What are the sizes for the cards? I like to sleeve my games and want to make sure I have the right sizes when the game comes in.

Project Update: Broken Card Stretch Goal Unlocked!

Hear ye!  Hear ye!  

Thanks to the legions of Monty Python fans out there, we have unlocked the broken card stretch goal!  Yes - because you asked for it - now this special card that breaks the game will be included with the Monty Python Board Game! We're excited to add another level of unpredictability to the game which will lead to greater, more epic quests!  Ehrm...well...at least it will make the player who gets the card scream "Huzzah!"  

Now - on to the updates!  The final prototypes are on the way to us.  Once we have them in hand we'll take many new Polaroid photos and deliver them to you by swallow.  We may even post them here in updates as well to satisfy those who are enamored with technology over the reliability of a migrating bird.  Pish posh!

So stay tuned for more updates coming soon.  And please keep sharing the project with the Monty Python fan in your life.

Project Update: Catapult Revised (New Image) & Nearing Broken Card Stretch Goal

Quick update for everyone.  We've been working with the factory on the engineering of the Catapult for the game and we are pleased to say it is finalized!  We just got in the revised mechanics and were able to fling cows, chickens, and pigs with ease.  We even flung a few knights...don't tell anyone...

Here's a picture of the revised catapult design:


Sproooong! Sound effect not included...we have to leave something for you to do whilst playing the game.

We are also closing in on our late pledge stretch goal to add the "broken card" to the game!  When we reach $349009 the special card will be added to all of the games.  

We are expecting the final prototypes from the factory soon.  Once we have those we'll send out some new pictures for everyone.  And we'll start updating the manufacturing process with details and photos delivered by swallow.  Keep some birdseed on hand and watch for more coming your way soon.

I would agree that the project seemed to go very quick once it ended. What's the next steps? What's going on? Thanks.

Clearly the money is gone. No updates means we got scammed or they are a shit show through and through.

I'm almost sure but the pledge manager survey didn't get send out yet, right? It's a little hard to keep track.

Project Update: New Late Pledge Strech Goal Announcement!

First, we were excited to announce a new stretch goal for everyone as late pledge backers find the Monty Python Holy Grail Game.  Then we were surprised to see that it was a rather unusual card which breaks the game!  And finally, we were amused that only in an epic quest for the Holy Grail could such chaos be unleashed.  Having gone through the full range of emotions and reactions, we are satisfied...well I suppose that is another reaction, now isn't it? 

When we reach $349,009 on the campaign through the late backers pre-order page, this rather chaotic card will be added to the game to add yet another level of foolishness to add to your board gaming delight. 




Help us to reach all the Monty Python fans who wish to quest for the Grail - or at least play a game that lets them pretend to.  Every share helps!

I'm so psyched to go on this holy quest, but I (and everyone else, I can assume) have been curious as to how production is going; have yall met John Cleese yet? I don't want a rush but I also don't want to be left to the killer rabbit without knowing the holy hand grenade is on its way, lol. But seriously, I'm sure we would all appreciate an update. Thank you!

To reduce shipping costs all of the orders for a region could be shipped to a distributor who is then responsible for sending them out to their final destinations. Anything to reduce shipping costs even lower would be appreciated. A third of the cost for the game shouldn't be shipping costs.

Project Update: John Cleese Autographs Something or Other

All the villagers in Camelot were clamoring.  They wanted something autographed by the Monty Python alum and all-around funnyman, Mr John Cleese.  So we said, "Hey - let's get John to sign something."  And God said - "Of course, it's a good idea!"  So, we did!

And in the way of the Holy Grail itself - we don't know what he'll sign.  All we know is that it will be delivered by swallow and that it could be a special game card or a mini print or even a meeple.  The question is - do you want an official thingamabob signed by John Cleese to ship with your Holy Grail Board Game?   If you do - this is for you - click a button and buy yourself a set of the game and a thing signed by Mr. Cleese!  The swallow delivering the autographs could only hold 200...so at the moment, we are limited to that many. We may be able to get more...or not.  if we knew for sure this wouldn't be an official Monty Python collectible.

Project Update: Less Than 10% of the Cleese Autographed Somethings Remaining

We wanted to send out an email tonight to give our West Coast and UK backers a chance to respond before the final hours tomorrow morning.  As I am writing this update, we're down to less than 10% or just 18 units of the Clesse signed somethings and it is looking like we may sell out of the special offer.  

We are sending out a very big thank you to everyone for helping to make this project a big success!
