Obojima Tales From The Tall Grass is approaching $1m on Kickstarter. There are 23 days left to run, $850,000 pledged and therefore too early to count chickens, but Kicktraq’s trending says $3m. I’m confident on the $1m call.
You can see why the combination of Studio Ghibli, Legend of Zelda and 5e is luring people so successfully or track the money from the pitch page.
If you want to look at what the final Obojima Tales From The Tall Grass might be like, there are a few pages of free preview material online provided by 1985 Games to check out.
The 250+ page campaign packs an anime punch with;
- New mechanics for crafting potions
- 180 new potions and 130 new ingredients
- Eight new subclasses
- Three new races
- 50 new spells
- 60 new monsters
- 50 new magic items
- A boon system
- New features
- New fighting styles
- Eight new familiars with new mechanics
- 20 new weapons with new mechanics
- Lore on the world of Obojima
Foul magic has begun to spread across Obojima’s Eastern coastline!
The sea has turned black: the waters have begun to poison the sea life and corrupt the land. Rumors have spread amongst the spirits, but few claim to understand what’s taking place on this strange island. What we can say for sure is this corruption has bestowed unlikely creatures with dangerous abilities. It has even affected some adventurers.
Backers support the project with money or by spreading the word, and those who offer $30 in financial support will be thanked with the PDF of the game. More than 1,000 gamers have taken that route.
More than 4,000 gamers have found $60 to support the project and in return, will get the hardcover as well as the PDF of Obojima Tales From The Tall Grass.
At $85, the reward is a starter pack which includes 3x player journals and 8x exclusive Kickstarter art prints.
The core box, which adds the explorer’s box, potion deck and vending machine dice set, is the reward at $185. That’s just shy of £150.
The deluxe tier is much higher up, $290 bringing in the pin sets (1 and 2), DM screen and spell deck, and everything in the core box.
Nearly as popular as the highest tier outside retailer options is $360, which includes an exclusive sticker set, exclusive handouts, exclusive pins and the spirit dice set.
1985 Games estimate September 2024 for delivery, and worldwide shipping is supported.
