Dear backers,
Yesterday the designer Zong-Ger had a fun demo of Taiwan Night Market with two ambitious street food vendors on Tabletop Simulator. If you look closely, they played with the Night Market Booster expansion!
April 12, Wednesday: 21:00-22:00 Taipei Time (UCT+8) | 15:00 Berlin | 09:00 New York
Playthrough by Cardboard East
Jay from Cardboard East just uploaded a playthrough video with 3 friends. Coincidently, they also played with the Night Market Booster expansion. They were running some serious street food business as the bidding went crazy from the very first round. Check out if that early investment paid out in the end!
Night Market Booster Expansion
After reaching the funding goal, now we can spend some time showing you the first stretch goal: Night Market Booster Expansion.
In this expansion, you can see 5 columns of different rectangles and circles with interesting icons on them. These are the "boosters" you can choose from every round. They provide you with special abilities to earn extra income or bend the rules in your favor. Take the first column as an example, you can choose one of the 6 combinations of dual colors as your booster, and for the remainder of the game, whenever you build a stall of those two colors, you get $1 as a bonus. This gives players different incentives when choosing their stall colors. At the end of the day, we all have different preferences for food, isn't it?
Looks like the designer Zong-Ger has found his preference. Yum yum...
We'll talk about the other boosters in the future. Thank you and talk to you in the next Update!
Smoox, Jerry & Zong-Ger

91% FUNDED! Vegetable Stock as Add-on Now!
about 1 year ago
– Mon, Apr 10, 2023 at 01:23:43 PM
Dear backers,
We're over 91% FUNDED! Almost there! Hold on tight. Because we have decided to bring Vegetable Stock to the Add-on!
Vegetable Stock is a small economic card game designed by Zong-Ger. The first edition was published in 2019 and the 3rd edition was released in Essen SPIEL 2022. It was very popular and easily our best seller at the fair. If you haven't heard about this game, check out the video below to see why Tom Vasel gave it an 8.5 and Chris Yi a 9!
You may add up to 4 copies of Vegetable Stock to your pledge without extra shipping cost (that's 400+ grams added to the parcel!). Yes, we will absorb the additional cost for you!
If you want to put some Vegetable Stock to your pledge, simply click on the "Manage your pledge" button right below the header of the campaign page.
After choosing your pledge level, you will see Vegetable Stock in the add-on menu. ;)
Hope you are as excited as we are. Let's make Taiwan Night Market FUNDED and get some stretch goals rolling! (((o(*ﾟ▽ﾟ*)o)))

Dear 207 backers!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
Although we didn't smash through the funding goal as everyone would have hopes for, we are growing steadily towards to it!
Thank you for spreading the word, becoming a fan of Taiwan Night Market on BGG, liking the image of Nuomi's Bubble Tea stall artwork on BGG (can we make it into the hottest images on the BGG front page?), retweet our KS launch announcement, thumbing up our KS trailer video on Youtube, and doing many other actions to help promote this campaign!
There are some suggestions and inquires from backers about bumping up the pledge amount to help the campaign get funded more quickly. For example:
Provide Vegetable Stock and other small games from GG Studio as add-ons.
Increase the retailer & group order commitment pledge from $10 to a higher amount.
Add a few more keychain options or other accessaries featuring Nuomi's amazing artwork.
We're discussing these. What do you think? Are these something you would love to see happening? Let us know in the comments below. If you have other ideas, we definitely love to hear!
Speaking of the keychains, we choose Bubble Tea and Ice Cream stalls as the add-on options. Would you prefer other stalls?
April 11, Tuesday: 21:00-22:00 Taipei Time (UCT+8) | 15:00 Berlin | 09:00 New York
April 12, Wednesday: 21:00-22:00 Taipei Time (UCT+8) | 15:00 Berlin | 09:00 New York
Thank you and talk to you in the next Update!
