Thank you everyone for helping us reach the $22,500 stretch goal: a 4x6" sticker sheet featuring some of our favorite illustrations from the deck! You can now add these stickers on by editing your pledge.

We've included the challenge coin into the add-on section as well and you can add it to your pledge starting now.

We're now in the final stretch of the project campaign so please help us spread the word and get some additional friends to participate and help us unlock more stretch goals before the deadline!

Thanks again! -David

Woohoo—we reached the $20,000 stretch goal! I'm thrilled to share this amazing illustration that Bob has been working on, featuring his own creation of a map of Wonderland. The map artwork will now appear on the remaining card in the Standard & display decks. It will also be added as a 4-up image in the Jumbo deck.

Additionally, we're now offering an 18"x24" art print of this Wonderland map, available now as an add-on for all backer tiers. You can add the map by editing your pledge.

Extra cards: Wonderland map + Artist self-portrait
18"x24" art print - now available as an add-on

Happy Monday, backers! I'm happy to announce that since we have passed the funding goal, I've now added stretch goals to this campaign (some of which we've already unlocked, and others to be revealed if/when we hit future goals). Here are the unlocked goals:

As always, please share links to this project on social media and directly with anyone you think might be interested and help us reach more stretch goals!

Thanks! - David

Thank you!!

First of all, thank you so much to all you backers who helped us reach our goal already! I'm super excited to see this deck heading towards production and can't wait to get the final cards in everyone's hands.

Stretch goals...

Since we are now past the target, I'll be sharing some stretch goals soon with details on bonus upgrades and additional items that you'll be able to add to your pledges if you'd like. Stay tuned and please share the project throughout your networks of friends, family, and colleagues to help us achieve these bonus goals.

Answers to a few of your questions...

I've had some questions come in from some of you and wanted to share answers here...

Q: What's in the bonus pack?

It will depends a bit on our stretch goal achievements, but the bonus pack will definitely include at least a display deck, a special enamel pin (only available in this pack), and likely some other fun goodies that I'll reveal during the campaign.

Q: What is the display deck and how is it different from the standard deck?

The standard deck includes a blinged-out tuckbox with foil stamping, embossing, and a numbered foil metallic sticker. The display deck will come with a standard CMYK tuckbox of the same artwork but without the extra printing features and no numbered sticker—it is intended to be opened so that you can appreciate the card artwork and use the cards for gameplay. Both decks are available as add-ons to all reward tiers.

Q: Can you share more details about the poker chips?

Absolutely! The chips are printed by a top quality manufacturer who we've worked with many times on previous projects. They are a casino-standard 39mm in diameter, weigh 10g, and are made out of extremely durable ceramic material onto which the design is directly transferred. Here's a video that shows the details up close:

That's all for now but please reach out if you have any other questions. More to come soon...

Thanks! - David
