Would it be possible to have the cards already at the right size so I could just print them and sleeve them ? The full page pdf of the cards isn't really useful.
I just bought this game through Drive Thru RPG because I had a birthday gift certificate there and it was the same price as here (though in US funds) but seems to only have come with the main PDF? I was really hoping to print it in Spreads and be able to play with your cards. Is it possible to also get those files from you?
Hello! I sent an email but I haven’t received a response. Hopefully I can get answers more quickly here. I purchased this game through the website and not itch. However, although the cost is the same, I sm missing files that are listed here including the track spreads, playing cards. I am requesting these additional files. Thank you.

Hi, I backed this on itch.io in 2022 on the Queen tier and recently received my physical rewards. However I am missing the die cut sticker that was supposed to come, as described in your message on 23/05/23 via itch.io following the Kickstarter launch. Is this something that can be fixed?
I've bought this game in the "Solo but not Alone" bundle. This game is awesome and has a very nice atmosphere to it. I like the evocative prompts and the simple mechanic.
However, the file available to me was "pdf only" and had no cards. Where can I get access to the printable cards? It would certainly make my games more immersive.
This is a fun, quick to learn game that can be played with anyone of any age! I was lucky enough to back the kickstarter and have a physical copy with the special cards that go with the game and couldn't be happier.
Hi! I’m an educator looking at trying these to get my reluctant readers to write. Do you have a signup list for community copies? This seems like it’s kid-friendly and interesting. :)
Very fun game! This is a perfect solo-journaling game in that it builds the story SO well from prompting the player in addition to having great mechanics. The artwork for this is also absolutely beautiful.
I definitely recommend, and check out the review on TTRPGkids here:
My daughter and I have a podcast about playing roleplaying games with kids: Almost Bedtime Theater. If you are interested in a review and a short actual play of the Dragon Dowser, you can hear us go through it in Episode 19. Even though the game is designed for solo play, it worked out great as a collaborative story game for the two of us!
I'm still super excited about getting my hands on this game one day! I really do hope that folks come across this and continue to help it reach its target.
No, you get charged immediately. It doesn't work the same way as other crowdfunds that succeed or fail on a goal like Kickstarter. Regardless, we have enough funding to produce the cards we wanted, so the book and deck will be delivered complete.
Hello! I wanted to let you know that the third card down is titled "Queen of Spades" but the symbol is a K -- which is for the King. In addition /she/her pronouns are used in the card text :)
I'm really looking forward to this game! I've bene wanting to try a solo jrpg for a while and this is set to be the one!
Congrats on reaching 50% goal! Would you be showing a gameplay video, that would certainly help some of those who are on the fence! Marching forward to 100%!

Hey,
Would it be possible to have the cards already at the right size so I could just print them and sleeve them ? The full page pdf of the cards isn't really useful.
Thanks !

No problem, I’ll send you a free key for the files here. Expect a response tonight.
Apologies, I can't find your email for some reason. Could you send it again to hatchlingdm@gmail.com when you get the chance?
Resent with confirmation of my Itch.io name in the email, too.
Thank you so much I appreciate it!
Any chance there is a printable version without the background?

Great! Next year is good, too. Being a bit closer to Essen than you guys I can go both years. But I definitely will note it down.
Hi!
Is it possible that you'll be at "Spiel" in Essen in September/Oktober?
Assja
Would love to go, but I’m saving all my big trips abroad for next year. Will be GAMA, Essen and Big Bad Con.

In March I will place the cards on our website for download.
Where can we buy a physical copy? Previous links appear to be closed or just not available
You can now order from our website… as of today coincidentally. www.hatchlingsgames.co.uk
got it :)
Looks like it only ships to UK or US. Any idea when shipping to Canada will open up?
We’ll be sending a bunch of copies to Indie Press Revolution in July. That will be your best bet for picking up a copy.

Hi, any chance of the cards being available for PNP ?
+1 👍
Is it still possible to get the physical version?
Absolutely. Head to our preorder page.

How long for the next batch of printed books to ship?
I really enjoyed reading through the game! I made a short video about it!

Um do we get charged once it reaches 100%?
No, you get charged immediately. It doesn't work the same way as other crowdfunds that succeed or fail on a goal like Kickstarter. Regardless, we have enough funding to produce the cards we wanted, so the book and deck will be delivered complete.
Ah OK thank you! Sorry was puzzled when the charge didn't go through right away.

Stunning game and wonderful execution. Very excited to see this live!
This looks so great! Very well put together Itch page too!
Thanks Ben!
Where will this game be shipped from? Just so ppl can gauge shipping/tax
It'll be shipped from the UK by ShipQuest for backers here and in Europe.
Indie Press Revolution will handle US orders.
