New Expansion Pack Coming To Black Geyser



Ho there, adventurers!

The Kickstarter campaign for our expansion pack (DLC), Tales of the Moon Cult was successful. Thank you so much to everyone who supported us! Missed the Kickstarter? You can still pledge via PayPal on our Backer Portal.

[h3]Standard Box With Lorebook, Base Game and Expansion Pack - For $43 Only[/h3]

In the meantime, we received several e-mails asking if the standard boxed edition of the game is still available (it wasn't during the Kickstarter, and won't be manufactured in the future either). We checked our old stock and found a couple of copies in perfect state, so we decided to offer these to everyone - including our existing backers, of course. If you love game boxes, lorebooks and want to get the base game+expansion pack as well, you can get all these for only €39 (+ shipping). This is currently less than $43 (+ shipping). There are only a couple of copies left, so don't miss out!

[h3]Standalone Goodies For Collectors[/h3]

Goodies such as the Cloth Map of Isilmerald, the keychains, T-Shirt and mousepad are currently unavailable (the limited stock we have will be required to fulfill the Collector's Edition reward tiers). Having said that, if there is enough interest for them, we will have them manufactured again (manufacturing is only possible in big batches unfortunately). Interested in any of these goodies? Let us know please.

Tales of the Moon Cult Kickstarter Live!



[h3]Greetings adventurers,[/h3]

[h3]We are live on Kickstarter - with awesome rewards and add-ons![/h3]

If the campaign is successful, Black Geyser will get a new DLC - Tales of the Moon Cult! This expansion will add new locations on the world map with brand-new content, creatures, items, spells and riddles! It also introduces a complex questline focusing on the Cult of Zoria and their answer to the avarice and corruption affecting the nations of Yerengal. A completely free fixpack (not requiring the DLC) will be developed as well for Black Geyser, adding Strongholds, Dual Wielding and a number of other features to the base game - you can read more on the campaign page.

[h3]Collector's Edition Box & Exclusive Goodies[/h3]

This Kickstarter is also the last chance to get the Collector's Edition Box (with goodies included) of Black Geyser: Couriers of Darkness.

We've received lot of e-mails from you, asking if the original Black Geyser Collector's Edition Box will be available or not. This truly warmed our hearts, but many things have changed (and not in a good direction) here since 2018. Especially material prices and manufacturing costs/conditions for premium boxes and hardcover books from printing companies skyrocketed. If we offer a Collector's Edition, it means we don't want to give you a box & goodies of questionable quality, while we still want it to be as affordable as possible to a wide range of fans. After a long discussion, we concluded that we'll offer the Collector's Box of Black Geyser for a last time (with all goodies included: hardcover book, cloth map, T-Shirt, mousepad, keychain) and will also include 2 additional keychains of your choice - we now have a brand-new Moon Cult keychain as well! If you already have the Collector's Edition Box but want to get a Moon Cult keychain, you can of course pre-order it as a standalone add-on.

Let's make Tales of the Moon Cult a reality together as a major DLC for Black Geyser!

Kickstarter Coming Soon For Expansion Pack



Greetings, adventurers!

We are happy to announce that we are going to launch a Kickstarter campaign very soon (early October) to fund the DLC's development - its Coming Soon page is already live on Kickstarter!

We encourage you to log in to Kickstarter and subscribe to its launch notification on the Coming Soon page. Your subscription (the number of subscribers) will help us a lot in the planning of the campaign, including the stretch goals.

If the Kickstarter campaign is successful, our studio won't be forced to close, and the DLC is expected to arrive before August 2024.

You can check out this forum post for more details on the DLC and its associated Fixpack. We want to emphasize that this Fixpack will be a free Steam/GOG update to all owners of the base game, so you won't need to purchase the DLC to get it.

Backers of our previous Kickstarter campaign who haven't received their physical rewards yet (game box, lorebook etc.) will receive all items well before the start of the DLC campaign, as all shipping will be completed before the end of September.

Thank you for your support and be sure to join us on Discord, or across social media, to let us know your thoughts.
