. Plus you get a ton of deluxe content for the best possible price, including the free mini expansion. 

You can still join here.

Finally, we want to remind you Kiwi Chow Down will finalize the Avian Archipelago Trilogy in the Creature Kingdoms series. If you have the three games, you'll be able to merge them into a new conquest experience!

If you already have War for Chicken Island, you have to know Draco Studios is working on a second edition. They'll provide an updated digital rulebook with all the pledges that included WFCI during the DrD and KCD campaigns. 

In the same way, after the Kiwi Chow Down fulfillment. There will be a new game in the Creature Kingdoms Universe. We were asking opinions in the KCD campaign, and maybe the next game will be related to Panduga or Atlanfish.

The new Avian Archipelago lite editions will accompany this 4th game of the Creature Kingdoms universe for retail. Our plan is you'll be able to use some miniatures from the previous games in this new adventure. 

Ok, Dodino Island, see you in the Final Chow Down and next week for the unboxing update! Roooaarrr!!!

Spoiler alert!!!! The future of the Creature Kingdoms Universe!!! Rooooaaarrrr!!!
