Good news everyone -


The games have shipped and are on their way to our distributor!

I'll send another update once the games are on their way to our killer backers 🔪💀

Quick Update
over 1 year ago – Mon, Oct 10, 2022 at 07:21:42 PM

Hello everyone!


I've had a few people ask so just a quick update to keep everyone just as in the loop as I am. The manufacturer initially told me that the games would be shipped by the end of September but apparently, there was a minor issue with the Evidence Folders so she had to have them reprinted.


On 10/8, she informed me that they would go out by 10/9, but I haven't received definite confirmation about whether or not they were shipped. I have also messaged our distributor and I'm just waiting to hear back from him!


I imagine that, if it hasn't already been shipped, it's very close to being shipped to our distributor. Once the games arrive at our distributor's warehouse, they'll begin sending them out to all of our backers (you!). I was trying to wait until I had more concrete details before sending out an update but a few people have messaged me and I'd rather everyone knows what's going on! In our initial timeline review on the Kickstarter page, we quoted that they'd be arriving between September - November 2022, and I do still think that's true! Unfortunately, I can't control what happens with the manufacturer and distributor, but I am constantly emailing them and doing everything that I can to make sure this is as streamlined as possible.


I will send another update as soon as I receive confirmation that the boxes are on their way to the distributor.


Thank you all so much for your patience and I can't wait for you to get your games!


Have a spooky day 👻,

Chelsea

Party Extras are Live!

As promised, our website has officially been updated with some free printables to make planning your party even easier! Check out murdersincorporated.com/speakeasy to find downloads for:



Plus a Quick How to Video and a Spotify Playlist! We do plan on creating a much longer Video Walkthrough on how to play soon.


We have also added the names of everyone who filled out that section on our survey to our website! If you requested that your name be left out or left the questions blank, you were not added, but feel free to message me if you've changed your mind! You can all find yourselves here:

murdersincorporated.com/murderers


You all probably received an email from Backerkit early today as well. Addresses will lock in 48 hours, so if you need to change anything in BackerKit, you can do so here:

https://murderatthespeakeasy.backerkit.com/


I have gotten a few questions about exact shipping times. I know that everyone is excited to plan their party (we're also so excited!) We, unfortunately, do not have much control over the manufacturer/distributor, however. I have been emailing them consistently and getting great updates, but I cannot guarantee that the parties will be there within a certain timeframe, I would hate to make promises that we can't keep.


What I can tell you is that we're doing our best to make sure things go out as soon as possible!


Lastly, the order for the t-shirts has been placed! These will most likely be shipped separately so if you ordered one, you can expect to receive it in a different package.  

Here is the final proof I was just sent:

I cannot tell you how grateful we are to all of you and how much we appreciate you all! Hopefully, my next update will be that the orders are ready and about to ship! If you have any questions in the meantime, please let me know!


Stay spooky ya'll 🔪!

Update from our Manufacturer!
over 1 year ago – Wed, Sep 07, 2022 at 01:25:26 AM

Hello, Spooky Friends!


I just reached out to our manufacturer and they let me know that they plan to have the Box Kits done by the end of September! It's a little later than we had initially planned, but we're hoping that they will still make it to you by Halloween! Once the manufacturing is done, we have our distributors on standby to get the orders out to you.


Near the middle of September, you will all receive emails from Backerkit just to verify your addresses. If you've moved since this project started, that's a perfect time to edit your address.


As always, please reach out to us with any questions!


Happy Spooky Season,

Chelsea
