Project FAQ
It comes back to you as a discount on shipping, automatically.
The Standard Edition ($59.99) will be available in US retail in November.
Same great hike, fancier gear. The Chalet Edition upgrades 40 components from chipboard to wood, adds screen-printed wildlife, double-layer player mats, and a cloth Trail Site Bag — plus the free mini expansion. Full side-by-side is on the campaign page.
Extra copies of each item will be available to add to your order in the pledge manager after the campaign.
We'll open Wave 2 right here on the campaign — same game, same price, delivering in January. You'll always know which wave you're in before shipping is charged.
Yes — the Chalet Edition will be available on our Webstore and Amazon in the future. It will not include the free expansion. If we sell out here, you can expect it to be available in retail in Q1 of 2027.
The only items available in the pledge manager will be Parks Europe, Extra Carabiner Sets, and Parks Summit Edition.
This first printing of Parks Europe will be in English. We work closely with localization partners to bring our games to fans around the world and will share more information about localizations in the future. Those localizations will be available in 2027.
No, late pledges will not be offered after the campaign closes. Games will be shipping from our manufacturer in September and need to be routed to the appropriate shipping hub. As such, you can expect a fast turnaround from us in getting the pledge manager set up and completed.
To start the campaign, we don't have a retailer offer. We will revisit that decision throughout the campaign. Check back for more info.

Not at all. Parks Europe is a standalone game — everything you need is in the box. If you've played PARKS you'll feel right at home, and if you haven't, this is a perfect first trail.
Yes — it's an expansion for Parks Europe, not a standalone. It's included free with every Chalet Edition, so if you're backing here, you're covered.
1–5 players, 40–70 minutes, ages 10+. Solo and 2-player games can bring in Ranger Greta for an extra challenge. Want these added to the FAQ section of the campaign draft? I'd also suggest one more that only you can answer: "Will there be a solo/expansion/next entry?" — backers always ask, and a straight answer (even "nothing to announce yet") beats silence.
BackerKit FAQ
BackerKit Crowdfunding is an all-or-nothing collaborative funding platform. Creators share their project ideas and set a funding goal with a deadline. Backers pledge money to help make the project possible.
If the project meets its goal by the deadline, pledges are charged and the creator moves forward. If it doesn’t, no one is charged.
Backers often receive special rewards for their support, such as:
- Exclusive products
- Bonus rewards for backing related projects
- Discount pricing
- Behind-the-scenes updates
- Creative input opportunities
Pledging in crowdfunding is a commitment to support the creation of a new product or project. Unlike a traditional purchase, you're not buying an item that already exists. Instead, your contribution helps bring a creative idea to life, and in return, you typically receive rewards (such as the product itself) as a thank you for your early support.
- Select a pledge level with the reward(s) you would like to receive
- Select any add-ons
- Confirm your pledge!
- You are charged only if the campaign meets its funding goal.
- Charges happen when the campaign ends, not when you pledge.
The creator will send you a survey to:
- Ask you for more information about your rewards (selecting options, etc)
- Collect shipping information
- Offer additional items you may want to add to your pledge
- Collect shipping fees (if applicable)
The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge. Additional payments are charged when you complete the survey.
Only the project creator and the BackerKit Support Team can see your pledge and contact information. Other backers and the public cannot see your individual pledge amount or personal details.
You can change or adjust your pledge level and add-ons before the campaign ends. After the project concludes, cancellations or changes are at the creator's discretion and may depend on what stage the project is in.
Overtime Mode extends your campaign past its original end time to give backers a final chance to make their pledge. It will add an additional 10 minutes past the end time as long as pledges keep coming in. The campaign will end when there is a 10-minute period without any new pledges.
