We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

What's in the wand and more about how you play Incantor

Update #5 · May 21, 2012 · 4 comments

It's been a roller coaster week with a ton of press coverage. We've been on TechCrunch, The Escapist, Pocket Gamer, Mashable and many other sites too.  We've been invited to TechCrunch Disrupt in New York this week. If you'll be there, stop by and say hello – we'll have a table in Hardware Alley.

Today's update focuses on the most common questions we've had so far.  What's in the wand, how does it work, and will I be stumbling around looking at my smartphone all the time.

Please keep your questions coming and be sure to get your friends to back us. We still have a long way to go to hit our goal. 

Thanks for your support!

      You mentioned skepticism, have you thought about possibly doing a AMA on reddit.

      Allright, then I will try and spread word about it at my Uni, who knows, maybe I can get some to pledge x3

      We ran some ads on a couple of boards and (not surprisingly) got a pretty flat/skeptical response. The best response we get is word of mouth from people that know about and believe in the game. Hoping to have some news on that front soon...

      Hm, what else could we do to spread word about Incantor? I already told my friends about it, and hey, got one or two to chip some money in.
      Shameless advertising in a few RP-boards might help? Afterall, Roleplayers are more prone to this game I think x3
