WE DID IT!
Thank you to everyone who backed the project! The final day of the campaign was utterly jaw-dropping - we passed over 3000 backers and $250k USD raised! Now that we've had a moment to catch our breath, we're back on task and fired up to deliver the best version of the game we can!
Things happening this week:
BackerKit will be open for late orders and the editing of add-ons soon. We'll reach out to Retail Tier backers when this happens so you can place your full order.
There are a few cards in the base set that I want to improve the art for and then I will be moving on to:
- Finalizing the box art
- Finalizing the playmat art
- Creating the art for the unlocked "Matthew the Artist" foil card (which will either be incredibly powerful or laughably useless depending on which is funnier)
panDEMONium backers will be contacted sometime after those things are done to begin work on their Mystery Sword cards.
The community can still unlock 3 more guest artist cards by completing these qwests:
- We're adding 6 more Move card types to the game. They represent more advanced tactics with their own risks and rewards and unlike Attack, Buff and Block, you can only have one of each of them in your hand. Play them wisely...
- Pest Sprout (as drawn by Matthew) is being removed from the Heroes of Hiltshire expansion. He was the only character who was doubled up by a Guest Artist card (drawn by JakeyBoiArts), so we decided to give another character who previously missed the cut a chance to be included.
- We're adding 6 Location cards to the Heroes of Hiltshire expansion, in addition to the 6 that were already unlocked for the base game. This brings the expansion in-line with the base game in terms of the number of Characters, Swords, Moves and Locations they each contain.
- The Crowdfünder Sword has had 8 upgrades locked in, with 7 more to vote on - keep an eye on the @swordscomic Instagram this week to vote on more cosmetic upgrades. Make sure to enter Makeship's giveaway for a Quest Sprout plushie while you're visiting the page today, too!
- We had room for one final guest artist who is finishing their card art now, so we'll announce them soon. Maybe with another qwest?
That's it for now! Thank you all again!

We have one week left on the campaign!
Here are some updates!
We've added DICE!
You can enjoy this dice set as a standalone purchase with our new Dice Only tier, or add them as an add-on to your existing order by accessing Manage Pledge.
These dice are not required to enjoy Swords: Cut the Deck - we just know you wanted them!
PLEASE NOTE : We're already adding a set of dice to every panDEMONium edition, so you don't need to alter your order... Unless you want more, of course.
~~~
We have currently unlocked 27 Guest Artist Foil Cards, with just a few more to come!
Voting is now open on the @swordscomic Instagram for the Crowdfünder's next cosmetic upgrade. Thanks for helping us hit 1400% funded! Visit using the app and vote on the Story screen.

1000%!

One week in and we’re several cuts above our goal at an astonishing 1000%!
As a reward to all backers, we’ll be giving everyone the exclusive Crowdfünder Sword card as a thank you for helping us climb higher and higher. A little unassuming for now, but for each 100% from here on out that the campaign grows, we’ll buff this sharp looking lad. Visually - and stats wise too!
Crowdfünder
You've been slaying our sidequests so far! Our next set will unlock 3 location cards. Locations change game play beyond what the Heroes and Swords do, by throwing a spanner (or sword) into the works with unique, global effects.
Side Qwests - Fantasy Travel Guide
The hard working adventurers over at the Swords discord (and on other social media!) have been rising to the occasion and striking off side quests left and right to unlock more cards for all backers to enjoy. The effort, creativity and good spirited nature of this community has brought forth some really cool team work. We hope to highlight this in a video soon - watch this space!
In the meantime, keep it up! Keep questing! ⚔️
