How To Print 'n' Play It

Color Print: We suggest bringing the PDFs to a print store (like Staples or a local favorite) and they'll print them on cardstock for a few bucks so you don't have to waste your own printer ink. Then just cut along the red lines. You'll need to print them SINGLE SIDED because we mixed all the card types into one file to reduce the number of pages.
Black and White: You can print them at the store for cheap (maybe even less than a dollar each) or just print the file in greyscale on your home printer to get it ASAP. Most home printers can handle light cardstock if you want it to feel heftier. Again, print only single sided and cut out all the cards on the lines.
Once you print it, just play the game as normal but factor in that the cards have only one side (for example, instead of drawing two double-sided word cards each round, you'll need to draw four single-sided ones!)

Note that the exclusive promo cards aren't included here, these are just the base games. The actual games will have these cards included.

If you do get a chance to play a few rounds, we'd love your feedback! If you spot a typo, confusing wording, or have any suggestions before we send everything to print, now's the perfect time to let us know, as we still have time to make changes!

✍️ Suggested Word Backers: Check Your Email!

If you pledged for the Suggest-a-Word reward, you should have received an email from us asking for your submission.

We've already gotten some fantastic entries:

Dingus
Slug
Weenie

If you haven't replied yet, please do so within one week so we can finalize the artwork. After a few reminders, we'll have to assign a word on your behalf so production can stay on schedule.

We're excited to see what ridiculous vocabulary ends up living in Swearmints forever. And remember: these cards are EXCLUSIVE to the first print of the game - you def wanna be a part of it!

🚚 Production Update

Things are moving right along!

✅ Deposit has been paid and we're finalizing quotes with the mnaufacturer
✅ We're polishing the artwork and final game files before everything heads to print (partly why we need the custom words ASAP)

Meanwhile, we're also working on opening a pre-order store for anyone who missed the campaign.

In a few months we'll send out your Backer Survey, where you'll:

Confirm your shipping address
Choose any applicable pledge options
Pay for shipping
Add extra games or items if you'd like

We'll keep everyone updated as we move through production, but for now it's all about getting these files polished and ready to become real games.

Thanks again for making this possible. We can't wait to get these into your hands! 🍬
