December's Third Thursday Update - Rulebook Proofs!
over 1 year ago – Sat, Dec 17, 2022 at 06:43:53 AM

Hello everyone! 

First of all, the pledge manager is now closed! This is a shorter update for this month as we are currently working on proofing the English rulebook and making sure it's fully ready for print! 

I need to change my address, where can I go to do that?

Be sure to submit a ticket with us by clicking the link below! We'll be happy to assist. 

While we are spending this time to fully proof the rulebook we also are pleased to show you all a first look!

That's all for now, we'll be back in the New Year with more information and some exclusive first looks of the Scenario boards! From all of us at Kolossal Games, we wish you and yours happy holidays and a wonderful new year!

Hi everyone! 

Thank you to everyone who has completed their pledge survey in Backer Kit. We only have 460 pledges remaining who need to complete that before the end of November! If you need any help we are here to assist via our support system, where you can submit a ticket here -

Hidden Leaders + Expansion is now on Kickstarter!

We wanted to show our support to the team at BFF Games as they launch the expansion to their critically acclaimed hit Hidden Leaders, which as you may already know is set in the same universe as Almost Innocent. Be sure to check out their campaign by clicking the link below. It's already FUNDED so it'll be a great campaign to support!

Launching the Pledge Manager!
over 1 year ago – Fri, Oct 14, 2022 at 06:49:33 AM

Hi everyone!

Our pledge manager is going live today/tomorrow! We just launched the smoke test which goes out to a small percentage of backers and will hit the full launch tomorrow for everyone after making sure everything looks good on the smoke test.

Over the next two days, everyone will receive an email invite to fill in their surveys (please check the email address associated with your Kickstarter account - including any spam folders). We'll be using BackerKit for our pledge managers and they send out invites slowly over 48 hours so don't panic if it isn't there just yet.

You will have just over a month to provide us with your shipping details and choose any extras you want to add to your order. If you move after this time, you will still be able to edit your address after the cutoff date. 

For those new to Backerkit we've created a quick walkthrough:

> Welcome Screen

This is where you’ll be able to select the country in which your game will Ship or Switch your Pledge Level (If you backed at $1 for Example).

Just click on the blue text just under "Your Pledge Level" and you can select any of the pledges from the drop-down menu

Click "Get Started" to continue, or "switch your pledge level" to do that.

> Questions

In this section, you'll choose which language your pledge to be in. You'll be able to add more copies in the next step and choose a different language for each one if you want.

> Add-Ons

In this part of the Pledge Manager, you’ll be able to add additional items to your pledge such as extra copies of Almost Innocent or the upgrade materials.

You’ll see your shipping fees here which will increase depending on which extras you chose. Shipping is weight-based so the costs will be dependent on the weight of your item.

If you live in a country where VAT is applicable you’ll also see VAT fees here. Please note that VAT is based on the amount charged for the items and shipping.

> Shipping

Then there is the “Shipping" section where you’ll have to fill in all your details so we can ship your games to you as soon as Almost Innocent is printed and ready! All there is left to do is click “Next” and confirm your Pledge.

Late Pledge

You’ve missed the campaign and still want to begin your startup journey?

Please join us in our Late Pledge through this link:

Closing of the Pledge Manager/Late Pledge

The pledge manager will be closing its doors on November 24th

But the surveys will still be editable for a few months after that, so if you move, etc., you will be able to use the link in your emails to return to the pledge manager and edit your address, etc., for some time.

You can also return to your pledge manager any number of times to change your items if you change your mind :)

That's it for this update, have a great day everyone!

Thank you.

We want to thank every single backer who believed in this project as much as we do and because of your support, things like daily reveals and a deluxe pledge would not have been possible! Thank you all for sharing our posts on your social media and contributing to the wonderful campaign it was! 

We'll have more information on our Pledge Manager phase of this project, estimated to open around the 2nd week in October, but of course, if that were to change we'll keep everyone updated! 

If you are interested in what's next from both publishers be sure to check our socials! 

Kolossal has a big reveal coming up at the end of the week!

BFF Games is currently getting ready for the expansion to Hidden Leaders! 

Thank you all again,  we'll be in touch soon!

KG, BFF
