This post originally appeared on the Forsaken Isles and Doomed Run Kickstarter page and is reposted here so that fans can keep up to date with Rock Manor Games projects. Late Pledges are still available for this project!

First off, thank you to the 90% of you that have finished the Pledge Manager survey. If you’re one of the 10% we’re still waiting on, be sure to fill out the survey at your earliest convenience so that we can accurately estimate our print run needs.

Game Progress

Forsaken Isles is effectively done on our end. We’ve already received the edits and made the necessary changes. We’re just have to export the files and send them off to the factory to start preproduction. Last month, we also completed drafts of all the Doomed Run files and sent them off to the editors. Once we get those final changes/edits back, we will be full speed ahead with preproduction.

Estimated (Rough) Timeline

As always, please understand that delays happen and this is just a rough estimate. Late Pledges will be open through Preproduction. Changes of Address will be allowed up until Ocean Freight. Exact cut off and lock dates will be announced in a future update.

June 2023: Editors go through Doomed Run and return comments
July – August 2023: Preproduction with Factory
September – October 2023: Production Window
November – December 2023: Freight Window
January – February 2024: Fulfillment Window

Dangerous Business!

We have more news for the Set a Watch universe this Friday at 2pm EST when we showcase a prototype of Merchants of Magick’s first expansion “Dangerous Business” in our Live Stream. If you missed out on Merchants of Magick the first go around, it’s a crunchy roll and write where you play a Merchant competing to have the most profitable magic item shop. Each round you roll dice and spend two of them to research spells and craft items in an attempt to fulfill the orders in front of you. You’ll be able to grab the original game and the new expansion on Kickstarter in Q4 of this year.

Hope that some of you will stop by for the live QA on Friday. Until next month!
