I posted this earlier somewhere, but according to their (former) Marketing Director who I spoke with last year, apparently at one point Tempus Fugit was by far their best selling experience. It's certainly my least favorite experience, but I guess the romantic time travel idea is super appealing or something (if only people purchasing it knew about the ending). The thing that baffles me is discontinuing King in Yellow and yet continuing to sell its sequel, Rise of the Cult, which has at least one aspect of it that requires items from King in Yellow to fully appreciate.

Maybe they discontinued those items because the artifacts are too expensive to produce?

Cast and finished resin pretty much costs the same no matter what the shape is (within certain restrictions).

Odd choice for a contest. "Hey, look at this awesome product that we used to offer, ruined, and then discontinued." See how completely awesome we used to be? Isn't this just amazing? Well, TOO BAD, SUCKERS!

I don't feel like a sucker, but that's because I can't solve puzzles and so didn't get hooked into C&C like most others here. I bought the experiences and received everything promised (except for the weird artifact for "Filigree in Shadow") so I am content with all my purchases. Is the company swirling around in the great porcelain bowl? Yes. Do I expect them to market anything in the future that I want to buy? Seems unlikely.

I enjoyed all of my experiences (bar Filigree, which I feel I way overpaid for). The C&C packages were neat, but I mainly liked the odd little ephemera that was included in them, over the puzzles themselves. It was a way that I could often get my ASMR to trigger.

It’s okay guys, they may have gotten rid of a few things but, they are starting over like a Phoenix...... , such cryptic symbolism in their new Facebook post.
