NOW CLOSED

F.A.Q.

• Translations

• Q:  Will the Adventure Chest be available in my language?
  A: Above, you can find the full list showing which partners are localizing the Adventure Chest. Clicking on the language/publisher will take you directly to the pre-order page for your language partner.
• Q: From the list above it seems the game will be published in my language, but there are no preorders. What should I do?
  A: In this case, clicking on the language/publisher listed should lead you to the website of our partner, who will be publishing the Adventure Chest in your language. Please wait until they publish more information, or contact them directly with your questions.
  Please note that we cannot guarantee there will be enough copies for everyone since the amount the publisher orders from us is always limited. Reach out to your publisher to get more info on how you can increase your chances of getting a copy.
• Q: What if my language is not on the list?
  A: That means our partner for your language has decided not to localize the Adventure Chest. However, you can still preorder the English version. Aside from the rulebook and the box, all game elements are language-independent.
• Q: What can I do if the Adventure Chest is not being localized into my language and there is no shipping option to my country?
  A: If the Adventure Chest is not available in your country, here are some options:
  Japan – Please contact [Hobby Japan]
  Brazil – Please contact [Devir]
  China – Please contact [Asmodee Asia]
  These partners may be able to secure some English copies. (Aside from the logo and rulebook, the content is language-independent.)We regret that we cannot offer shipping to these and other unlisted countries.

• Logistics and Shipping

• Q: If I don’t pre-order the “Adventure Chest”, will I be able to get it later?
  A: We are planning a single print run—unless the future demand is very high. We will produce some extras on top of the pre-order numbers, to offer the Adventure Chest also on our online store after the release—however, there is no way of telling how long will these extra supplies last. Pre-ordering is the only way to guarantee you will receive a copy.
• Q: Will I be able to purchase it at my local store or my favorite online store?
  A: Maybe. If the store purchases copies from us (CGE) directly to sell to their customers (you)! We are currently running pre-orders for retailers, too, so you can ask your store to place an order with us.
• Q: When can we expect to receive the Adventure Chest?
  A: In Q3 2025. We’re planning on starting shipping in August 2025.
• Q: What happens if I order more items together with the Adventure chest from the CGE store?
  A: Anything that you order with the Adventure Chest will be held and shipped together in one package after the Adventure Chest is released.
• Q: Is there free shipping? How is the shipping to my country? Do you ship to my country?
  A: We provide free shipping to the US, EU, and Canada for orders over $100 or €99. You can confirm the shipping rates for other countries in our online store. For countries with higher shipping costs, we recommend contacting a local distributor.
• Q: How do Canadians purchase this?
  A: We found a partner in Canada who will help us process and ship Adventure Chest orders (and, going forward, also our other games). If you live in Canada, remember that you should order Adventure Chest through our European store (not the US).‍
• Q: Will the promo cards be included?
  A: The promos are not included in this expansion. English promo cards are available for purchase on our online stores.
• Q: Is this a crowdfunding campaign?
  A: No, the game will be published regardless of the campaign’s results. The pre-orders only help us adjust our production quantities to ensure we have enough copies to satisfy your demand.

• Storage solution

• Q: Will the insert fit sleeved cards?
  A: Yes, we tested it even with higher-quality sleeves (100 microns) and they fit.
• Q: Is the insert produced in China? Is this product still made in Europe?
  A: The insert is produced by a company in the Czech Republic, and the entire production remains within Europe.
• Q: What is the insert made of?
  A: The Adventure Chest insert is made of layered PET material where the outer layer is virgin PET, and the inside layer (which makes up the majority of the insert’s mass) is made from recycled materials.
• Q: How big is the Adventure Chest box?
  A: 397 x 327 x 110 mm (or 15.6 × 12.8 × 4.3 inches). It fits snugly into a Kallax shelf. (You can see it here.)
• Q: Can we store the box vertically (upright or on its side)?
  A: We haven’t tested it ourselves yet. We are hopeful that the insert will work even if the box is put sideways but we don’t want to make any firm promises until we conduct some tests to confirm the insert’s effectiveness.
• Q: I purchased some third-party upgraded/deluxe components. Will they fit into the insert?
  A: It really depends on the kind of components that you have. We tested some upgraded compasses and coins in our office and could store a good portion of third-party deluxe tokens. In some cases, it wasn’t a full set, but based on our data, the full set of 27 coins and compasses is rarely needed, even in four-player games. Larger upgraded meeples or card row staff might be problematic to fit. Please remember that there is a large array of different components, and it’s hard to say this for every single upgraded piece.
• Q: Will the base game map board fit into the Adventure Chest alongside the new map board?
  A: Yes, all previously released Arnak content fits into the insert. There is a designated place for both maps in the Adventure Chest.

• The Twisted Paths expansion

• Q: I don’t need/want the storage solution. Can I get the “Twisted Paths” expansion separately?
  A: Yes! We plan to release “Twisted Paths” as a standalone expansion without the storage solution at a later date.
• Q: Is this the final Arnak expansion?
  A: Yes.
• Q: How big is the map board?
  A: It is 69 × 69 cm or 27.2 × 27.2 in.
• Q: Do the two new maps from Adventure Chest/Twisted Paths replace the old maps from the base game?
  A: No, the new board with two new maps is an additional option for players to choose from. It does not replace the Bird/Snake temple maps, and we expect that players will continue using both.
