about 2 years ago – Mon, Mar 14, 2022 at 01:23:11 AM

Dear Architects, we hope you are doing well!


There are 5 days remaining and we are excited to see where the end of the campaign will take us. 

Since our last update, you have managed to unlock two goals of the last revealed set and we are now ready to work towards our new character reveal!

New character reveal: Viola & Michele

Yesterday we had a very emotional live stream. We talked about the experience of creating Tang Garden and all the incredible moments we spent together as a team working on this game.


We wanted to commemorate the passionate work of so many by surprising Francesco Testini (the game designer of Tang Garden and co-designer for Seasons) with a very special character for the game.


Below you can find the edited version of the revealing moment with the team reactions. You are part of this too and we are thankful for that.


To see the entire stream where we also play Solstice 1vs1, click here.

Viola & Michele is our next unlock and a new set of goals is waiting for you to be revealed as soon as this character is unlocked!

Tang Garden coming to BoardGameArena!

Yesterday in our live stream we also unveiled that we are bringing Tang Garden to BoardGameArena! We interviewed the developer, Thomas Tillich, that showed us the behind-the-scenes of the intricate programming for the game. We are so excited about it!

All of you are getting Alpha access to play the module as soon as it will be ready to shape this digital game together.


Until next time, be safe and have a great weekend!


Sincerely yours,

Everyone here at Thundergryph Games

A new special reveal, live on March 11th
about 2 years ago – Mon, Mar 14, 2022 at 01:19:43 AM

We hope you are doing well!


With still 7 days to go, more than 6.000 have contributed to reaching almost 500.000 in funding for Tang Garden: Seasons! We feel excited and grateful for your support on this final chapter of Tang Garden, and we are enjoying each of the 40 stretch goals that we have been revealing along with you.


We are excited to show one more set of stretch goals that are close to our hearts.

Live stream for two different reveals!

Tomorrow, March 11th at 8:00 pm CET / 2:00 pm EST on our official Twitch channel we will be unveiling the character of this set, playing a match of Tang Garden: Seasons, and spinning some wheels to reward prizes to our backers that are following live.


With us, there will be both designers of the game: Francesco Testini and Pierpaolo Paoletti, and a special guest, Thomas Tillich, who will be talking about a great side project we are doing for Tang Garden!

Follow or tune in to our Kickstarter page when we go live to watch the stream from there.

 🧪 Experiments in the comment section 

During this stage of the campaign many questions are clear, therefore we have a smoother pace in our comment section at the moment.

Gon will be opening new threads every day with games or open discussions. We would love to hear from you! 


We have one thread ongoing about which character ability do you think the next unlocked character will have. Here are a few interesting ones!

Hanna Sadek - This character comes with an animal companion and scores for both lines of sight if they are placed perpendicularly.

Daniel - A character that allows you to replace garden tiles already in play with new ones!

Matthew Maw - The Wanderer. You may change the wanderer's facing once per turn and you may move the character orthogonally 1 space per turn in the direction where the character is facing.


Make sure to tune in from time to time to interact with us!

Talking to you again tomorrow.


Sincerely yours,

Everyone here at Thundergryph Games

Dear Architects,

We hope you are doing well.


Some good news to all of you in Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia, we have added these countries to our shipping list!


We had time to catch up with all your comments and messages and we want to give more clarity to the types of pledges. We have added this chart to the campaign and if you have any doubts, you should be able to clarify them by following the questions below.

Big Box voting

We are hearing that many of you are interested in the Big Box and would like it to be Kallax friendly. We would love to hear from you if you prefer a cube-shaped (Kallax-friendly) or a brick-shaped box (46x30x12 like shown on the campaign page).

New Stretch Goals revealed!

You just unlocked the Planthopper decoration by reaching 340.000€ in funding, and with that, you have unlocked 21 Stretch goals in 4 days, for a total of 29 unlocked!

Mysterious cat, live stream schedule, and our biggest goal yet!
about 2 years ago – Mon, Mar 07, 2022 at 08:14:20 AM

Dear Architects,


We hope you are doing well!

If you have read our FAQs you will find a question that seems to not belong there. We only want to say that it’s about time.

Live stream Schedule

We are excited to announce that we have four different live streams happening in the following days.


We won’t be sending an update when these streams go live, so make sure to create a reminder if you want to attend or visit our Kickstarter page at the time of the stream, we will broadcast there!

In all the live streams, we will be giving away a copy of Seasons and add-ons for our backers.

The biggest set of Stretch Goals!

We are so excited to announce an additional scenario for Tang Garden: Seasons! It was so inspiring working with open information and much more control over all the possibilities in the game.

Introducing the Seasonal Market scenario

We know that many of you really like to strategize and maximize every turn in Tang Garden, and this is the reason why we have created this special scenario, where you will have the opportunity to play a game with even more open information and much more control.

Each corner of the mainboard will show a different market, composed of two garden tiles and a decoration card. Players can pick and place freely and before doing so, can refresh one of the corners by paying one coin. When refreshing, you don’t replace the tile or card, but instead, you will put a new one on top of the one that was already there. A small element of memory could bring your combo game to the next level!


The Merchant character becomes part of the scenario. He will start visiting one of the corners and then will be moving to the next market in a clockwise direction after one of the two abilities is used.

  1. You can refresh the corner where the Merchant is for free
  2. If you place a tile or decoration from the corner where the merchant is, you will be collecting an additional coin.

Talking about the Merchant, the Expert character card is unlockable by reaching 1'000 followers overall in our social network channels! Visit our Social Goals section at the end of our Kickstarter page to join!


Would this set of stretch goals be the end? There is only one way to find out! Let’s goooooooo!! 

Until our next update, be safe and see you in the comment section!


Sincerely yours,

Everyone here at Thundergryph Games
