For those not in Jocu's Inner Circle, they have a new two-deck diptych delivered in a custom display case for Inner Circle members planned for release in February called Inverno. Based on what I read this is t will represent the 2022 4th Quarter and 2023 1st Quarter Inner Circle decks. The mythos is from the Cult universe. It should be good.

Anyway, if this interests you consider joining the Jocu Inner Circle.

I just finished completing CULT, so I am ready for INVERNO

Posted: **Thu Feb 02, 2023 8:50 am**

Some images to share from the Inverno project as we await the arrival of the decks

We are also working on the mockups for DRAM which is the collector's set for the Q2 and Q3 2023 period. More on this will be released to IC members next week and then public afterwards!

Let's see the tucks please.

Posted: **Thu Feb 02, 2023 2:48 pm**

I can't show you the tuck but knowing Jocu (and Boschiero&Newton), I can tell you it'll be fingerlickin' good.

Posted: **Thu Feb 02, 2023 5:01 pm**

i agree, Jocu tucks are amazing! I just don't vibe with the art inside the tuck.

Really? I'm surprised to hear that. I know we all have different preferences, but for me, Jocu has been producing the best designed cards in the industry the last 2 years.

Inverno has arrived

The box sets at least - these will be ready this week and sent off to SoCal soon, pending the Carat Cases now we've decided on the final design.

Check the IC forums for more info on this, and the standard variants will follow soon!

Thanks to everyone who supported this project! It's turned out better than we'd ever hoped!

Posted: **Sun Apr 16, 2023 7:43 pm**

Love the cute foxes. Definitely love all the details of it - like the snowflakes and such, plus the material of the box is simply compliments it! Just wow

And the fact it is integrated with the carat case is even more awesome. Great job as always to Sherman!

love your tuck designs. some of the best in the game.

Posted: **Mon Apr 17, 2023 11:47 pm**

Love these. Can't wait for these to arrive. Incredible work.

Received my subscription decks today

JEEZUMS! Three Sets?! Gawd…

This is the most confusing subscription service I've ever been a part of. I never know what's going on and what decks I'm getting. But then when they come in, I happily continue to pay the bill because they're always so beautiful.

Posted: **Wed Jun 07, 2023 8:13 am**

the white tucks are very nice looking.

We generally update via email and IG as well as here, so do be sure to check those.

INVERNO had a lot of delays but is now shipping. EU members have received theirs with Under the Moon in the past few days.

Socal is now working through Under the Moon and Inverno and expects to be finished by next weekend. You've got a big package coming so I look forward to your feedback along with all the other US members

Dram is on target for August shipment as planned. Cartamundi are going through some equipment upgrades for now so delays could happen but we have Yule and Ostara in production with them now so this will be a good test as to how the situation affects print times. I'll update on this when I can.

I want to underline to all members - we use email for most important updates so please check that from time to time. I see a lot of randomly generated email addresses and 'jocu.ancol.addy' type of emails used for the subscription. As many don't check the forums we rarely use this for the day-to-day updates so email is the bets way.

Anyway, packages incoming! Do share here when you get them and I look forward to your feedback!

Thanks for your patience

Thank you. I saw this and I see all the email updates. It still doesn't make anything less confusing for me. This subscription plan is not easy to follow. I could explain why but it will just make my head hurt. At this point, if I see a Jocu deck I like, I just email Anthony and ask him A) if I should buy it, B) if I already bought it because it's part of my subscription, or C) set a date for a KS campaign. There was briefly a 4th option, D) pay a little more to receive it but I was told that only happened because of when I joined the service.

I do agree with you it's one of the more confusing subs. There are way too many decks to keep track of and their release dates and whether they're included or extra.

Posted: **Wed Jun 07, 2023 11:38 am**

I agree as well. I kinda gave up trying to keep track and don't tend to visit the Inner Circle forum as I find that hard to follow too. The decks are awesome, so I have just resigned myself to "they come when they come". I think there are too many touchpoints. Inner Circle forum, Instagram, email, Facebook (for a while), Kickstarter, here. Too much work to keep up.

Posted: **Wed Jun 07, 2023 12:40 pm**

Jocu has their own forum and their own BackerKit-type software on their site - I imagine that saves them money too! - but yeah, a side effect of all the lore, etc. on the forum is that straight info about the decks tends to get lost in the mix

Posted: **Wed Jun 07, 2023 11:12 pm**

Here's a link with their general upcoming schedule of shipments and discussion with updates.
https://innercircle.jocu.cards/communit ... endar-2023

Posted: **Thu Jun 08, 2023 12:51 am**

That's why I go back and forth updating Jocu's deck list: on their IC Forum and here XD

Posted: **Thu Jun 08, 2023 3:45 am**

Thanks for sharing guys!

Best schedule will always be found on the forum. Unfortunately with so many members no one channel can cover everything. 30% of our members have never opened a single email, most of them loathe either Facebook or Instagram or both. 80% have never visited the forum. We do what we can, but feel free to check the site if you're ever confused

Dram onwards has a breakdown of everything when you sign up including package contents, and recent emails have all included the entire breakdown too.

Facebook group was a nice idea, thinking it was the most popular site, but it only attracted around 30% of members and then our account got hacked and we lost access to all our FB assets. Unfortunately this looks unfixable as Meta have literally no customer-facing support.

So yeah, email guys. Best form of communication for us but we're always available on IG messenger too

**

One golden rule I find myself having to continually clarify - if a deck is available on Kickstarter, it is not included in the IC package. If a deck is advertised as an IC release, it will never be available on Kickstarter.

They are two separate models. Hope that helps!

Inverno two-deck diptych set w/ carat case

Posted: **Sat Jun 24, 2023 5:17 pm**

I like that you removed the sticker seal. Really takes a way from the beauty and the art.

Boschiero & Newton continue to blow me away. Seeing the texturing up close with those standard tucks is exquisite.

Yeah, the paper stock they used is niiiice

Posted: **Sat Jun 24, 2023 9:52 pm**

I love the cards, and the tucks on the boxed set edition are phenomenal. I don't love the tucks on the standard edition though and was pretty disappointed to see that the boxed versions aren't gilded. It seems we traded gilding for the carat cases, and I would've preferred the gilding. What are everyone else's thoughts?

Posted: **Sat Jun 24, 2023 10:01 pm**

Silver gilding would have been very nice.
