Deck Box Dungeons

Created by Ariah Studios

Deck Box Dungeons is a full featured dungeon crawler that includes character customization, special abilities, and collecting treasure to spend on magical items. All of the components fit into a deck box making it compact and highly portable. The free companion app and print and play quests both allow us to rebalance quests based on feedback, add new content, or even add all new game modes without the need for players to pay more.

Rules Update

We released the first update to the rules this week based on feedback received. You can download the updated rules at www.DeckBoxDungeons.com. If you have further suggestions for rules clarifications or Frequently Asked Questions please let us know in the forum on Board Game Geek. We plan on releasing another rules update in about a week or so after more people have had a chance to play and let us know what might help.

Board Game Geek Ratings

Are you enjoying the game? Please help us out and leave a rating on Board Game Geek!! Ratings can really improve visibility for new games. If you're having any issues let us know how we can make things better. Digital content for rules, quests, and encounters gives us a lot of flexibility to adjust things after release.

Final Shipping Update / More
almost 5 years ago – Sun, Jun 09, 2019 at 11:58:40 PM

Shipping Update

There are about 8-10 more shipments scheduled to go out tomorrow, but that should be everyone! There have been a couple of reports of shipments being "stuck" at a FedEx location. If this happens to you, please contact Blackbox support at [email protected] so that they can investigate and resolve any issues. It could be a Blackbox or FedEx issue.

Missing / Replacement Parts

So far we have only received reports of a couple issues, but if you are missing any components or have received damaged components please send an email to [email protected] to let us know. This includes anyone who has reported an issue by other means. We just want to keep all reports in one place to try and prevent missing anyone. If your components are damaged, please send us images if possible so that we can have them for reference just in case there are any wide spread issues.

Retail Sales

Now that the initial fulfillment (excluding anyone with delayed shipping issues) for backers and pre-orders should be wrapped up tomorrow we plan to open up sales on www.DeckBoxDungeons.com to the public later this week. If you only got one copy, but are looking to get a second then this is your chance!

Rules / App Updates

In general the response to the game has been great, with the biggest issue we've seen being rules clarity. For that reason, we will be posting updated rules based on current feedback later this week. Please continue to let us know anything else that is unclear or confusing so that we can continue to improve the rules!

We were hoping to get another update out for the app this weekend, but our main computer for development decided to stop working. The good news is that everything is backed up and nothing was lost, but this will delay the next update of the app until we can get back up and running.

If you have questions or feedback in general we would prefer you use the forum on Board Game Geek to keep everything centralized, but you can also reach us on Twitter, Facebook, or here on Kickstarter. Be sure to rate the game on Board Game Geek if you're enjoying it and please let us know what we can improve if you are having any issues!

International Shipping / More
almost 5 years ago – Fri, Jun 07, 2019 at 02:55:17 AM

Shipping Update

99% of ALL orders have now been shipped!! There are only about 10-15 left that had some issues with special characters in the addresses we had to correct, but those will be imported tomorrow and should go out Monday at the latest.

We have had a couple questions regarding tracking for non-US shipments. The UK warehouse uses different shipping services based on country. Some offer tracking options and some do not. If you have received a shipping notice without tracking info you may Blackbox customer support at [email protected]. The customer support team should be able to give you a delivery estimate and in some cases you may be able to add tracking to an order.

Questions / Suggestions

We appreciate all the great feedback we've been getting! However, to try and not miss anything we would highly recommend using the forum at Board Game Geek in order to keep everything in one place. If that is not an option for some reason please feel free to direct message us, but we cannot guarantee we'll be able to catch every question in comments spread out across social media and Kickstarter.

BGG Ratings

Liking the game? PLEASE rate it over at Board Game Geek as it will help us out a lot!

Additional Copies

After all the initial shipping to backers/preorders has finished we will be opening up sales on DeckBoxDungeons.com hopefully next week sometime. If you only backed for 1 copy or you think someone else would like the game make sure to sign up for our mailing list there to be notified when sales become available.

Next Kickstarter Update should be in a few days after shipping has wrapped up. That is also when we will begin any replacement shipments for damaged/missing components.

Shipping Progress / Alexa
almost 5 years ago – Sun, Jun 02, 2019 at 12:54:08 AM

Shipping

As we mentioned in our last Update, all US shipments should now be sent and people are already starting to receive their games! Non-US shipments coming out of the UK will start early this week so it won't be much longer. It will likely be the same as US shipments where all shipments go out in the same day so we will post again when things have been sent.

Alexa Integration

We're adding yet another (optional) digital accessory for the game, a new skill for Amazon's Alexa. The new skill can be used for asking Alexa about rules and other things that may be useful while in the middle of a game. The initial skill will answer questions about keywords and skill checks, but we would really like to build it out a lot more. We have setup a google form ( https://forms.gle/38v1WSmD4Q4r9VHK8 ) for suggestions on what you would find most helpful and how you would phrase your questions. Please feel free to fill it out multiple times if you have more than one suggestion. There is no deadline for this as we plan to continue to add to the skill as needed.

Games are shipping!
almost 5 years ago – Fri, May 31, 2019 at 12:01:34 AM

Shipping Update

All US shipments should have gone out today! We are waiting on info from the UK for the worldwide shipments and will Update again when we find out more.

Shipping Issues/Concerns

If your shipping notice has the incorrect number of games please send us a direct message with your info so we can verify your order. If there are other issues with your shipment please reply to your shipping notice email with questions or problems and Blackbox can help you out.


We will Update again once the UK shipments have started!
