RETAILERS

We love retailers and would love to see Sauros on hobby store shelves around the world. If you run a store, please select the "Retailer" tier to pledge a $100 deposit toward a Sauros case. When the Hive Pledge Manager opens about a month or so after the conclusion of the campaign, you'll be able to verify your brick and mortar store, pay your balance, and provide your shipping address. 

If you have any questions, please send a direct message in KS or email retailers@tangerine.games.

LOCALIZATION

We are always looking for ways to bring our games to other markets and languages. If you are an international publisher and have interest in localizing Sauros, please send an email to bryan@tangerine.games. Sauros is fairly language independent with just the rulebook, score cards, and box needing translation. We are already in discussions with a few possible European partners. Would love to team up with even more!

Thank you for your support!

*Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Philippines, Singapore, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia

**Not Customs Friendly

***We do not ship to Russia, Ukraine, Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Syria, Brazil, or Turkey

VAT: 

In order to maintain compliance with EU & UK law, VAT fees will be charged after the project, within the Hive Pledge Manager. The amount collected will be based on the total value of the pledge and shipping cost according to the VAT rates of each country.

US Tariffs: 

Currently, tariffs on goods imported into the US from China are 30%. While there is a 90-day pause on the original tariff of 145%, there is no guarantee what the tariff rate will be by the time fulfillment begins. Regardless, Tangerine Games reserves the right to pass the tariff onto the backer in the Pledge Manager if necessary. (30% tariff = an additional ~$2.)

Shipping: 

Fees for each reward listed in the table above are estimates based on current rates and shipping a single game. Additional items may add to this cost. Shipping will be collected within the Pledge Manager after the conclusion of the campaign. Backers will provide their shipping address at this time as well.

Note: 

If your country is not listed above, we are unable to ship to the location or will need to provide fees closer to delivery. Please inquire via Kickstarter message for further information and to discuss options. You may also email bryan@tangerine.games.

All UpdatesUpdate #10

Production is Just About Complete!

Hello Friendly Backers!

Here's a quick update to share production of Sauros will be completed November 30 (give or take a day seeing as it's a Sunday)! We did it and we are ahead of schedule. Backers in China and nearby regions will probably receive their pledges before Christmas! Very exciting stuff.

I long for the day when air shipping becomes affordable again. We would have loved to provide such a quick delivery. But alas, the world and everything in it is expensive! 

We'll be able to provide more specific details as freight begins to move across the ocean. For those who are perhaps new to crowdfunding and overseas manufacturing, it takes about 40-55 days for the boats to travel from China to the fulfillment HUBs we use to delivery your pledges. So, there is still some time to wait but we are in the final stretch!

NEW Project Update

Before I sign off to lay down (I was at PAXU and think I came down with the "Con Crud"), I wanted to share the pre-launch page for our next title, Kaelora, is now live. Please click the "notify me" button so we can start gaining traction. We really feel this title could be our evergreen and launch us forward (only because of your support, of course).


We aren't spoiling anything, but about one week after the campaign launches we will announce a secret project related to the Kaelora world that backers can add to their pledge for a nice discount. So, the option to get two games instead of just one will be available. We think you'll enjoy both of these simple, yet strategic games in this new world!

I'll be sending out an email with more information shortly! The prototypes have come in and they look fantastic! The year 2026 is shaping up quite nicely!
