The savanna stirs

Every good night with friends has a moment where someone leans in and says the thing you didn’t see coming. Hoof & Claw is built around that moment — and then it does it to you, over and over, until the sun comes up.

It’s a board game paired with a companion app that runs the table for you: it deals the secret roles, keeps the phases moving, and resolves the night while you do the only thing that matters — read the faces around you and decide who to trust.

What this dev log is

This is where we’ll share the journey to Kickstarter: art drops, design notes, playtest stories, and the occasional confession about a mechanic we had to throw out. No rules spoilers, no homework — just the making-of.

If you want the updates in your inbox (and an early seat when we launch), the waitlist is the place to be.

What’s next

• Finishing the illustrated faction reveals.
• A first look at the companion app in motion.
• Opening the waitlist for early-backer perks.

Welcome to the savanna. Trust no one. 🦓
