Wow what an amazing day: many new backers, but also many upgraded pledges to the $25 and $36 levels! And they made a HUGE difference. And now a new day has dawned with 14 hours left in the campaign and we are so close. Less than $3000 to go. Can we do it? If you ask us...
The baby knows.
The Bearded Meeple did another playthrough and review for us. Watch and share it right here.

You can bet we will have a sharp eye on the goings on down to the very last minute. If you have questions or concerns, send them to us via message or comment and we'll jump right on it.
It's going to be a photo finish!
Quittin' time...but not for us!

It's the weekend and there's so much to celebrate, including that we unlocked Gothic Estate earlier today! And now we are fully on the march toward the 5 player Holy Sanctuary expansion. Pretty cool, backers!
That "UNLOCKED" looks really good!
It is only on Kickstarter that our collective journey is winding down. In less than 7 hours we close the door on the first half of this journey, but open another and get to work on bringing to life that which we promised. We have worked our tails off to ensure success and to see you get the most bang for your gaming buck. I think on average we had a piece of content--radio, blog, video, podcast, or gaming event--every single day of the campaign. And as we move forward, we'll work just as hard to get the actual game into your hands, and as quickly as possible.
It's going to be a photo finish!
With $1300 until our final stretch goal, this will definitely be exciting to the very end. As always, we thank you and we are excited for the next 6 hours. We'll be glued to our computers just like you!
$22K...outta the way!

We blew through another stretch goal overnight, and just like that we are on to the big ones: Gothic Estate and the Holy Sanctuary 5-player expansion. Exciting times ahead!

Read the book!
Well, at least look at it. As you know, I was in Chicago last weekend with KrakenPrint finalizing the specs on the art book. While this is subject to change, here's what we're looking at: hardcover, 40-48 pages, 6" x 9", which matches the dimensions of the original watercolors. Each piece will be presented in pairs, with the original pencils--the image we chose AND the one we did not--and the finished watercolors on facing pages. There will be some additional text, but it will be minimal.
Gothic Estate Vote
Remember that the Gothic Estate subdivision of Guildmore is only 60% finished, and we want you to tell us which pencil sketches Corinne should bring to life with her watercolors. Click here and cast your vote for the Druid Circle and Haunted Caravan you like best.
"It's freezing out here! Go vote!"
Two...two...two games in one!
Throughout the course of the campaign, people have been saying, "Marc, I love me some Unreal Estate, but can I get 2 copies?" Well finally the answer is "Yes!" We have decided to offer another backer level for those who want UE for themselves, but who also want a second copy for a bigger game, or to gift, or maybe just to cuddle with at night. And you'll notice that shipping for 2 copies is the same as for one. So here's your shot at another copy and to lower those pesky shipping fees. Good for you and good for the campaign. And speaking of that...
Doing the math
As of this writing our campaign stands at almost $23K, and that includes 800 backers at the $18 level. Let me be very clear: I don't want you to buy something you don't want. I do want to point out that if about 75% of backers increase their pledge from the $18 level to the $25 or $36 level, we would unlock ALL of the remaining stretch goals. At the end of the day, we're going to deliver an amazing game to you. But we would all like everything to be in the box. Much of our growth is going to come from new backers in the remaining hours, but a pledge upgrade is another way to make this happen.
"Ah...access granted!"
Thank you for an amazing ride so far. We can't wait to see what the next 2 days brings!
Here we go! Who's ready?

Even Oprah's excited!
Yes, it's true! The Art of Unreal Estate will be a hardcover. Woo hoo!
And according to Superbacker Venron, if you check our progress on Kicktraq, it will move us up the hotness and put us on even more people's radars! What are you waiting for?

Not just a game, but a company

Dear backers,
From the beginning I have planned on bringing you not just a fantastic game in Unreal Estate, but also a fantastic company, Grand Gamers Guild. We plan to make awesome games for years to come. We are well on our way with this campaign, and you may be aware that there are 3 other games in queue:
Stroop by Jonathan Chaffer, Endangered by Joe Hopkins, and Pocket Ops by Brandon Beran.
To get Grand Gamers Guild off to the best start possible, I need to grow my audience. That way, I know I’ll be able to tell new people about these great games coming down the pipeline every which way possible. To keep driving toward that goal, I’ve come up with a new offer for you. If, by the end of the Kickstarter campaign, we have met any one of the following goals:
500 Facebook Likes
OR
125 Twitter Followers
OR
350 Email Subscribers
I will cover the cost of an upgrade for our book "The Art of Unreal Estate" from paperback to hardcover as a thank you for your help in growing my audience! Although the jump in cost from paperback to hardcover is a bit steep, I won’t feel any hesitation in making this investment if I know I have an active group of people who are excited about what Grand Gamers Guild is doing. I feel the Unreal Estate art deserves a hardcover book, and I would be thrilled to provide this for everyone.
Here’s how you can help:
Retweet this tweet on Twitter or Share this post from your Facebook page about the e-mail signup sweepstakes. With a few sincere words of support from you and the extra reach your social media shares will give us, we believe we can get this campaign to 1000 pledges and achieve all the awesome stretch goals we’ve outlined for the campaign. Thank you for your pledges, your support, and your belief that we can make this happen.
