An Update

Just a quick update to let you all know where things stand with Reiver Games.

Firstly, I'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has got in contact to commiserate or show their support - thanks also to everyone who has ordered games from me since the announcement :)

So, where do things stand? At the moment Reiver Games is continuing as it always has, shipping direct orders and dealing with distributors as before. I've received several enquiries from people or companies interested in helping me close out. I've no firm offers yet, but one indicative offer and several expressions of interest.

As far as I can tell from the early information I've received these range from 'I would like to buy all you stock' to 'I would like to buy Reiver Games as a going concern complete with website, licences and possibly even your continued involvement'. I've also had some interest in re-printing my games in other languages.

Obviously, there's many a slip betwixt cup and lip, so none of these may materialise into a confirmed offer. But at this point I'm quietly hopeful.

Hiya Dennis,

Yes, I'm thinking of re-naming it Reiver Phoenix Games ;)

Cheers,

Any more updates to be had? Keen to hear how things are progressing... :)

Hiya Mal,

So there are now two confirmed offers and one tentative one. One of the confirmed offers is for a reasonable amount of stock assuming I take the tentative offer.

However, it now looks like there might be some kind of fourth offer in the offing, I'm going to investigate on Thursday next week.

Cheers,

Jack

Lol@Reiver Phoenix Games :D. Very Punny. Anyway, good to hear about those offers. I've been a fan since sampling your Sumeria game and I wish you the best of luck.
