Free Print-at-Home demo of Solo Una Noche!

FantasmaWe at Cabin 21 Games want to do our part to help gamers and families through this uncertain time, which is why we’re making available a print- at-home demo version of our upcoming Kickstarter release, Solo Una Noche.

We’ve created a PDF (Download here) with everything you’ll need to play Solo Una Noche formatted to print easily on any home printer (even black and white!). The only things you’ll need to provide are a few player tokens (coins or Lego minifigs will work in a pinch), some card sleeves, and some stretchy pants if you have them.

The first page of the PDF has direction for getting it set up, and the last few pages contain the full Rule Book. If you run into any issues with the file, just let us know and we’ll help you get it figured out.

We encourage you to play through Solo Una Noche a few times and then send us your feedback (cabin21games@gmail.com). We’re still compiling our FAQ section in the rulebook and you’re our best resource for that.

We want this to be a fun gift to help you and your familia get through these tough times. All we ask for is that you consider signing up for our newsletter so we can keep you informed as we head to Kickstarter. You can also follow, like, or Share us with your friends on Twitter and Facebook.

Thank you for playing, and remember, settle it in the ring!

The Future of Solo Una Noche is Bright!

Greeting faithful friends,

First of all, huge thanks to all of you for believing in our game enough to throw some cash in the ring and back it. It means a lot to us to know we’re not the only one’s who believe we’ve got something special here.

As you surely know, this particular campaign fell short of our goal and did not fund. However, we want you to know this is not the end. The sun still shines upon Solo Una Noche, and we have not thrown in the towel by any means.

As the saying goes: “We are the gatekeepers of our own destinies, and we will have our glory day in the hot sun.”

We’re currently formulating our strategy for how best to move forward toward another campaign, and would love to invite all of you to submit any ideas or suggestions you feel would be helpful.

Nothing is set in stone yet, but here’s what we’re thinking at this point:

  1. Invite all of you to join our “street team” as Solo Una Noche evangelists helping to spread the lucha love to grow our list of potential future backers (hence this update).
  2. We will be creating a print-at-home demo version of the game for those of you who can’t wait to jump into the ring – likely within the month. Obviously this won’t be as great as the full Solo Una Noche experience, but it will allow you to get your hands on a few decks and throw some smack down on your friends while eagerly anticipating what it could be. (Make sure you sign up for our email list below so you don’t miss the link when it goes out).
  3. We’re still reaching out to podcasters, industry experts, and other board game influencers and hoping to get the game in front of as many of them as possible. The right shout-out can be a game changer, so if you know of anyone we should contact (or better yet, if you can introduce us), please let us know.
  4. Later this summer, we will be doing an amazing giveaway where one lucky S.U.N. fan will win their own personalized character standee along with a production copy of the game (assuming it funds as course). This was the highest tier pledge in our recent campaign and is valued at $350. It won’t cost you anything to enter the giveaway, and the more folks you share it with the more entries you will receive. We will also announce this through our newsletter as soon as it’s live.
  5. Finally, we are currently planning to relaunch on Kickstarter sometime around the first of next year.

We know this is a lot to keep track of for sure, so please make sure you connect with us in all the spots so you always know what’s up:

And once again, if you have suggestions in addition to what we’ve listed here, please let us know! We invite all of you to join our team as we move toward a successful funding in Round 2 or Solo Una Noche!

Thanks everyone!
Eric, Kelly, Ryan, & Steve
The Cabin21Games/Solo Una Noche Team

Solo Una Noche Update

Solo Una Noche LogoHello Wrestlers!

We have had some very exciting times! I want to give you all a brief update one how things are going and a quick look to the future.

Conventions and Game Days

What a great response! We attended several local conventions and game days and have been blessed with wonderful game plays and experiences. We ran a Mano e Mano tournament at the last game day, to great success. We look forward to more opportunities to share Solo Una Noche in the future.

Artwork

Congratulations to Ryan and his lovely wife on the birth of their son! The art for the El Pequenio Elefante deck is progressing nicely. We hope to have his deck complete in the near future.

Improvements

We are excited to say that we are developing an improvement to the Crowd Support powers of each wrestler and how they are implemented. Additionally, each wrestler now has their own unique action that they may perform with crowd support.

Moving Forward

The next steps we plan to take as we press on toward our Kickstarter launch are:

  • Color for El Tigre and Elefante decks,
  • Character art for La Fantasma Blanca,
  • Game box design for copies we will send to reviewers,
  • Begin work on our hook video for our Kickstarter page.

Be sure to follow Cabin21games on Facebook and Twitter for the most current updates.

Thank you for your time,
Eric

A Letter From The Designer

My name is Eric and I am the designer of Solo Una Noche, a luchador wrestling card game for 2-4 players.

It is my goal with Solo Una Noche to create a game that will encourage and build relationships through shared experience and time well spent together (by beating each other senseless in a pretend wrestling ring).

In the coming months, as we progress to our goal of a successful Kickstarter campaign, I plan to use these updates  in three ways:

  • To keep you up to date on our progress as we prepare to Kickstart
  • To invite you to partner with us in the development and refinement of Solo Una Noche to make it the best gaming and story telling experience we can
  • To engage with our friends, family, and gaming groups to share this game experience with us.

Finally, join us on Facebook and  Twitter for upcoming events, conventions and updates.

Thank you again and welcome to the team!

Sincerely,
Eric Wahlstrom
Designer, Cabin 21 Games
