Why Early Access?

“We're proud of our team and the work we do behind the curtain, but we also believe very strongly in learning from players to make games the best they can be – and there's no better way to do that than in Early Access. By participating in Early Access as a player, your direct feedback and your game logs help us improve everything from UX accessibility and feel to featured game modes to AI behavior by letting us know what to focus on. It's incredibly helpful for us to learn from real players discovering the game, letting us know what comes naturally and where you might struggle; your guidance helps us better target our efforts as we work towards release.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“A couple of months. We're expecting to be ready for release in early Fall.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We're working towards providing additional content, improved visuals and customizations, expanded game modes, cross-platform play, and additional systems (based on player feedback and behavior) to support improved retention and engagement.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Fully-playable, with the two starting boards available from the original Clank! board game, local play against the AI, and online support for up to four players.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Nope. Pricing will be the same during Early Access and at release.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Between in-game feedback, engagement in the Steam forums, and an active Discord (https://discord.gg/direwolfdigital - Come join us!), we've got a bunch of ways to talk to players and find out what's working for you and what might need some more iteration. So please let us know what you're thinking, talk to your fellow players about how your games are going, and let us know if you have any questions, feedback, or need help!”
