## What is ArchRavels Digital?

Hook & stitch your way to the top!

It all starts pretty simple, you just want to be a bit crafty. A nice hat, comfy scarf, or a cute bear. But before you know it, you've got more yarn than you know what to do with, and new project ideas popping up daily. What better motivation to power through those WIPs than a little friendly competition?

ArchRavels, the award-winning cozy board game set in the colorful, crafty world of fiber arts, is now fully digital. Gather yarn at the bazaar, craft hats, scarves, bears, and blankets, complete Special Requests, and finish Projects before your rivals do.

CRAFT CIRCLE: A NEW CHALLENGE EVERY WEEK. Five challenges rotate every Monday, along with a fresh rival and a featured crafter type. Some weeks it's an item to make, some weeks it's how big your projects get. Clear tiers to earn CraftCred and rank up a monthly badge: bronze, silver, gold, or platinum. Leaderboards are entirely opt in, so you can chase a badge without ever appearing publicly.

STORY MODE: Climb all the way to the top. Choose your crafter, out-stitch 11 fellow Ravelers, then reach the summit where Hank the Stitchmeister waits: a crown-wearing gnome who spins his own yarn and has never lost his nook. Beat him once, and a ladder of harder red-card challenges opens all the way to 13 levels of difficulty.

PLAY YOUR WAY.
• Craft Circle: weekly challenges every Monday, with monthly badges
• Story Mode: your campaign up the ladder of rivals, all the way to Hank
• Quick Play: solo against crafty computer rivals, or pass-and-play with friends and family, up to 6 players
• Six distinct playstyles: Thrifty Shopper, Master Crafter, Color Specialist, Yarn Spinner, Maker, & Expert, each with unique boards & abilities

COZY DOESN'T MEAN CASUAL. Easy to learn, tricky to master. Manage your stash, learn new patterns, race the project list, and decide which Special Requests are worth keeping… and which to let go.

• 27 achievements to earn
• The Special Request Board: collect and curate 40+ cards
• Match records, streaks, and personal bests on your profile
• Colorblind mode + accessibility options throughout
• A lo-fi soundtrack and handcrafted art from the physical game

### 5/5 — Compliments my crocheting addiction quite well

*2026-07-29*

I am absolutely loving the digital version of one of my favorite board games! The digital version of ArchRavels is so whimsical. From the quick play option to the challenge of the story mode, the desire to out-craft your opponent is fun and satisfying. I love the sound effects during the game (if you’re not into sound effects or music, they can be toggled off) but I think they’re adorable. I am currently crafting my way to the big challenge at the end of the climb!

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-04

What's new in 1.2.0!

- Craft Circle stays in beta through the end of September! The first week went GREAT! Just wanna work out a few more bugs sooooo - Beta testers who earn any CraftCred before October will now receive the Beta Tester badge!
- Switching to another app now pauses your game. Come back and pick up right where you left off! What a concept! Whoops! :-)
- The leaderboards now explain if you aren't there yet and why. (If you play as a guest, you can register right from the board and keep your name and your scores.)
- Craft Circle tune-up: starting with the new week, THE RIVAL has a challenge on the board every single week. That means each week will have both a Featured Crafter and a Rival. The other 3 challenges will continue to rotate.
- Your name now appears right away when the app opens, and it shows your crafter name instead of your account name. (This glitch was personally VERY annoying to see all the time)
- Small fixes and polish, including a grammar slip in one challenge title. (My precious mittensss...)
- Please let us know what other changes, updates, bugs, and more ya see!

### 1.0.3 — 2026-08-18

Fixes and improvements:

Thanks to everyone who wrote in. Keep it coming.

Bug fixes from player reports:

- Fixed unreadable text on the difficulty picker before the Hank face-off (Dark text on a dark background is now dark text on a light background :-)
