WALLETS WILL NOT BE INCLUDED IN THE BOXES OR YOUR PATREON SUPPORT
We've been talking about this everywhere but want to make sure that you know as well. With our change to boxes, we have been unable to include the wallets inside of the boxes. The full explanation is on the Kickstarter page, but we will share it here as well:
We tried to get the wallets into the boxes, but if you have any of our games you probably know how finicky the wallets can be. A little heat can cause the shape to shift, forever. A big drop could cause them to split open. Smudgy or crooked printing could just sour the whole product. But since we hand assembled every single one, we were able to have an extreme level of quality control with the wallets themselves. With them going into a box, sitting in a hot truck or on a boat, and then getting moved from place to place, there were way too many unknowns (not to mention a new printer doing these for the first time and all of the complications that comes with that). So we decided to move forward without wallets in the boxes. But they are still available. You can add them as an add-on (at Kickstarter). We'll also occasionally do website drops of empty wallets when the demand is there. And yes if you get a wallet, it will fit in the box.
Without the wallets coming with every single game, we wanted to add something else special to give the classic Button Shy feel. We decided on small envelopes that will hold the game, expansion, and the rules. We’re still working out the details with the printer, but here’s what we’re expecting these to look like. They won’t be as durable as a wallet, but you could toss a handful of these into a larger box or bag and take them on the go. We may or may not be looking at options to make something official.
If you would like the EMPTY wallets for all four games, there is a secret pledge to get these all together for $5. Simply follow the link below, pledge for the reward, and get the wallet bundle for $3 less than buying them separately. We hope to bundle them to ship with your club package, so there will be no extra shipping costs later.
If you want any duplicate copies of the games, or any of the reprints, you can buy them at our website for $13 each instead of $18 retail / $15 Kickstarter prices. We will provide preorder links later.For all of the information about the games, please checkout the Kickstarter page:https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/239309591/button-shy-wallet-games-spring-2026-collection
