[h2]Dear Explorers,[/h2][p]We have some very exciting news to share: we worked together with Makeship to design We Were Here plushies and the campaign is live starting today! Meet the Best Friend and Worst Friend plushies, inspired by all those times your buddy either saved you… or locked you in the dungeon “by accident.”
[/p][p][/p][h3]How it works[/h3]

• [p]Support the campaign by grabbing your plushie(s) on Makeship.[/p]
• [p]If we reach 100% funding, the plushies are officially going into production.[/p]
• [p]Didn’t make the goal? No worries, everyone gets a full refund.[/p]
• [p]Once funded, your new fluffy partners take 2–4 months to make, then ship right to your door.
  [/p]

[h3]✨ A little bonus[/h3][p]Can’t choose? Don’t! If you pick up both the Best Friend and Worst Friend plushies, you’ll get 5% off, because let’s be real: We Were Here is always better with a partner.[/p][p]Keep both as a trophy for your “flawless” comms, or gift one to your partner-in-crime so they never forget who really left who behind…
[/p][h3]🔗 Bring them home: [/h3][p]💙 Best Friend Plushie[/p][p]😈 Worst Friend Plushie[/p][p][/p][p]We can’t wait to see these little buddies on your shelf (or stuck in Castle Rock with you). Let’s make it happen, together.
