Steamforged Games - A redemption story

Once upon a time, in 2016, a small and relatively unknown board game company called Steamforged Games launched a project to present Dark Souls: Board Games. He garnered more than 31,000 followers and raised £ 3.7 million. The "estimated shipping" date was April 2017, when it was shipped, and a few months later it was the first wave with the main game box, which was not specified. Kickstarter promotion. The expansion and expansion targets for Waves 2 and 3 were subsequently delivered, and Wave 3 was finally completed in January 2020 . As you can imagine, many people were not happy about that. So, if you're looking for Reddit to get away from the list of desktop gaming companies, it's usually steamforce games.

In November 2020, Steamforge Games launched another Kickstar platform for tabletop gaming, this time with the original IP called Bardsung . They still have 10,000 followers and £ 1 million, but it has attracted fewer audiences than a real licensed IP game and has been awarded the Dark Souls Shipping brand Fayasco. Estimated delivery in May 2022 at this time. No one believed him. During this time, there were several other companies, including several Kickstarter campaigns, and everyone knew that, if lucky, the actual delivery is usually delayed by at least 6 months. It was also his debut in the board game industry and his first game in production and shipping. Prepare a large 75-ton board game and ship it to your customers within 18 months? impossible! I can not! Not a company with a particularly bad shipping history.

Exception ... Sometimes a company that has been criticized for failing in a business is really motivated to do better. Also, a process that once failed teaches you the flaws of the process.

Today, March 31, 2022, I received a copy from Bardsung with an expandable Birdsong Fables goal box. Two months ago. None of my other Kickstarter projects have ever been accelerated. Especially in board games. I paid only £ 101 ($ 132) for the overdue commitment, including a description and delivery of Fortale. They are cheap in today's market for mini kits of 10 kg and tons. Miniaturemarket.com is available for $ 170 plus shipping , pre-ordered and not included in the Fables box.

I am very happy and impressed. Thanks to Steamforged Games for learning to distribute Kickstarter board games on time. They moved from a shipping company to Kickstarter board games, a first-class shipping company. This is a wonderful thing!
