THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR BELIEVING IN THIS GAME.
It's truly a mindblowing prospect to our team of two that almost 2000 of you have joined us to reach 100k on our halfway day! We are so moved by your support and are thrilled to have unlocked our printing upgrade stretch goal!
We also want to say thank you to so many of you who responded to our questionnaire about what you want to see more of going forward during the back half of this campaign and the results are in: More How-To Videos, Live Play Demos, and some beginner/ advances examples of how to incorporate the Session Zero System across different games.
SO HERE'S WHAT'S NEXT! We're going to fold that into and then update the stretch goals we have ahead of us so we can give you what you want to see most! We'll announce the next one tomorrow and get to work making more of what you all want to see.
We have a lot of incredible pans on the fire over the next 14 days and will be coming at you fast with news as soon as we can share more!
Until then we thank you profusely for being here with us!

SHIPPING UPDATE AND A NEW ‘HOW-TO’ VIDEO RELEASED
over 1 year ago
– Wed, Oct 26, 2022 at 08:43:13 AM
Just about halfway there and we have some quick updates to share with all of you!
First... Shipping!
We just heard back from Kickstarter today regarding the initial charge confusion and have come to what we think is the cleanest and most straightforward solution.
The great news right up front is we are able to ship The Session Zero System globally and will make sure to get country location information from each new backer. A new shipping option will be added to pledges labeled "Everywhere" at $0.00 USD and we will update the shipping estimate as we near fulfillment in our Pledge Manager: Backerkit!
We're Partnering with Backerkit as our Pledge Manager!
For those Backers who already pledged, we are going to keep shipping charges as they are and will account for those funds in the Pledge Manager. As we see what rates look like closer to fulfillment we will be in touch with any updates but our intention is to keep that as is!
You areall now Wave 1 Backers and your pledges will be fulfilled with priority over the next phase of Wave 2 Tiers that are currently live on the page!
The main reason for this call comes down to one important factor: 1. there is no easy way to process bulk partialpledge refunds on Kickstarter and we would like to avoid errors by manually editing individual elements inside the Backer Report.
We really appreciate everyone's patience as we sorted out this complex part of the process and want you to know our inbox is open if anyone needs a more specific or individually pressing question answered!
We are happy to work with you given this direction we are heading in next!
While waiting to sort out those details we’ve been hard at work making a ‘How To’ video that many folks have requested! This primarily focuses on how each of the three formats of the Session Zero System can be used to play through Part 3: The Story Path section of the game. You'll also get a better look at each of the different styles we've built inside the PDF, The Art Book, and the Fragment Cards.
If you want to see more snapshots looking at different elements of the game: let us know! We love making different demos like this that help people get a better understanding of what awaits them inside this System.
Weare also nearing our next stretch goal and with more than half our campaign ahead of us, we are looking forward to sharing more of what's in store with all of you!
Cheers,
Mythic Grove

Another in the ledger. That's 3 Stretch Goals reached in 7 days as we close in on 1,500 backers for the Session Zero System!
So far you’ve unlocked the Illustration Upgrade, our Variant Mechanic addition to the PDF, and now the 5 Episode Actual Play with an incredible group of people joining Gabe at the table.
We’re excited to see if we can get to the next Goal of $100,000 to unlock a Printing Upgrade. That means Foil Edges and a magnet snap Box for the Cards, Higher quality paper/ Delux Cover for the Art Book, and more!! We’ll work with GPI to make sure this game is produced at top-notch quality.
And for those backing the PDF: don't worry you’re included in this goal too! With this, we’re going to add additional rules for utilizing The Session Zero system throughout anongoing campaign!These will be variant options for GMs to build lore and encounters that intersperse their player’s Story Paths as well as different ways Players can call on their Story Paths in key moments throughout the game.
You've let us know! We’ve had requests for a more in-depth ‘HowTo’run-through of The Session Zero System and we are on it! Keep an eye out over the next week for a short but detailed video of how the game can be played step-by-step using either the PDF, the Art Book, or the Fragment Deck!
We also have a few incredibly exciting collaborations on the horizon! We are putting the final polish on those opportunities as we speak and will share more shortly!
Until then thank you for continuing on this adventure with us!
