Exciting Announcement: Upcoming Kickstarter Campaign Launch

Get Ready for Our Kickstarter Campaign!

I am thrilled to announce that in early August 2025, Castle Gardens Games will be launching its highly anticipated Kickstarter campaign! This is an exciting opportunity for our loyal supporters from East Wind Trading Company and new gamers alike to help us scale and elevate our board games to the next level. Your support will play a crucial role in enhancing the overall quality and experience of our game offerings.

What Can You Expect?

The primary goal of our campaign is to upgrade the game board fabrics through a new manufacturer. I believe that high-quality materials significantly enhance gameplay and overall enjoyment. For the new fabrics, I have partnered with a manufacturer based in the USA - Pennsylvania to be exact. This new manufacturer offers both greater value for their product and higher quality, meaning Castle Gardens Games can continue to keep prices reasonable while also having a chance at profitability. This better value for quality also allows for better fabric choices. I am currently undergoing fabric tests for several exciting plans I have for the future of my games.

Redesigned Artwork for a Fresh Look!

In addition to the fabric upgrades, I am excited to announce that the games offered in the Kickstarter will showcase newly redesigned artwork. I have been hard at work learning software, researching art history, and crafting fresh visuals that not only reflect our game themes but also resonate with our history loving community. Expect unique illustrations and vibrant designs that will breathe new life into your favorite games!

Stay tuned for previews and updates about the campaign right here on our website and through our social media channels. We want to keep you in the loop and share sneak peeks of the exciting changes ahead. We can’t wait to embark on this journey together with you, our passionate community!

I am so excited to re-launch and bring you all along on this Kickstarter journey that will be starting very soon!
