Hi all!
Another quick update about shipping and some FAQ's.
Europe πͺπΊ and North America πΊπΈ π¨π¦
All games for Europe and North America have been shipped and most of you should have received your game()s. If you have not received your game yet, please let us know, so we can look in to it.
It could be that your shipment was send in 'Batch 2'. Just before Spiel in Essen we collected al the data from Backerkit. Some people had not filled in the survey yet. That data was processed later and send in one batch, which will be shipped this week.
Rest of the World πΊοΈ
Unfortunately there was some delay in the shipment to the rest of the world. Most games were send out last week and the planning is to send out the rest this week.
Some FAQ's
Bable π
There is a typo in the components list.Β
In the rule book it states that there are 25 Word cards π¬.Β
There are however 24.
You are not missing any cards π
, we just all overlooked this typo.
Grachtenpand π·
Some people were not enjoying the 2 player experience as much. Zach made a variant for 2 players which you can findhere on BGG.Β
We hope you enjoy this variant!
Time Zoo π¦£
We left out 2 things in the rule book π€¦π»ββοΈ
Once the Food card πππ deck runs out, you Β shuffle the discard pile to create a new draw pile. Keep the top 4 cards of the former discard pile to start a new one.
There are tiebreakers in the game.Β
If 2 or more players have the same amount of points, use these tiebreakers:
1. The player with the most different Animal cards wins, if there is still a tie:
2. The player with the most Animals cards of the same colour wins, if there is still a tie:
3. The tied players share the victory.
Cheers,
The ABGD Team
PS: We are already working of 3 new games for 'Season 2'. Stay tuned for more information about these games next week!

Hi all,
Shipping of the games has started! π₯³
Some people in the Netherlands π³π± already received their copies and the rest of Europe πͺπΊ should follow this and next week.
The games that will be send to the rest of the world π , will be shipped out later this week and/or at the beginning of next week.
β οΈ Promo pack β οΈΒ
It seems that the promo pack was a bit hidden in the packaging for some people.
The cards are packed separately in a paper wrapper, be on the look out for that.
Don't throw it away, the paper is not just filling for the packaging π

Cheers,
The ABGD Team
