WHAT’S ALL THIS NOISE ABOUT SOME GRID GAME CAMPAIGN?
Let’s just start right out of the gate that we (Friendly Rabbit Inc) have absolutely zero affiliation with the grid game campaign or it’s creators.
The only connection that we have is that one of our co-founders had also backed that campaign over >5 years ago and had his money stolen by them (like many other fellow Kickstarter backers here).
We tried to give them ample time to fulfill on their promise to all of us, and even contacted them to see if they’d let us help them fulfill their promise (with no response). Over the years they made many excuses why they had not been able to deliver yet and eventually went completely dark.
Finally we decided to give up on them and make our own version of the game ourselves. Although many of us lost our money, we think there may be a great silver lining. During our own research and development we noticed a few things about their version that if delivered would have been a pretty inferior product.
a) they were using foam that was CNC machined into separate pieces that had to be glued together. Not only did this leave room for pieces to break or fall apart, but they were also not accurate at all, leaving gaps which made the game perform poorly when layed out on the play table.
b) their wood version looked fantastic too but would also ultimately have the same issues as above. Each piece could not be produced identically, and had to be glued together by hand.
That said, as a big believer of our Kickstarter community, we believe that the best products are made from collaboration, and in the end with your support and feedback, we’ll be creating a game that will be far superior than what the grid game campaign attempted to do.
For starters, we are using a Soft PVC that is extremely long lasting, is precision molded making it highly accurate and very durable. We’re making them in a thick and large size - like a poker chip, but much thicker. We’ve also improved the rules and made our own adjustments as well as added an awesome expansion pack that really shakes things up. Finally with your feedback, we can only make the game even better!
Lastly, for all the poor souls who lost their money pledging to the grid game campaign, we are going to be giving you a free expansion pack for each main game you order as a show of solidarity and a thank you for supporting this campaign. We want this to be made as much as you do, and appreciate all of your support.
Simply make sure you leave a comment on the Grid Game Campaign so we can validate your name with your reward.
Thanks again to all of you for your support!
We look forward to all of your feedback and comments.Sincerely,
Jordan and the Friendly Rabbit Team.
