What an incredible first week it has been.

Just a few days ago, the creatures of the Old Forest gathered for the beginning of a new adventure. Since then, mice, moles, rats, frogs, salamanders, and birds from all corners of the forest have answered the call.

In just one week, you've:
🐭 Funded Mouseborn in just 6 minutes
🐸 Unlocked the Frog Sticker
📖 Unlocked the $25,000 Book Upgrade
🐀 Unlocked the $75,000 Rat Sticker reward
🗺️ Set out on the next quest: $100,000 to awaken the Cicada Kingdom
🎨 Voted on ribbon colors, creature favorites, and campfire dilemmas across the forest

And we're only getting started.

As we enter our second week, there are still new quests to unlock, more creatures to meet, and mysteries waiting beneath the roots and canopies of the forest.

The path ahead leads toward the $100,000 stretch goal, where a brand-new adventure, Awaken the Cicada Kingdom, awaits discovery.

Thank you for joining us on this adventure.

Now gather your supplies, check your map, and keep moving forward.

The forest still has many secrets left to reveal. 🌿

Have you ever dreamed of becoming a small hero in a vast and ancient wilderness?

Of exploring forgotten ruins, defending your home from lurking dangers, and forging your own legend among the roots and branches of the Old Forest?

Whether you're new to tabletop adventures or already love playing creature characters in other games, Mouseborn invites you to step into a world where even the smallest heroes can leave a lasting mark.

But first, the most important question of all:

Who will you become?

Every creature has a story and a place in the Old Forest.

And every creature faces growing threats lurking beyond the safety of their homes.

In the coming days, we'll take a closer look at a few of the dangers that stalk the forest's shadows. After all, every hero needs a villain.

For now, if you haven't already, cast your vote in What Kind of Hero Are You? poll. The faction you choose might change things throughout the campaign... Declare your allegiance and help shape the future of Mouseborn.

Now, back to the forest. There's still plenty of adventure ahead.

The first 48 hours of the campaign are almost over, and your chance to bring home the Frog Jester Pin for free is hopping away with them.

Back Mouseborn at any physical tier before 3pm ET today, and he'll be yours.

Last time, we asked what you think the Frog Jester is really doing in the forest. The results were mixed, but most of you were convinced that he's either a wandering storyteller collecting rumors or simply causing a little harmless chaos wherever he goes.

But what happens if he suddenly appears at your campfire?

In less than 48 hours, Mouseborn has already reached $75,000, unlocking a new quest reward!

The rats have spoken and demanded that you all receive:
🐀 Rat Sticker
🐀 Rat Sticker
🐀 Rat Sticker

That's right. Three. Rat. Stickers. One just wasn’t enough.

All backers will receive all three rat stickers with their pledge on any physical tier.

Thank you for spreading the word across the forest and helping Mouseborn continue to grow. 

📜 Goal: $100,000

Deep within the Old Forest, something ancient begins to stir.

At $100,000, we'll unlock a new adventure story for the search for the sleeping choir.

Every seventh summer the roots shake and hum, heralding the return of the sleeping king and his people.

Can you hear the whispers of the sleeping choir?

Keep sharing Mouseborn with your fellow adventurers and let's see how far into the forest we can travel together. 🌿

We're all here to explore the forest, go on adventures, uncover mysteries, and become heroes.

Buuuut… We're also here because Mouseborn is really, really cute.

From beautifully illustrated characters and detailed miniatures to enamel pins, stickers, and plushies, every piece of Mouseborn is designed to bring the forest to life. Whether you're a brave mouse, a clever mole, a mischievous rat, a noble frog, a curious salamander, or a watchful bird, there's something to fall in love with around every corner.

Today, we wanted to shine a spotlight on two favorites: 

Crafted from premium materials and carefully checked for quality, these plush companions are made with as much love and attention as the world they're inspired by. They're ready to accompany you on your adventures, guard your bookshelf, or simply claim a permanent spot on your couch.

Of course, none of this would be possible without the incredible artists who have helped bring Mouseborn to life.

A huge thank you to every artist who has contributed their talents to Mouseborn and helped create a forest that feels alive, welcoming, and full of wonder.

And a special thank you to CuddleCore Toys for designing the Mouse Fighter and The Toad plushies. We couldn't be happier with how these lovable little creatures turned out.

The creatures of the forest are still debating an important matter: what color should the decorative book ribbon be?

If you haven't cast your vote yet, now's your chance to help decide.

Right now, Frog Paladin Teal has hopped into the lead, with Mole Rootseer Green tunneling close behind. But the race is far from over, and we have a feeling the other creatures aren't ready to surrender the spotlight just yet.

Will the frogs hold their ground? Will the moles stage a comeback? Or will another faction rally its supporters and claim victory?

Cast your vote and help shape the final look of Mouseborn's adventure book. The forest is watching. 👀🌿🐭
