Can I upgrade the basic pledge to a higher pledge for the same price in the pledge manager?
The deep discounts on offer are available throughout the duration of the Kickstarter campaign, but the prices will revert to RRP when the pledge manager opens.

Will there be retail pledges?
Yes - retailers should simply pledge for one copy of the game and then contact us directly after the campaign has finished, email [email protected] to arrange your order.

Will the game be available at retail?
We do not have confirmation of wider retail distribution yet, though individual retailers can support us directly, as above.

Will there be solo play?
Heck yes – we love solo games! :D Kreel Manor has ‘true’ solo play so you can control a single hero against the game without having to change the rules or use a bot, or manage multiple characters (though you can still play as a party of heroes instead if you prefer).

Are there any Kickstarter exclusives?
Yes, the Playmats are being made to order so they will not be available at retail, and the deep discounts are exclusive to Kickstarter.

Is the playmat full bleed art, or does it have graphics?
The Kreel Manor playmats are currently full bleed art, but if the campaign does well enough I could look into maybe making them 2-sided, and putting graphics layouts on one side. :)

Who does the art?
It’s our usual power band of artists: Jose Del Nido, Mikhail Greuli, The Creation Studio, Wietze Fopma, Roman Hodek, Carlos Villas, Mario Teodosio, Hachiimon.

Can I see the rulebook?
I’m working on the rulebook but it’s a bit epic, so it will take some time yet. You can get a good feel for Veilwraith (very similar system) by watching any of the videos on the main page. :)

What about International Shipping? For EU backers, what about duty taxes, and VAT outside the UK?
We’re shipping from international hubs (including from within the EU) to make things as smooth as possible for everyone, but we are not responsible for customs fees or local taxes. We have an EU hub in Germany, so though we don’t cover any local fees/charges we do already pay the import VAT/taxes.

Will there be a Pledge Manager? If so, how long with the Pledge Manager be open?
Yes, most likely BackerKit. We will try to keep it open for as long as we can.

Will there be a non-English language version of the game?
No, this Kickstarter is for the English language version only – we have no plans for foreign language versions at this time. If you’re interested in localising our games please contact us via our website.

Can I add Call of Kilforth as an add-on in the pledge manager?
No, Call of Kilforth is on track to sell out well before we ship Kreel Manor. It’s landing next month so if you’d like a copy you’re best pre-ordering here: https://art-of-kilforth-artbook-and-gloom-of-kilforth-reprints.backerkit.com/hosted_preorders

Can I add Veilwraith as an add-on in the pledge manager?
No, Veilwraith is also now on track to sell out before we ship Kreel Manor, so will most likely NOT be in the pledge manager. If you’d like a physical copy you can order it now, whilst stocks last, via our website here: https://www.hallornothing.net/shop

How do I purchase other Hall or Nothing games? Can I add other Hall or Nothing games as add-ons in the pledge manager?
We cannot guarantee add-ons this time around as our stock is currently selling through very quickly. If you would like something shipping straight away you can order anything we have in stock directly from our website here: https://www.hallornothing.net/shop

How do I pledge for extra copies of anything?
Click Manage Your Pledge on the main page and just add any extra copies you’d like. Whilst shipping will be more cost effective this way, there is no further discount for ordering multiple copies, so we would have to charge whatever we are charged for shipping.

Will there be a Dark alternative art expansion?
We have no plans for that at this time.

How do I make sure my credit card will process payment for foreign currency?
Speak to your credit card provider and advise them that there will be a single unusual transaction on your account at the end of this month.

Thematically speaking, in what chronological order do the World of Kilforth games take place?
In chronological order, the games would go: Kreel Manor Gloom of Kilforth Shadows of Kilforth (close to Gloom, but the gloom spreads from the west) Call of Kilforth Veilwraith

I need a shipping cost.
We won’t have the final shipping prices until the pledge manager opens. This was the case with several of our previous successfully delivered Kickstarters. We require extensive consultation with our fulfilment hubs using the finalised backer information first to determine the most effective shipping techniques, distribution splits and costs, and to maintain responsibility for all of our backers’ games, and for our business’ sustainability. One reason why we were able to deliver Veilwraith in the middle of the pandemic – and why we’re able to continue operating as a tiny publisher in a sea of escalating shipping costs – is because we don’t make up shipping costs, or try to roll them into the prices of our games. As outlined on the main page description, when it comes to shipping: you pay what we pay.

The game, the expansion, the playmat – this all costs money!
Please pledge responsibly. :)

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
