Is shipping included?
No. Shipping will be calculated for each order based on its total weight.
Last updated: June 25, 2026 06:22
Do you ship worldwide?
No we do not. We ship to: the United States; the UK; Canada; the member states of the EU (plus Norway, Lichtenstein and Switzerland); Australia & New Zealand; and China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan. If you back the campaign and want your Rewards delivered in a country that we do not ship to you will be responsible for securing freight forwarding at your expense.

Will you ship “EU Friendly”?
We will ship the products into Europe to our Depot with all customs and duties prepaid. You should receive your order without having to pay any additional fees to your local government customs office. If you normally receive Kickstarter Rewards without any monies due you should not owe anything when you receive the shipment from this campaign.
Last updated: August 09, 2022 09:09
[Taxes] Is VAT included?
No. VAT will be assessed at checkout in the pledge manager.
We will ship to UK and EU+ addresses from Depots in those regions. If for some reason your locality requires you to pay a tax or fee beyond that paid when the products were imported into the UK or the EU to receive such shipments those costs must be paid by you. We cannot guarantee that there will be no such cost but we plan to use a shipment system similar to that used by most successful UK/EU friendly Kickstarters so if you have in the past received such packages without extra costs you should receive ours without those costs too.
Please read more about VAT policies in the Shipping section of the main campaign page.

[Tariffs] How will US import tariffs be calculated?
If you are having your order delivered to the United States (not Canada) you may be assessed a Tariff Surcharge in the pledge manager. It is possible that a 2nd surcharge will need to be assessed at the time of shipping if US policy has changed and the tariff due at that time is meaningfully higher than it was when you completed the original checkout of your order. Please see the Shipping section of the main campaign for more details.

[Gameplay] How is Let's Go! To France different than Let's Go! To Japan?

Last updated: May 19, 2026 09:17
[FREE Expansions] How do I qualify to get the FREE expansions?
To celebrate the extraordinary success of Let’s Go! To Japan, we’ve decided to add the Grab Your Passport expansion to every copy of the game (both Retail & Matsuri) free of charge.
For the Daytrip Expansion, you only get it for free if you back at the Festival-Goer pledge (Matsuri edition). If you have pledged at the Sightseer level, you need to purchase it as an add-on. Every copy of Matsuri Edition includes the Daytrip Expansion.

Our Pledge Manager will allow you to add multiple copies of a Reward and as many Add-Ons to your order as you wish and the shipping & handling and tax will be calculated at checkout. It is not possible to estimate the shipping due to the complexities of this process; you will need to assemble an order in the Pledge Manager to see the shipping & handling and tax costs.

Last Updated At: 06/08/26What 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.
By pledging to this project, you agree to conduct all public interactions via Kickstarter’s communications channels with this project and our team and other backers in a positive manner. Harassment, name-calling, or attempts to inject inappropriate content into the public communications channels for the project will result in the cancellation of your pledge (with a full refund) and your ejection from the campaign.
We want the communications channels for this campaign to be a friendly, positive place for our community to gather and discuss the campaign, ask questions, and provide input.
AEG reserves the right to cancel any pledge (with a full refund) at any time, for any reason. If your pledge is canceled while the campaign is ongoing, you agree not to re-pledge either under your original account or under any other account you control.
Violations of this policy will be reported to Kickstarter.
Minor cosmetic damage to the box or other packaging can occur during shipping. AEG makes reasonable efforts to ensure that the shipping containers it uses are suitable for the safe delivery of the Rewards. If you believe that your Reward has suffered more than minor cosmetic damage please contact us immediately. Keep all packaging, including outer cartons, for our inspection.
AEG will, at its sole discretion, determine if the damage constitutes other than minor cosmetic damage and/or was the result of insufficient packaging.
If we ship to the address that you provided in our Pledge Manager and the package is returned to us as undeliverable, you will pay the full cost to ship the Reward again to a revised address. If we ship the Reward to the address you provided in our Pledge Manager and the package is delivered to that address but you are unable to receive it, or you have moved and are no longer the occupant of that address and cannot otherwise retrieve the package, or if the package is lost or stolen after delivery and you wish to have the order fulfilled again, you will pay the full cost to ship the order to a revised address plus the amount of the original Reward plus Add-Ons and other upgrades on your order.
In all cases, you acknowledge that quantities are limited and AEG may not be able to ship all or part of your order more than once.
If any part of your order cannot be fulfilled for any reason, AEG will provide you with a pro-rated refund for that portion of your order.
By pledging to this project, you acknowledge that the final look, materials, and content of the rewards (and the project) are subject to change and may differ substantially from what is presented while the Kickstarter project was active. If you do not log in to our Pledge Manager and confirm your pledge within 8 weeks of our notification via email to confirm your pledge, you agree that we have fulfilled our obligations to you in full for payment or donations received. However, we may, at our discretion, refund or ship your Reward if you contact us and confirm your pledge after the 8-week window has elapsed. If you confirm your pledge within 8 weeks of our notification via email, you agree that our responsibility to you is to ship your order as entered into our Pledge Manager system, that title and risk passes to you upon delivery to a common carrier for such shipment, and you are responsible for import duties or any other duties that may be payable to the relevant tax authorities, providing correct address information and ensuring this address is deliverable by normal methods.
We regret we are unable to ship to PO Boxes.
If you do not accept these terms, please do not pledge to this project.
If you have questions or concerns about these terms & conditions please email [email protected] for further information.
