Latest Updates from Our Project:

It's Trivia Time!
26 days ago – Thu, Sep 24, 2026 at 08:30:26 AM


Today we are kicking off the Trivia Challenge! We've put together 13 questions for our backers to test their knowledge of Kobolds and Unheist related topics.

How does the Trivia Challenge work?

Each day, we will be posting a trivia question at the bottom of an update (like the first question attached to this one). Backers will have 2 days to answer the question, and then the question will be closed and the answer revealed. For each person who gets the question correct, they will have points added to their score, as well as to their teams score.

In addition to the updates, the trivia questions can also be found on the "Trivia Challenge" tab. This will let you see the current questions, as well as any questions that have been closed and scored.



When the final question is closed, we will announce our winning team! 


What if I have not yet selected a team?

If you haven't picked your team yet, you can select "Manage your pledge" at the top of the screen.


Let's see which team wins and gets bragging rights for the rest of the campaign!

Week 2 Events for Unheist
28 days ago – Tue, Sep 22, 2026 at 07:08:10 AM

It's crazy that we're already a week into the campaign for The Unheist of Hearthburn House. Thank you all so much for continued support and engagement with us! We've been having a ton of fun looking at your responses to our polls and seeing which Kobold people are getting from the personality quiz!

As we enter the second week, we have some exciting events planned!

The Most Common Kobold

So far, the Kobolds with the most votes from the quiz are Darcy at 24% and Cleo at 14%! If you haven't had the chance to take the personality quiz yet, check out our previous update.



Fantasy Trivia

As you backed our project, you may have received a request to pick a team. These serve two purposes:
  • Seeing which team of kobolds is the most popular and
  • Setting up teams for a friendly game of trivia!

We will be launching the trivia questions on Thursday, so make sure to pick your team ahead of time!
Our general theme is, of course, kobolds and dragons, with a few curveballs to keep you on your toes.

If you did not get a chance to pick your team,  you can select "Manage your pledge" at the top of the screen.


Livestream Playthrough

If you missed the first livestream, we are hosting another on Friday at 5:30pm EST. Not only will we be using an alternate rule to spice up the game, but we will have another local Pennsylvania designer joining us! If you want to see how the game plays with different people and variables thrown in, you'll definitely want to watch this livestream.

Take the Kobold Personality Test!
29 days ago – Mon, Sep 21, 2026 at 07:36:26 AM



Each of our 12 Kobolds has their own unique characteristics and style. Have you ever wondered which Kobold you are from The Unheist?

Take the personality quiz now and find out!

Once you get your result, come back to this poll and share it with us. Let us know if you got who you expected or were completely surprised by the outcome!

Kobolds found the One-Way Mirror
about 1 month ago – Sat, Sep 19, 2026 at 07:09:03 AM


We've unlocked our next stretch goal! The One-Way Mirror card will now be included in every copy of the game, adding more chaos in to the goodie deck.



The One-Way Mirror allows players to transfer the Stuff in their hands to their teammate's Kobold. This can be extremely useful if your team is separated, or to help transport heavy stuff across the board.  Use it effectively to steal the best spot out from under your opponents' noses!


Claim your Limited Edition Tokens!
about 1 month ago – Fri, Sep 18, 2026 at 11:11:23 AM

Hey everyone! We are excited to reveal our secret teased in a previous update, we have a Return Backer reward for Limited Edition "Junk" Tokens.

These tokens will be recreations of our characters from previous games reimagined into The Unheist of Hearthburn House art style. They will function as alternate art options for our beloved "Junk" token and can be played with The Unheist of Hearthburn House.



If you backed The Sheep, you will receive the Eldritch Sheep "junk" tokens:

If you backed Shuffle Dungeons, you will receive the Glass Dragon "junk" tokens:


And if you pledged to both games, you will receive both! You will automatically receive these alternate junk tokens for free in your pledge. 

Can I still get these tokens if I didn't back your previous projects?

YES! We are extending this reward to our new backers as well. Anyone who adds our previous games to their order in BackerKit will receive the corresponding tokens for free.
