Guter Tag!

It’s that time of year again where the gaming mecca braces for the impact of tens of thousands of avid game players to descend on it’s hallowed halls. I think they have beer there too.

The Canadians will also make their way there and while some will  rejoice there are those that will not. You can’t make everyone happy I guess!

In any event we are excited to go again and show 2 of our newest games there, Days of Steam and Such a Thing. You can read more about them in Our Games section of the website. Days of Steam will be 30 Euro and Such a Thing will be 12 Euro.

For those of you eager to try these games and buy them we will be in Hall 5, Booth 51

We are also going to have some demo copies of some of our upcoming titles for people to see and try, as mentioned in the Republic of Rome update, we will have the first copy off the press to show there so people have an idea of what will occupy store shelves in the near future.

Please come by and say Hello, Rik and I love to meet everyone and play a game or two!

Greetings all,

Thank you for the many emails of support from everyone. We really appreciate it.

The game is officially printing now, the plastic tray issue has been resolved, unfortunately it is now going to be a different insert due to those issues but it still looks great. This is the busiest time of the year, starting in August, for printers and so we had to be worked into a slot with that problem from the trays. So we are now fully printing. The printer also understands the necessity of this making it to North America as quickly as possible and so they are working hard to make that happen.

We have been told that the game will be done printing in about 3 weeks, for those of you coming to Essen we will have ONE copy to show, maybe two, but it will be for people to see it, not buy it, sorry. We will not be selling the game there so please don’t ask or send email to order one for pick-up. This is one that we will be flying in to show everyone what it looks like other than that, the rest are going to be shipped as normal.

That ship takes about 21 to 28 days to arrive depending on weather conditions so we are hoping to see it by the end of November, the printer has guaranteed that the first week of December is the latest on our floor in the warehouse ready for shipping to you. From there it will take about 4-6 days to ship to you via FedEx.

So, once again, we want to offer to all of you that have pre-ordered the game, the opportunity to get a full refund if you need it, no questions asked. We understand that you can’t wait forever and there have been a few that needed their return, no problem at all. Please advise me torben@valleygames.ca and I will get it back to you as promptly as I can. It will really help if you have a Paypal account and you can advise me of it (we pay all fees), then we don’t have to email back and forth.

Once again, we apologize for the delay but it’s not far now. We also thank all of you for your support and understanding in this.

Regards,

Torben Sherwood
