Hello awesome, original Crystallo Kickstarter backers!
This is such a fun add-on that we couldn’t be more excited about! Not only is it tiny and adorable, we’ve upgraded it to waterpoof PVC cards, and a neoprene zipper pouch, so this is a version of Crystallo you can truly play anywhere! (Except an airplane tray table, small enough cards to make that possible do not exist 🤣) I think this would make a fantastic gift for just about anyone!
It’s so dang small! 😍
2. Other sweet add-ons, like: a smaller (and quite pretty) top row playmat to keep your cards organized as you play, and an expanded Adventure Log to make it easy to keep score— complete with a bunch of bonus objectives to cross off (like a 15 minute speed run, or freeing the creatures in a particular order.) So nice to have if you play a lot!
3. A series of special enamel pins to mark various achievements in the game. We’ll be shipping them with pledges on the expansion Kickstarter at no extra charge. (Check out the latest update there for more information!)
(Not final art- but this is the concept! 7 interlocking pins for 7 game achievements.)
4. The expansions themselves!
“These expansions add a new layer to the puzzly decision making that makes Crystallo a masterpiece in the first place, thereby enhancing the experience in the exact way one hopes an expansion would.” - Mondo Davis, Games By Mondo
Regardless of whether you join the new campaign or not, thank you all so much for being an integral part of Crystallo’s success- I absolutely wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for you ❤️
Cheers,
Liberty

To my awesome backers,
Wow, I can’t believe it’s been over 4 years since I launched Crystallo. It was the scariest, most exhilerating, best *and* hardest experience of my creative life so far. Since then, Crystallo has taken on a life of its own and continues to be played around the world—about that, my feelings are far less complicated. Happy, thankful, proud. I owe soooo much of that to YOU!
For a while, I really didn’t think I could, or would, ever do another Kickstarter, or make another game, for that matter. But... ideas have a way of taking hold, and over the last couple of years, I couldn’t shake the desire to expand the world and gameplay of the game that I had so much fun making.
It turns out that now that these expansions are finished, and real, I absolutely cannot wait to share them with you all. I’ve poured my heart into making them as beautiful, challenging, and fun as humanly possible. Consider them my way of saying thank you for... well, everything!
If you’re interested in following along with this next chapter of the Crystallo story, you can follow the project to be notified when it launches, using the link below:
and please don’t hesitate to ask questions, I’m happy to hear from you!
Cheers,

Kickstarter Wrap-up

Hey Folks! Happy new year and happy holidays!
We at Deep Water are bringing this Kickstarter to a close. As of right now if you've filled out your survey your reward should have been shipped. If it wasn't or you emailed us at [email protected] we're working through those right now and your reward will be en route when we figure out what you're missing.
We'll still be regularly checking for late surveys and sending those out; however, we're going to be closing down the pledge manager within the next month so make sure you fill your survey out if you want your rewards. Otherwise, post pledge manager we'll be handling any issues through customer service.
Thank you all again for your patience with us during this process and we're excited to give Crystallo a bright new future.
Speaking of the future:
Liberty here (yes, I’m alive!)
I’m excited to be able to say that Crystallo is now making its way into retail, in a shiny new retail box! It has a barcode and everything! (Yes, I’m a dork.) Perhaps most exciting to me, we have a Barnes & Noble exclusive version in stores, with a special bonus treasure card. With moving to the middle of nowhere, I havent been able to go visit it in person, but a few family and friends have sent me pictures, which is a surreal feeling.
I never thought this campaign would take off the way it did, and it turned out that was just the beginning of the surprises that were in store. I’m immensely thankful to *everyone* who supported this project along the way and helped it succeed (including the Zafty team) and especially to the folks at Deep Water, who not only took over some difficult fulfillment logistics, but gave me the freedom to take some time off mentally from what had become a really stressful situation. But my biggest thanks are to YOU, because your belief in this game and in me made all of this possible.
As for other good news, I’m happy to report my baby girl #4 was born healthy on September 18th and is now a giggling, roly poly, almost 4-month-old who is absolutely adored by all. I am delighted to know that while this journey is ending, Crystallo is going on to have new adventures in the world, and I hope you will have a lot of fun with it. Again, thank you all for your support, your patience, your understanding and encouragement. Wishing you a happy and peaceful 2021!
Cheers, Liberty
An update on fulfillment and a Fantastic New Project

Fulfillment
The only outstanding places to receive Crystallo is EU, AU, Rest of World. And orders with a playmat.
Australia should have started shipping already! Let us know when you get it!
For EU and RoW your packages are being processed by the warehouse in the EU and should start shipping out this week as long as everything goes smoothly with the processing!
For playmat orders, the playmats are on the ocean and will be stateside October 15th. We should be able to start fulfill the orders with playmats by early November!
I know y'all have been eagerly waiting and we truly appreciate your patience with us!
With your help, we were able to give Crystallo (one of the coolest solo card games since Solitaire) a wider release. Now, we ask that you take a look at our next project: Fantastic Factories: Manufactions!
Fantastic Factories can be played with 1 to 5 players, but it also includes Solo AI! With the Manufactions and Subterfuge expansions, new challenges are introduced that forces the player to evolve their strategy.
