At the moment we do not yet have a commercial partner for this campaign in Asia. Please ask your local retailer to contact us via the KS messaging system: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ludicreations/so-youve-been-cursed/messages/new?message%5Bto%5D=ludicreations

This is a USA-only campaign.

Please check the International Availability for how to back the game in the territories in which we have a commercial partner.

If you are not located in any of these territories, we recommend that you contact the partner located closest to you and ask if they can deliver to your location.

Some backers not located in the USA or partner territories have found it useful to use services that allow you to have a mailbox in the USA and forward items to themselves.

Please keep in mind that we can not be responsible for the level of service any third-party services may or may not provide.

Basically, we give you $1 off per campaign you have backed in the past!

Here are the basics:

• You must have backed the So, You’ve Been Cursed. campaign on Kickstarter before it ends.

• You must have backed for the Collector Edition pledge level. We wish we could it for everyone, but this is where we can both afford it and make the most impact for loyal backers.

• A maximum of $5 in total discount will be applied.

• The discount can be used as credit within Backerkit, to cover shipping costs and/or add-ons.

• The discount will appear automatically in your Backerkit account when we apply it, after surveys have been sent.

The above should be self-explanatory, but here’s some more detail:

• The discount is only valid for backers of this campaign that have backed at the Collector Edition pledge level by the end of the campaign. You could back for $1 and upgrade before the end of the campaign and therefore still be eligible. Unfortunately, we can not do the same discount for anyone who later upgrades their pledge level (or pre-orders the Collector Edition) after the end of the campaign. This is both practical (we can only assign this discount en masse once), and in principle fair to those who support us earlier.

• The credit can not be redeemed as cash. It can be used to pay for add-ons and shipping.

• The credit will remain in your Backerkit cart until you use it, or until we close down the Backerkit pledge manager.

• We again chose to do this without limitation as to how far in the past you backed a campaign - this may change if we do this again. We may also limit it to newsletter subscribers. Or to backers of a specific campaign. Hey, it’s free money.

• Yes, new-to-LudiCreations backers backing this campaign are not included in this. But, if you are new and we continue to do this, you would also receive a $1 discount in a future LudiCreations campaign, for having backed this one.

• We also know that $1 (per campaign, to a maximum of $5) may not seem like a lot, but it is, for us, when you consider the number of backers. And in any case, it is what we can do for now.

• We realize that the above may not cover everything, and we are happy to answer any questions. You can leave a comment, but you will probably get a quicker response (during European daylight hours) by contacting us via the KS messaging system.

• The discount will appear during your survey process. The credit has been applied using your email address to match you to previous campaigns.

• Please note that the discount will be automatically applied - we unfortunately will not be able to add credit for any campaigns that do not appear in your Backerkit account (e.g. if you had used a different email address for a previous campaign).

We need to control our freight costs. The optimal freight unit is a container.

The campaign has launched with a limit on the quantity of Collector editions that can fit in one 20’ container. Depending on how the campaign goes, we may increase that limit by upgrading to a 40’ container.

Any increase will be in sets of games that fit on a pallet, and the final quantity will not be double the current one, as the bigger the shipment, the more we need to allocate space to spare parts, promos and retail editions.

An increased limited quantity of Collector editions may be separated to a “Wave 2” pledge level to allow us to send it in a 2nd 20’ container, rather than a bigger 40’ container, if the delivery date of the first Collector copies would be at risk. All costs (game, shipping, add-ons) would be the same as for Wave 1 - only the date would be different.

The reason why the retail edition is not limited is that the Collector edition has a much bigger box, is expected to have the most backers, and is the most expensive one to make. That determines the need to allocate guaranteed space to it before the retail edition.

The only expected add-ons are: - The game itself (Retail and Collector editions) - The Weird Livestock promo, for 5 USD (note that it is already included in the Collector edition) - So, You’ve Been Eaten. games and promos - On the Underground games and promos

Please note that the availability of add-ons is not guaranteed. They will be fulfilled while supplies last.

The availability of add-ons may change by the time fulfillment has commenced. We will refund or offer an alternative if we are not able to deliver an add-on. The only way to guarantee availability is to make a separate order for that item and have it fulfilled right away, directly from this page: http://ludicreations.com/store

There will not be any upgrade packs. We will only produce enough Premium components as needed for that pledge level.

We can not deal with individual issues through the KS comments, as they are easily buried under other comments, and we can not ask you for your personal information in a public forum. In addition we are not able to track the progress of your enquiry.

Sending the same message via many different methods like our home page, Facebook page, BGG profile, etc. only creates confusion. Please just send us one message, via the KS messaging system.

At the moment, we do not have plans to produce any game material in other languages.

Last updated: August 05, 2024 05:27

We want to see this game produced and fulfilled as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Therefore we will only produce the number of copies needed for this campaign, in addition to a number of copies that are needed to maximize the space of a container.

A limited number of games will be available for pre-order. Note that those pre-orders will have higher shipping costs.

Backing the campaign at the $1 pledge level will not give access to the pledge manager.

Not in the USA.

If you are a retailer in a territory served by a partner located in a region noted in the International Availability section, please contact that partner.

If you are a retailer in any other territory, please contact us via the KS messaging system.

We are already subsidizing shipping costs enough that a group buy would not save money. In addition, a bigger package would also be more easily damaged.

Last updated: August 05, 2024 05:27

As you might see in our previous campaigns, we are sparing with the updates. We do not like to be spammed, and therefore we try not to bother people unless we actually have something substantial to say.

If you have any questions not covered by the updates, please reach out via the KS messaging platform.

Last updated: August 05, 2024 05:27

Please read the backer updates and FAQs. Many times the information you seek is already there.

If you need an update on your pledge, send us a message via Kickstarter. We can not ask for personal information in a public forum, and we can not resolve your issue via the comments page. Sending a message is also a way to have an easily accessible common record of what was discussed, since anything posted in the comments page is easily buried.

Do not make disparaging comments about other backers. Harassment, name-calling and breaches of these rules or common standards of decency are not welcome.

Please do not presume to speak for the majority in order to get something you want - it is easier to just ask us in a message.

Politeness and flexibility will get you much, much farther than going straight to aggression, demands and negativity. Backing a game entitles you to receive that game in exchange for money. It does not entitle you to cause stress or annoyance at anyone else, including other backers and creators.

We reserve the right to refund & ban anyone who fails to understand the above, ignores the KS community guidelines (https://www.kickstarter.com/help/community), and/or breaks Wheaton’s Law (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/wheatons-law).

All potential refunds of campaign funds and shipping costs are given at the discretion of LudiCreations, reserving the right to withhold transaction & processing fees.

As stipulated by the rules of this platform, a refund may be given in the event of LudiCreations having determined that it would not be possible to provide campaign rewards to the satisfaction of a backer.

A refund of 100% of the pledge amount can be provided upon request up to 1 week after the end of the campaign. A 90% refund of the pledge amount can be provided upon request after 1 week after the end of the campaign and before the fulfillment process has commenced.

Pledge refunds are processed by Kickstarter, to the original card charged, and if the card has changed, then must be refunded via alternate methods, with transaction fees deducted from the refunded amount. Shipping costs are not refundable after the game has been shipped.

We guarantee that the product you receive will be complete and all internal components are functional - and we will replace any that are not, free of charge.

We understand that all backers want to receive boxes in pristine condition; however, the realities of shipping can sometimes make this difficult. We will do our best to ensure that your package arrives in good condition, but due to the unavailability of spare empty boxes and difficulty in replacing them in a way that ensures their arrival in mint condition, we may not be able to replace boxes with cosmetic damage.

Please do not pledge to this campaign with the goal of reselling our games, at a profit or otherwise.

While we will post updates and send out reminders, it is the responsibility of the backer to complete the address & add-on survey in a timely manner, and to make sure the address is correct at the time of fulfillment, including updating it when asked.

Failure to do so may result in additional shipping costs, to be paid by the backer.

The availability of add-ons may change by the time fulfillment has commenced. We will refund or offer an alternative if we are not able to deliver an add-on. The only way to guarantee availability is to make a separate order for that item and have it fulfilled right away, directly from this page: http://ludicreations.com/store

Backers are responsible for providing a valid address to which a reward can be safely delivered. PO / APO / FPO / DPO boxes are not valid addresses. Rewards that have been marked as delivered by the shipping services provider in their tracking website are considered fulfilled. If you are expecting to be absent, you need to contact us so we can hold your package back, or enter a friend’s or relative’s address.

If a package is not received due to failure to accept or pick up a package on arrival, shipping costs are not refunded, and will need to be paid again for the rewards to be shipped again, provided that the package is returned.

Such shipping costs may be higher than the original, subsidized shipping costs originally paid as part of the campaign.

If you are expecting to be absent, you need to contact us so we can hold your package back, or enter a friend’s or relative’s address.

Should your rewards go missing, we will ask our fulfillment partners to investigate. This usually takes some time, sometimes weeks or even months after a report. In some cases, the carrier determines that the package has lost and refunds us. In this case, we will refund or reship your rewards.

Note that we can not be held responsible for any package that is reported by carrier tracking as delivered but has been stolen from your door. If this happens, please report the theft to your local authorities, local delivery carrier, and insurance provider.

An undelivered reward needs to be reported to us within 3 months of the date it was shipped. We are not able to locate, compensate for, refund, or reship any reward that is reported after that time.
