What makes this game unique?

Heroes of Barcadia is a 2-6 player tile-based, dungeon-crawling tabletop party game with a liquid twist: your character’s health is measured by the drink in your glass. (Not a common component in other tabletop games, is it?)

When will my copy of the game be delivered?

The game is made and we have already gotten the digital sample we have been using for our images and playtesting. Once we approve the production sample, the game will be printed and shipped. We added in some buffer time for revisions and shipping delays and feel confident that you will have it no later than March 2022. As you know, unforeseen delays may occur, but we will be updating you along the way!

Are you accepting Retail/Wholesale orders?

Yes. USA-based retailers and game cafes may back us at the Merchant of Barcadia level which will enable you to purchase copies of the game at 50% off MSRP in our pledge manager. The Pledge amount will be credited towards your order. Minimum order: 6 copies. Shipping is not included.

How old do you need to be to play the game?

The box says 21+ because we need to legally say that. The game doesn’t come with alcohol, just alcoholic puns.

Will I need to pay customs / VAT / additional taxes on my pledge?

How do you know that I'm one of the first 200 orders to make sure I get my free coin?

Each pledge gets a backer number. The first 200 people who back the “Hero of Barcadia” tier or higher will get the coin as long as the order is not canceled or downgraded. If you update to a larger pledge we will still know who you are. ;)

If you translate the rules into another language will you print those rule books and send them?

No. The translated rulebooks will only be available digitally in a PDF format. You’ll be able to download the appropriate PDF on our website.

Last updated: June 07, 2021 08:17

Will you translate the full game into my language?

Not at this time. If you need, you can download the Google Translate app and use your camera to translate the text on the cards. Once we have a publisher that will print in your native language, you will be the first to know!

When would I get my Heroes of Barcadia Roll20 key?

The game (without the added stretch goals and content) is already finished. We will need to update the game with the new stretch goal content that has been unlocked and then we will send them out. We’re estimating 2-3 months after the campaign closes.

Last updated: June 07, 2021 08:17

Which Rulebook translations have been unlocked?

Thanks to a huge amount of international support, we’ve unlocked: French, Italian, German, Spanish, Danish, Swedish, and Dutch! This will be available as a downloaded PDF once the game is delivered.

BackerKit FAQ

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.
