What do I need to know if I want to play "Monstrous Detectives" with kids?
“Monstrous Detectives” has been played with kids multiple times during development (mostly 5-9 year-olds).
Depending on your kids’ readings skills, you may need to summarize the rules and look up the questions for them instead of reading them out loud together. Generally, younger children tend to do better with smaller groups, shorter games, and simpler stories.
Younger kids may also benefit from an adult to help wrap up the story once they start to lose focus.
Some kids may also enjoy drawing their monsters or scenes from the story instead of just listening and talking.
Older kids can simply play the game as it is.
Either way, the simple rules, flexible play time, and player-chosen tone and setting of “Monstrous Detectives” makes it very easy for you to adjust the game to different kids and their needs!

Was muss ich wissen, wenn ich "Detektei Monster" mit Kindern spielen will?
“Detektei Monster” wurde während der Entwicklung mehrfach mit Kindern gespielt (überwiegend 5-9 Jahre alt).
Je nach Lesefähigkeiten eurer Kinder müsst ihr die Regeln vielleicht für sie zusammenfassen und die Fragen für sie heraussuchen, anstatt sie gemeinsam laut vorzulesen. Allgemein sind kleinere Gruppen, kürzere Spielrunden und einfachere Geschichten besser für jüngere Kinder.
Jüngere Kinder brauchen vielleicht auch jemand Erwachsenes, um die Geschichte am Ende abzuschließen, wenn die Aufmerksamkeit nachlässt.
Einige Kinder haben vielleicht auch Spaß daran, ihre Monster oder Szenen aus der Geschichte zu malen, anstatt nur zuzuhören und zu reden.
Ältere Kinder und Jugendliche können das Spiel so spielen, wie es ist.
In jedem Fall machen es die einfachen Regeln, die flexible Spieldauer, und die von den Spielenden gewählte Stimmung und Spielwelt es euch wirklich leicht, das Spiel an unterschiedliche Kinder und deren Bedürfnisse anzupassen!

What is BackerKit?
BackerKit is a service that crowdfunded project creators use to keep track of hundreds to tens of thousands of backers—from shipping details, pledge levels, preferences and quantities, whether they have paid or had their card declined, special notes, and everything in between!
The BackerKit software and support team is independent from the campaign’s project team—BackerKit does not handle the actual reward shipping. For more information about the preparation or delivery status of your rewards, please check the project's updates page.
How does BackerKit work?
After the campaign ends, the project creator will send you an email with a unique link to your survey. You can check out a walkthrough of the process here.
I never received my invitation. How do I complete the survey?
The most common reasons for not receiving a survey email is that you may be checking an email inbox different from the email address you used to sign up with Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account, or it may be caught in your spam filter.
Confirm that the email address you are searching matches the email address tied to your Kickstarter, Indiegogo, or Tilt Pro account. If that doesn’t work, then try checking your spam, junk or promotions folders. You can also search for "backerkit” in your inbox.
To resend the survey to yourself, visit the project page and input the email address associated with your Kickstarter, Indiegogo or Tilt Pro account.
How do I update my shipping address?
BackerKit allows you to update your shipping address until the shipping addresses are locked by the project creator. To update your address, go back to your BackerKit survey by inputting your email here.
When will my order be shipped, charged or locked?
That is handled directly by the project creator. BackerKit functions independently of the project itself, so we do not have control of their physical shipping timeline. If you want to check on the project’s status, we recommend reading over the project's updates page.
I completed the survey, but haven't received my rewards yet. When will they arrive?
As BackerKit does not actually handle any rewards or shipping, the best way to stay updated on the shipping timeline would be to check out the project's updates page.
