[Back this Campaign] I’ve a feeling that Simian Circle Games won’t think too poorly of me for describing the Far Away Land RPG as odd. It’s most certainly odd. If you’re not able to watch the video right now then you have snails rising up to use lasers to defend the land from demon-like creatures. […]
She Makes Comics sets high but worthwhile Kickstarter goal
[Back this Campaign] There’s no doubt in my mind that She Makes Comics is a worthy Kickstarter. The quote at the end of the pitch video from producer Karen Green makes that clear. She says; There are a lot of women in this club and there is always room for more. The team are asking […]
Laughing now: He Who Laughs Last for Cthulhu Dark cackles a Kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] At the time this post went live; Dave Sokolowski’s He Who Laughs Last has funded on Kickstarter. The campaign asks for $3,000 and has raised more than $4,000. There’s still 25 days on the clock. Sokolowski’s game makes use of Graham Walmsley’s Cthulhu Dark rules and, in fact, comes with the complete […]
Shadows of Esteren wows Kickstarter with Tuath
One of my favourite RPGs to come to me via Kickstarter is Shadows of Esteren. There have been some really great RPGs made possible by Kickstarter but I hold up Esteren as iconic for two reasons. Firstly, this is an RPG that would probably never have left France and been made available in English without […]
Sleeping giant: Mutant Chronicles relaunches
There’s been games, miniatures and even movies but Mutant Chronicles faded. Now, Modiphius has teamed up with Paradox Entertainment to use Kickstarter to fund a return. There’s nearly £65,000 pledged, six times the funding goal and still three weeks on the clock. [Back this Campaign] Geek Native caught up with Chris Birch, publisher at Modiphius […]

They’ve asked for $4,000 and with 22 days still on the clock have raised $4,500 and counting. As the name implies this is an RPG drawn on Indian […]
$1,000,000,000 stretch goal still locked: TimeWatch RPG looks set to Kickstart
[Back this Campaign] While the comedy $1,000,000,000 stretch goal (an actual time machine) remains safely locked; Kevin Kulp’s TimeWatch looks set to fund. The Gumshoe Investigative RPG, part of Pelgrane Press’ growing collection, only asked for $4,000. As this post goes up they still have 10 days on the clock and have raised close to […]
Splutter, Bang and Kickstart: Mai Mai Miracle
Glasgow based All the Anime had an interesting start to their Kickstarter project. They announced the launch – and then, well, it didn’t happen. There was a last minute delay at Kickstarter and I’d love to know what it was. Why? This is a project to bring an animation from Japan over to the UK […]
No heroes, no villains, only hard choices: AMP – Year One
[Back this Campaign] Third Eye Games have a history of successful RPG Kickstarters. This is their 8th. AMP: Year One focuses on people who have just discovered their super powers. It’s a game about learning your limits; your power limit and your hard choice limit. Third Eye Games describe it; AMP: Year One tells the […]
Cyberpunk RPG soundtracks kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] This is a RPG campaign that gets to use the word retrofuturistic in the pitch. It’s the project by an artist called Strangelette who suggests her mind might be akin to The Addams Family taking on a 3D role-playing game. The pitch is to provide soundtracks for roleplaying games. We’re talking Shadowrun, […]
