Batch 4 - Coming February 2026

Wahoo! Pre-Orders for Batch 4 will be available in February 2026.
There's no changes from Batch 3, just more of the same that people love!
They'll be open for the whole month, and orders will be fulfilled in the order they are placed. I can't believe we're in Batch 4 already!

In this email I'll go over our new workshop, and some fun statistics. But first, here's a few of my favorite reviews from Batch 3

"Everything feels authentic, and you can tell this wasn't something just
thrown together. The attention and detail is AWESOME!! People could
honestly believe that the video game came after the board game,
cuz everything looks spot on identical to the game."
- Anonymous

"If you are looking for the definitive way to play the beloved video game (. . .) your search is at
an end, this is for you. The amount of attention to detail, quality and
loved poured into this product is second to none. if you are even
considering making this purchase, do it, you won't regret it."
- Bryan V

"Man this board game is the most beautiful thing in my whole collection.
This piece is so well crafted, so well thought out, it's a straight up
masterpiece."
- Ralph S

There's tons more reviews over on the product page!

I read every single review, and they always make my day.

New Workshop New Me

We've gotten all grown up and moved our workshop! This is such a huge upgrade. For a while now we've been struggling to work in our old workshop (which was my double garage). Squeezing around boxes and overflowing into every nook and cranny we could find.

We now have more than double the amount of floor space, plus about 4x the shelving space from out last location.
We no longer need to keep excess stock in long term storage and drive back and forth every day too!

What I thought would be at most an easy single truck trip, ended up taking two filled to the brim trucks, along with several van trips.
And that's after we'd shipped out all of the Batch 3 stock!

Every shelf and workbench all has more space around it too. We can finally walk around without squeezing through a tiny gap. It really has been a long time coming, and this will take us to the next level!

World Map

Just for a bit of fun I made a world map of where orders have come from! There's 52 unique countries!
And I've shipped to 49/50 US states (I'm looking at you North Dakota)

I never would have imagined something I made would be all around the world like this. It's crazy to think I've touched every part of every box set that's in 52 countries around the world.

Thank you all! And special shout out to that order from the Faroe Islands! Even the postal service was surprised to see that one come through.

That's it for this update! I'll start up some promotion for Batch 4 over on Instagram and you'll hear from me again when it's launched.

We've shipped all of the Batch 3 orders, so if you haven't received yours definitely contact me so we can sort that out.

As always shoot me an email if you have any questions or just want to chat.

Cheers,
Nathan
