[Gamesapiens Multi Holder]

Q. Was there a particular reason for starting this project?

As the first solid wood multi holder among domestic products, we created it with the goal of making it the best product in terms of comprehensive functionality and aesthetics, aiming for a world-class luxury item from the very beginning.

Many companies make all sorts of gaming accessories, but I thought that such accessories inevitably end up being divided between pursuing cost-effectiveness or pursuing the highest luxury.

However, from a business perspective, most companies around the world choose cost-effectiveness due to management logic. This was true in the past, is true now, and will likely remain so in the future. It's only natural.

However, Gamesapiens has the mindset that we shouldn't do projects that anyone can easily undertake. That's why we've carried out several projects that ignore business rationality, and this multi holder project is one of them.

There may be a small number of game enthusiasts who want the best luxury items for their own satisfaction, even among accessories like these. But if there are no such products on the market, unless they make it themselves (which is not guaranteed to be well made), their wish will remain just a wish and never be fulfilled.

For accessories, Gamesapiens pursues projects not to seek profit, but as a comprehensive board game company, to provide a service for customers (supporters). Rather than offering generic cost-effective products that anyone can provide, we want to open up the possibility of choice for VIP users who desire the utmost care, quality, and functionality.

In other words, if you love and are passionate about a field and want to pursue something better, something superior, or the very best for your own satisfaction, but all you can find are similar products, you shouldn't have to settle by comparing minor differences. There should be a clearly superior product (though evaluations may differ by individual values, but in a universal sense) that stands out, so that if you want it, you at least have the option to choose it. (For the richness of the entire game world.)

On a personal level, as a first-generation creator who encountered, distributed, and made board games before anyone else, and who truly loves games, I sometimes boldly pursue unprofitable projects that others avoid, in order to enrich the range of choices in the board game world.

To use an analogy, you can't ask Rolls-Royce for the cost-effectiveness of a compact car, but Rolls-Royce provides a clear difference that compact cars can't match, right? Gamesapiens accessories are products with this philosophy. In other words, we do not take our customers (supporters) lightly, but aim to treat them as the highest VIPs. We strive to ensure that 'Gamesapiens accessories are products for the dignity of board gamers.' Ironically, although the price is high, the market situation is such that pursuing profit makes it impossible to carry out such projects, so it's easy to be misunderstood.

Gamesapiens, as a game maker, does not proceed with a project unless it is the best and finest product.

Some people have absurdly evaluated us as a strange company obsessed only with quality over gameplay, but in fact, gameplay is a matter of personal preference. At least when it comes to objective quality, we have a spirit of craftsmanship, which is ironically revealed in such evaluations. Of course, both gameplay and product quality should be excellent. As a game maker, subjective areas should be left to user judgment, but striving for the best in objective areas can only be interpreted as a genuine commitment to users and customers (supporters).

Because we use materials that are more than eight times more expensive than those in ordinary products, our profit margin is significantly lower and the minimum consumer price is higher, which delays market expansion and distribution. This is disadvantageous for business in many ways, and even if our hard work is wasted or fails, we believe that being able to continuously accept this is what forms the value and qualification of a luxury brand. Even if we make low-cost game products, the gameplay itself remains the same (though the user's sensory experience may differ), so some compromise is possible depending on the situation. However, since making money from accessories is not our main focus, Gamesapiens only produces the finest luxury items in necessary accessory fields for reasons such as customer (supporter) service and brand identity.

Therefore, there may not be a next round for accessory projects. This is because these are the best products for the satisfaction of a few premium VIPs, so they lack mass appeal and may all end up as inventory, which we are aware of from the start. We consider it fortunate if the first production run sells out.

Nevertheless, the reason we attempt such unreasonable projects that don't fit business logic is because of Gamesapiens' love and sincerity for the board game world. Sometimes, forward-thinking and discerning people recognize this, and each of them becomes our true customer (supporter). This is our reward. (For example, like our true fan 'Shellingford,' who visited even during our dormant period, gave us kind words, and purchased various items; we are always grateful. The affection and loyalty that made us feel sincerity are eternal.)

Q. How far along is the project, and how was the process?

Everything has been completed. The process involved the best professional craftsman selecting the finest materials, succeeding in product development after some trial and error, and producing each item by hand. The manufacturer, a premium children's furniture brand, took on this project as a special OEM for the first time. Although it was not profitable, the craftsman's spirit of wanting to provide the best product to customers (supporters) resonated, and the project proceeded smoothly. Thanks to a special connection with Gamesapiens' main illustrator of several decades, this product could finally be made.

Q. Why is this project meaningful?

1. It is meaningful as the best product with no comparable alternatives.

2. This is a 'product as a work of art' that could only be created through the collaboration of three master artisans.

3. The furniture artisan presented his best product with this one-time work, and this is an item he will not make again. It was specially produced considering good intentions and personal connections, and since it is not economically profitable, there will basically be no next time. The same goes for Game Sapiens; next time, we will proceed with a different project and a different work, not repeatedly making the same item and lowering its rarity. We are satisfied that we have created the best product in this field and fulfilled our duty to the industry and our customers (supporters). (Whether the world recognizes it or not) Just as Picasso did not paint the same picture over and over, we put our utmost effort into this one-time 'work infused with the artist's effort and dedication,' knowing there will be no next time.

4. The price is significantly higher than other products, but not so high that it is unaffordable. For the price of one or two typical Eurogames, you can get more than four of these and use them for a long time as versatile accessories in all kinds of games. The feeling of playing with an artist's work in your personal collection, and the lasting functionality and aesthetics of a superior product, will satisfy gamers or board game cafe owners who are aware of such values and seek the prestige of a premium VIP experience. Think about it. How many individual gamers will play with such items, and since only a limited quantity is available (some are reserved for Game Sapiens' own events; we cannot make more, and we won't), cafes that have adopted them and those that haven't will see a significant gap among users who have experienced them. (Accessories are the type of product that can create an absolute gap with a one-time investment at a game cafe. The highest quality accessories represent the prestige of the store and the difference in user emotional experience and convenience.) The only issue is the price; no one has ever been dissatisfied using the multi-holder. That is precisely why it holds value.

5. If you are going to use a holder anyway, I think it is better to finish with the best product from the start rather than making duplicate investments.

Q. Could you briefly introduce the project Reward?

A game artisan, an industrial design artisan, and a furniture artisan worked together to create this with their utmost effort.

Worldwide, there is currently no product that can match the convenience of the multi-holder in terms of functionality.

The same goes for aesthetics. (Not only the optimal design, but also the wood quality and its color have all been considered.)

The four rows of the multi-holder are optimized in size, length, and height difference for sorting 'cards, tiles, and coins' as you wish. After much trial and error, we arrived at the best depth and angle.

The front row can be transformed using the included maple panel to further emphasize the screen function or to enhance the stability of card stacking.

If you try other holders and then use this one, you will feel a subtle psychological comfort and focus. Even such emotional factors were considered in detail when setting the height, length, and weight. In other words, this is a 'masterpiece' that pays attention to 'emotional balancing' in various aspects based on cognitive psychology.

Q. Is there a reason why you must participate in this project?

There is no absolute reason to participate in the project. If you want to get a better product and use it well, you can do so.

This is a VIP product for those who desire a more refined game play experience.

In fact, there are not many items available, so not everyone can buy one even if they want to.

Q. Is there anything potential participants must know?

If you don't get it now, you may regret not having it when you encounter this product during your gaming life. Of course, this only applies to those who like to use holders.

<Gift / Wadiz Special Package>

1.  Game Sapiens Assembly Paper Holder KIT (Common to Rewards 1 and 2)

Lightweight + adjustable volume through assembly and disassembly = excellent portability.

Considering it is a paper product, the durability is quite good.

Like the Multi Holder, this product reflects Game Sapiens' original design and planning.

You can experience both a casual and a premium luxury feel, and we have selected this product as a basic free gift so you can use it conveniently as needed. The retail price is 3,000 KRW per piece.

2. Free Gift Perfume

In reality, it is packaged in a premium gift magnetic box.

(1) 6-piece full set image (3 natural herb scents / 3 synthetic scents)

2. Each product features a unique illustration.

3. Product description (for reference)

4. Actual product box (premium box + magnetic feature + high-quality sponge tray + anti-contamination outer box)

5. Real user reviews (purchased with their own money)

All six are premium perfumes that can rival the top niche perfumes sold at luxury shops.

If you receive the perfume, try a blind test against the top perfumes from department stores.

Once you actually use it, you'll immediately recognize its quality. ^^

However, since it is a product for export to Europe, the scent is deeper, fresher (not sweet), and lasts longer compared to the subtle and light scents preferred by Koreans. This requires more raw materials, and we used 'Woman in the City,' which is generally well-liked, as an example.

Since perfume is not the main product, I will end the explanation here.

'Game Sapiens' always strives to create the best products.

Before playing the game, create an atmosphere of comfort and focus with a clear aroma scent.

Refreshing the air in this way can be a unique and sophisticated touch for an elevated game experience.

Q. The reason for conducting a pre-order on Wadiz

Game Sapiens has several outstanding products that are considered ahead of their time.

Even when it comes to the multi-holder, the subject of this project, there is still no company today that produces such masterpieces.

To introduce these excellent products to the present, we believe Wadiz is the best platform with no other alternatives, so we decided to proceed with the project through a special pre-order arrangement.

Q. Special benefits exclusive to Wadiz

1. Special limited edition package

90 sets for 4 players and 40 additional single-player options provided = Total, limited to 400 units

(Total limited edition production: 500 units / 100 units are permanently reserved by the company for conventions, tournament events, and A/S support)

2. A dramatic 40% discount compared to actual value

3. Two types of free gifts

(1)Game Sapiens assembly paper holder KIT

(2) Luxury niche perfume worth 260,000 KRW - 1 random item from 6 types of 'Goddess' Aroma Niche Perfume

(Made with the finest ingredients, vintage)

[Game Sapiens' perspective - a bit of an over-the-top phrase ^^]

In fact, the value of the perfume is higher than the main product. The price of three 4-player sets of the main product does not even match the price of one perfume. Therefore, whether it's the main product or the perfume, one side becomes a complimentary gift, creating a happy situation. 'Game Sapiens' considers the overall dignity of gamers and wishes to share good things.

Acquire the world's finest wooden multi-holder to maximize convenience and class in gameplay, and manage your gameplay or daily life with the refreshed feeling from a top-quality aroma fragrance. This is the sentiment we pursue.

If you add the 'Game Sapiens Metal Coin = Roman Empire Metal Coin,' which boasts the highest level of product perfection, it would be the icing on the cake! The metal coin is currently available through another pre-order. There is also a perfume giveaway event for that product, so we hope you seize the opportunity while perfume stock is still available. In fact, this pre-order is a 'gift festival,' as the multi-holder is already below cost and we are even giving away perfume. Providing both small gifts and luxury perfumes is an incomparable service, but we are giving you both. ^^

[Why are we giving gifts that exceed the value of the main product? Let us explain.]

Due to the aftermath of the war in Russia, we decided not to export the remaining stock and are simply distributing it to gamers. (It's all a loss for us ㅜㅜ) Therefore, this service will end once all stock is gone. Everyone who has used Game Sapiens products acknowledges their top quality. However, the downside is the high price, but if you can get luxury goods at a better value through such a great event, how wonderful would that be? Game Sapiens is the company that first operated a community center in the industry. In other words, we were the first to approach gamers. Now, due to circumstances, we are seeking other ways. Regarding this perfume giveaway, regardless of the outcome (since we do not advertise), we will launch several projects to continue this giveaway for a while. The quantity is limited. This is a unique situation that may not happen again. Although I could distribute it elsewhere (I have already donated a significant amount to charity events to help those who suffered unexpected accidents), my heart always stays with the gamers of the game world, so I am proceeding with these events. Therefore, if this giveaway is no longer available in the future, please do not say, 'I won't pay attention to Game Sapiens anymore because they no longer give amazing gifts.' Instead, I would appreciate your generosity in thinking, 'Since I received a tribute this time, I should support Game Sapiens next time they do something nice.' ^^

[Notice of Upcoming Price Policy Change]

After this Funding, the Multi Holder will switch to a fixed price system.

From next time, pre-orders will proceed without any discounts. This event offers the lowest price.

Currently, we are offering the 33,000 KRW item for 20,000 KRW.

<Reward>

<1> Game Sapiens Multi Holder 4-Player Set - 80,000 KRW

(40% discount compared to actual value)

(1) 4 Game Sapiens Multi Holders (132,000 KRW -> 80,000 / 52,000 KRW discount)

(2) Free gift: 4 Game Sapiens Assembly Paper Holder KITs (worth 12,000 KRW)

(3) Free gift: 1 'Goddess' Nitz Parfum out of 6 types (worth 260,000 KRW)

<2> Game Sapiens Multi Holder Single Item - 20,000 KRW

(40% discount compared to actual value)

(1) 1 single 'Game Sapiens Multi Holder'

(2) Free gift: 1 Game Sapiens Assembly Paper Holder KIT

However, if you purchase 4 single items, a perfume will be provided as a free gift.

Also, if you support the above <1> 4-Player Set and additionally support single items, we will provide extra gifts not listed here, depending on whether you add 1, 2, or 3 single items.

Each stage is not cumulative.

4-Player Set + 1 item:4 Game Sapiens Assembly Paper Holder KITs provided

4-Player Set + 2 items: 1 'Relax Wow' board game industry early rare card game provided

4-player set + 3: 'Board Game Cafe in Your Hand' supports over 50 games with a single deck of 54 cards.One 'Roman Empire Playing Card' included (GameSapience Signature Game).

<3> Additional Shipping Fee for Remote Areas

If your shipping address is in a remote area, please select this option in addition.

As a small consolation for the unfairness of remote area shipping fees, we will include two sets of 'GameSapience Paper Coins' for those who select this option. Buyers with standard shipping addresses can also choose this, but since it's a product that's not really worth buying separately and is more of a small freebie, there's no need to pay for it unless you really want to. However, if you think it would be nice to have some extra, reasonably usable score chips even if they're not high quality, the price is not much, so feel free to select it if you wish.
