Pittsburgh is now Fight in a Box’s second home. Mark and Seppy are celebrating with all our new friendly local game stores. Last week, Mark visited Mimic’s Market, in Bloomfield and had a fantastically fashionable time playing Conquest Princess. If you’re in the area, we’d love to see you at one of our upcoming events!

We’re going to sneak in one additional convention this year. Never give up, never surrender! Pittsburgh Gaming Expo, October 3-5 features video games, board games, and TTRPGs. We’ve got a booth, and Mark and Seppy will be making new fans and getting ready for the Conquest Princess: The Fashion Menace crowdfund.
Late Backing Closing - Pledge Manager and Preorders Opening
Kaiser Cucumber & the Gangs of McChanicle Corners is our new small box game and follow-up to Mouse Cheese Cat Cucumber. In it, you play evil geniuses trying to out-do each other on the streets of McChanicle Corners. With it comes the McChanicle Corners Roleplaying Game – bring your heists to life in this RPG where one player wins! Finally, there’s also the new version of Squirrel or Die called Puppies or Poop.
It’s finally happening! Gangs of McChanicle Corners, the McChanicle Corners RPG, and Puppies or Poop are being assembled and will be on their way in late September. This means that late backing closes August 31st and pledge manager will begin immediately after. For those wanting to add Puppies to your pledge for Gangs, you should be able to do that when it switches over.
We’ll be celebrating all our progress by playing the McChanicle Corners RPG on Epic Realms on Twitch this fall. The first session is next Wednesday, August 27th at 6 Central. Join us for the heist!
We’re hoping to keep everything on Kickstarter so folks no longer need to go someplace else to get things done, but this is our first time with a new system, and we don’t want to step in it.
End of the Line
Our game of post-apocalyptic family survival is still progressing slowly. We’re excited we’ll be delivering early on Gangs, but it’s still unclear when EotL’s 2nd edition will begin manufacture.
Getting the three games in by October is a major step forward for End of the Line! We’re still working on the secret is still in the works, but we don’t want to get your hopes up. Otherwise, everything is ready, and we’re exploring places with a lower and less volatile tariff to get this beloved project to your door.
