As two asthmatics, Alex and I have pretty thoroughly turned the Drake household and Ravenchase office into a fortress of solitude while we wait for the viral storm to hit Richmond. This leaves quite a lot of time for brainstorming new and puzzling schemes. And today, our Ravenchase boxes arrived! We are currently plotting a game-in-a-box we can drop off on the front porch of interested RVA players.
The box would come packed with supplies and instructions, and will tie in bits of technology. We’re even working with an augmented reality app to design some clues! It can be played solo or by up to 6 people, so it will work with however many co-habitants are isolated alongside you.
We’re starting with a game at adult difficulty, but if people are interested we also have begun sketching out some drafts for kids and education. Supplies for the game are streaming in at a slower pace than usual, but once we are sure we will be able to secure all the game pieces, we will make the box available for pre-order.
There is a rough road ahead for all of us, and I hope Ravenchase can keep afloat long enough to see you all on the other side of the pandemic. Your interest, support, and the encouraging DMs have meant the whole world to us, and we will keep creating more as long as we are able.
If you have a cool theme concept, or just a type of game you’ve been interested in trying, please reach out! You might just see it as the next product on our page.
