The only customers still waiting for their deliveries are now those living in Australia, New Zealand, The UK, or within the EU. Everyone else should have already received their games, or at least have tracking numbers for their games in your email. If you do not, please send me a email at [email protected] and I'll track down the shipment for you.
PLEASE LEAVE A BGG REVIEW AFTER YOU PLAY THE GAME!!!
For an indie publisher like me, mainstream coverage from big reviewers and content creators is pretty much impossible to get. So BGG reviews are REALLY important for new potential customers to decide if the game is worth buying or not.
HOW TO PLAY POND!!!
Speaking of content creators, I was very happy to sponsor the incredible Board Game Garden to create the official "How To Play" video for POND~ If you're a visual learner, then this video will be a great resource before starting your first game!
FAQs and Erratas
With people now playing the game, I've had a few frequently asked questions over in my discord server, and I've begun compiling them on the FAQs & Erratas page on my website! There are also 3 erratas. For your convenience, I'll put them here as well:
Wizard Frogs Faction Ability (nerf):
OLD: Transmutation - Once per turn, you may remove 1 of your frogs in a Pond with no enemies to draw 2 cards, then discard 1 card.
NEW: Transmutation - Once per turn, you may remove 1 of your frogs in a Pond with no enemies to draw 1 card.
Banana Frogs Faction Ability (reword):
OLD: Slip and Slide - One per turn, when you March, you may move 1 enemy Frog along with each of your Frogs in that March.
NEW: Slip and Slide - One per turn, when you March, for each Frog you moved, you may also move an enemy Frog from the same Pond to any adjacent Pond.
Rule for when your deck is empty:
OLD: If your deck is empty, you must immediately Hibernate a card from either your discard or play area. Then shuffle your discard pile to form a new deck.
NEW: If your deck is empty and you need to draw, you may immediately choose a card from your discard pile to Hibernate, then shuffle your discard pile to form a new deck.

POND is now available on my website and on Amazon US!
If you know a friend who missed out on the campaign, they can now order the game directly from meor on Amazon! Preferably directly from me, because Amazon takes almost 30% of the cut (Which is why I also raised the prices slightly on Amazon).
The art friends expansion (which was free for backerkit backers) is limited in number and sold as an separate expansion for $20.
Thank you to all of the backers who helped bring this game to life and for your patience in receiving the game. I tried really hard to make the game feel as gorgeous as possible, so I hope playing it will bring you lost of joy (even though the gameplay is just as competitive and ruthless as it's inspiration, ROOT haha)
