Supermoon Bundle (8 Full Moon Special Perks)
Victor Lugo trading card
King Cryptid's powers are at their peak on the night of a full moon -- and they're at their lowest on the night of a new moon. To highlight this fact, we'll be adding a new perk on the night of the full moon from November 2024 to June 2025. That's 8 perks in total. Conversely, on the night of a new moon, we'll be taking a perk away, sometimes that means a full moon special perk will be taken away.
Backers will be updated in the Backer Update section on Indiegogo and through Alterna's newsletters and social media outlets. Purchasing a SUPER MOON BUNDLE or a KING-SIZED CAMPAIGN SUBSCRIPTION will guarantee that you receive all 8 Full Moon Special Perks offered on the campaign.
Full Moon Calendar (perk added): 11/15; 12/15; 1/13; 2/12; 3/14; 4/12; 5/12; 6/10
New Moon Calendar (perk taken down): 12/1; 1/29; 2/27; 3/29; 4/27; 5/26; 6/25
