Can I buy multiple copies?
Yes, simply add an additional $24 to your pledge for every desired copy! If you pay $48 or more on your pledge, we will contact you directly to verify the number of copies you desire to purchase, as well as if you’d like them shipped to multiple addresses.

If I buy extra copies, I can ship them separately?
That’s right! We know that copies are often purchased as gifts for friends or family, and we will make that easier for you! We will get the additional addresses after the campaign has ended.

Will it really take a year for delivery?
Hopefully, the product deliveries will be completed much sooner, but we felt that it was better to exceed the set expectations than to make promises we couldn’t fulfill.

Will there be any expansions?
That’s up to you! Howling Hog is more than willing to consider expansions if there is enough demand for it. Feel free to leave your thoughts on what you’d like to see! Check out the comments section for some hints at our ideas!

Why aren't there any stretch goals?
This is our first Kickstarter, but hopefully it is apparent that we at Howling Hog Games are doing everything within our control to ensure a successful launch for all those involved. In line with this awareness, we’ve attempted to streamline our process with a single pledge level and no stretch goals. We wanted to take preventative measures to make sure we aren’t biting off more werewolf than we can chew.

Will the game be available in other languages besides English?
We do not have any translations at this time. If there is enough demand for any particular language we will definitely reconsider manufacturing a translated version. Otherwise, the cost of manufacturing even the minimum order of 1,000 copies for any particular language would be far too high.
Overall, the amount/range of text (other than the rulebook) is minimal so the language barrier should be on the low side. Even with only a small demand for a translation, we might be able to put together a reference sheet (text only) that translates the cards and rules.

How does the Custom Character Design pledge work?
For the premium backer that wants a unique version of The Curse of Misfortune Lane, this level entitles you to a copy of the game that will include an additional kid character modeled after a likeness design of your choice. You’ll be able to send us a name, a photo (you, your kid, your pet, your least favorite president, or whoever you want to be the likeness), as well as about a page of context to help us create your unique Kid with his or her own unique ability! Ever wondered how your goldfish would fare against the Zombies of Misfortune Lane? Get her a blunderbuss and lets see what she can do! To clarify, this custom card will ONLY be in your edition of The Curse of Misfortune Lane. Let us know your thoughts!

How does the Retailer Deposit pledge work?
With the growth of Kickstarter and online retailers like Amazon, it is becoming more and more difficult to maintain a brick and mortar retailer. Kickstarter is pivotal to small-time designers like us, but we don’t want to forget those traditional shops that got us all hooked on great games. W’ve added a discounted retailer-only bundle pledge option to our campaign and the following details will break it down:
- Retailers must be located in the U.S., Canada, U.K., or Australia
- Retailers must provide proof of a brick and mortar location.
- Games will be sold in bundles of 5, 10, and 15. (Please message us if you’d like more, we certainly won’t turn you away). -A $50 pledge deposit is required, the remaining balance will be collected prior to shipping. -A representative of our team will contact you within a month of the completed Kickstarter to finalize your order
For more info, feel free to message Howling Hog Games on here or any of our other pages

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.
