Unlocked: The stories that time forgot
With this stretch goal, every player board will reveal a richly woven origin story on the reverse, transforming each of our 7 hunters into a living legend and adding a new layer of discovery to your Kryptothera adventure.

Unlocked: The hidden truths of Kryptothera
This stretch goal unveils the game’s secret lore, beautifully laid out on the reverse of the board, transforming it into a gateway to the world’s forgotten past and untold mysteries.

Unlocked: The hunters' true potential
This stretch goal unlocks unique abilities for each character, tailored to their background, temperament, and hidden talents. Each skill adds a new layer of strategy and asymmetry to your crew. Play your game, your way.

Unlocked: The cryptic path
This stretch goal adds a secret storyline hidden within the game. Clues scattered across cards, artwork, and flavour text reveal fragments of a mysterious society known as the Legendary Order. Will you decode the puzzle?

Unlocked: The mini-legacy campaign arc
This campaign unfolds across multiple sessions, no stickers, no destruction. Your games become chapters in an evolving narrative. Each time you play, you check for progression triggers, and when the time is right, parts of the expansions seamlessly enter the story. The deeper you go, the more the world reveals itself.

Unlocked: The ultimate endgame story
Etched inside the game box lies a hidden puzzle. If discovered, it unlocks The Legendary Order Plan: a secret betrayal path that allows one player to abandon the race for points and steal victory through alternative means.

Unlocked: The shimmer of prestige
With this stretch goal, every copy of Kryptothera will feature stunning gold foil detailing, capturing the glint of forgotten treasures and transforming your game into a true collector’s artefact from the exclusive first print run.

Merry Cryptid-Mas! Your Christmas Present Awaits

2025-12-24 11:26:32


Hunters,

The snow is settling…

The lanterns are glowing…

And three very festive cryptids have forced their way into our office to deliver a message.



(We were going to write something dignified and elegant, but they insisted.)



A Holiday Visit from the Monstrous Holidays Cryptids



Yulewalker Bigfoot

burst through the door carrying a tree.

A whole tree. Still decorated.

Where he found it is unclear.

He dropped it in the middle of the office and declared, “This one is yours now.”


Gravy Reaper Wendigo

followed quietly behind, clutching a steaming pot of… something.

It claims it’s “traditional festive gravy.”

We have unanimously decided not to investigate further.



Black Valentine Mothman

swooped in last, scattering glittering heart-shaped confetti that floats for an unnervingly long time and hums faintly when no one is looking.



Together, after causing more mayhem than should be legal, they agreed on one message:



**Wishing you a warm, joy-filled Christmas and a magical New Year**

from all of us, and all of them.**

Now that the cryptids have finished redecorating our workspace, it’s time for your gift.



🎁 Your First Look at the Kryptothera Comic 



This is a moment we’ve been incredibly excited to share.

Our collaboration with Mad Robot Comics and the legendary Andy Lanning has given life to a brand-new way to experience the world of Kryptothera.

And today, you get the very first look.

Below is an exclusive preview panel/page from the upcoming Kryptothera Comic capturing the tone, the tension, and the Art Deco mystery that defines our world.

We could not be happier with how it’s taking shape.

There’s so much more to show you in the months ahead.



✨ Thank You for an Unforgettable Year

2025 has been monumental for Kryptothera:

The campaign surpassed all expectations

We completed every production file (a small Christmas miracle in itself)

We began partnerships with world-class distributors and fulfilment teams

And now… the comic universe begins

Thank you for believing in this strange and beautiful world we’re building.

2026 is going to be incredible.

More reveals, more mischief, more cryptids.

And of course, the start of mass production.



📅 Looking Ahead: Pledge Manager Opens 10 January

A quick reminder:

The Pledge Manager (and Late Pledge window) will open on 10 January.

Full details arrive in your inboxes nearer the time and in updates, with no puzzles, no riddles, and no Wendigo-themed surprises. We promise.



Happy holidays, Hunters.

Stay warm, stay curious, and if you hear footsteps in the snow…

it’s probably fine.

See you on the hunt,

Vangelis, David, Stefanos and Sara
