Is KINLESS a Choose Your Own Adventure (CYOA) book?
In short, no.
KINLESS is a role-playing game adventure, designed to be compatible with the Mörk Borg RPG. As a solo adventure, it can be played alone or with one player and a gamemaster (GM).

What is Mörk Borg?
Mörk Borg is a pitch-black apocalyptic fantasy RPG about lost souls and fools seeking redemption, forgiveness or the last remaining riches in a bleak and dying world. The rules are easily made compatible with most of the editions of the world’s largest role-playing game.

Can I upgrade my pledge in the PledgeManager
Yes!
Once the Kickstarter has ended and we open up the pledge manager, if you want to change your pledge, or pick up additional add-ons (like the art prints) you can do so.
BackerKit will collect any additional funds required, along with shipping, and provide an easy checkout process.
This also applies if you just want to “hold your spot” for the pledge manager and not select any rewards at this time.

Why isn't the art... (rougher, grimmer, darker, gorier, Mörk Borgier, etc)?
We feel there are a large number of great supplements and adventures for Mörk Borg that hew to the established aesthetic. We wanted to try something different.

Do you need any additional artists for KINLESS?

Why is US shipping so high on your Kickstarter page?
That was a rough estimate based on what it would take to ship our largest & heaviest item. We have since adjusted it down.
It’s tricky because shipping rates have seen a lot of flux lately, and with added stretch goals, most/all of the packages would no longer qualify for Media Mail and many may be too heavy for First Class Mail, leaving only Retail Post and Priority Mail, which are very close in price.
Apologies for the confusion.

Why are you offering a GM Screen for a solo game?
That’s a fair question. The GM Screen is, of course, entirely optional.
KINLESS is meant to be played alone -OR- with one player and a GM. Some GMs like screens, others don’t. It’s also an opportunity for us to make something fun that could see use beyond just KINLESS.
The plan is for the GM screen to feature some KINLESS themed art (from the book) on the outside, and lots of useful charts and tables on the inside that could be used with ANY fantasy RPG, not just KINLESS or Mörk Borg.
So if you know someone who likes to collect cool, useful GM Screens, it sounds like you already have Christmas 2022 all figured out!

Why didn't you do a Kickstarter video for your project?
Honestly, we didn’t think most people watched those. Lesson learned.

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
