Latest Updates from Our Project:

Important Logistics Update
over 1 year ago – Fri, Oct 21, 2022 at 01:01:48 PM

Hello, thank you all for being so patient. It has been around a month and a half since our last update, and we found it necessary to inform you all of the developing situations. 

Most Important Update

The cards are DONE! They exist, and our manufacturer has them.  

The Current Situation

Our cards are in China, and the two major factors that caused this current shipping delay are the factory shutdowns and a devastating typhoon which slowed down their production. Currently, we are getting the cards sent overseas to the States as fast as possible.  

New Timeline & Plan

We recently received solid shipping dates that we can now update you with. The plan is to ship these out within 14 business days. With that said, these are expected to have a 2 month lead time from the date it ships. Once it arrives in the States we will have them sent to our distributor, who will send them to backers as soon as they receive them.  From the team at Previously Pluto, we thank you all again for your support and understanding.

We are so close to the finish line, and you all made that happen! Here's looking at you, kid!

Above The Law Expansion Rules Update

This will be our second major expansion update! This expansion will be introducing a new "patrol card" mechanic that is replicating the lingering presence of having a highly policed town. These patrol cards go on the board and are static effects that either help or hinder your interaction with the "WHO", "WHAT" or "WHERE" cards. Just make sure you on the 'right' side of the law when you decide to move forward with your agenda. Below will be a link to the rules in more details and a promotional video.

Card Orders Update

This one is a quick and easy update. From previous posts we are having some troubles but all concerns are being addressed one by one. Right now we only have one more correction before the full order. Once that is resolved we will notify all of you on here!

TooManyGames Convetion

This is a small update but just to show you who are dedicated and keep up with our updates we wanted to give a glimpse of our dedication too! We recently went to TooManyGames Convention and we were able to promote and give some live demos. In short this is top show that we are still trying to get this game out and about. If you would like to know when and where you could see us next follow our socials we still have plans for the rest of the year.

Red Light Expansion and Rules Update

Here is our first major expansion update! We have introduced a new mechanic that is meant to test your luck or break your bucks. In the Red Light Expansion, gambling is the new core gameplay for this expansion where everyone is competing to win the jackpot. We have a few games that can be chosen when playing the base game: Poker, Blackjack or Roulette. With each of these games there will be plenty of opportunities to get the edge on your opponents, are you willing to risk it all? There will be a promotional video that will be attached below and a link to the instructions that will go into more details of how each of those game modes work.

Physical Sample

We are ecstatic to mention that we received our first physical copy of the game and playmat! The reason why we got them is to ensure that the final product is at the best standard we can possibly try to make it. We are currently going over all the different pieces of the game to the cards, to the box and to the instructions and so on for quality assurance. After we're done, we are going to give feedback to our manufacturer and then we will make our mass order to get the game into your hands as soon as possible.

Thank you so much for all of your patience and we will make sure to continue working on making this product better as the weeks lead up to us shipping this game out! We will end this post with some photos of the physical sample.
