For $10 you’ll get yourself a toolkit for creating stories and running games. Here’s the pitch. [Back the Campaign] File this Kickstarter under “might as well”. They’ve 9 days on the clock and about half of the $13,000 goal to collect. This can be done. I see the attraction to the storyteller cards. I’ve not […]
Daring Comics RPG cancelled
The Kickstarter for Daring Comics RPG has been cancelled. It was only a few pledges short of success. Anna Lunsford, financial officer for Daring Entertainment, posted a notice on the site to explain the decision. In short; not enough demand. That’s interest. The kickstarter wasn’t flying; that’s true… but it did get close to passing […]
EN Publishing’s What’s O.L.D. Is N.E.W. hits Kickstarter
[Back this Campaign] EN World’s Russ Morrissey has been keeping social media followers in the loop on the development of What’s O.L.D. Is N.E.W. for months. Now the double-game is live on Kickstarter. For $10 you can have either the O.L.D. or N.E.W. PDFs. Each is a separate game. Of course, the point of the […]
Daring Comics Role-Playing Game
I like Daring Entertainment’s open and honest pitch for the Daring Comics RPG. They say things like; Keep in mind, a Kickstarter is not a product pre-order. You are pledging money that will go into actual book production so that we can get it into your hands and into retail. Which means that each Backer […]
Get to know Crone – a tabletop roleplaying card game full of witches
[Back this Campaign] You are a Crone, a wizened old witch of great power and fearsome reputation. Your magic will shake the very foundations of the earth. When Crone launched in open beta Geek Native described it as “female friendly”. I think that was right at the time. The RPG clearly puts female characters at […]
The pitch for Dragon Finn Soup
[Back this Campaign] Geek Native covers plenty of Kickstarters but computer RPGs that make it to the blog seem pretty rare. Why is that? It must be hard to pitch computer games hoping to be considered RPGs to a dyed in the wool tabletop fan. That makes Dragon Finn Soup interesting. Grimm Bros are a […]
Red Kobold wins with Blue Dungeons
[Back this Campaign] Kickstarters for gaming tiles haven’t always had an easy ride. However, with 41 days (when this post went live) still to go Red Kobold Games have raised nearly $14,000 from 220 backers beating an asking price of $9,500. Unless there’s a mass run to remove or lower pledges this project is cooking. […]
Kickstarting big-time: Mage the Ascension 20th anniversary edition
[Back this Campaign] True to form; The Onyx Path’s latest 20th-anniversary edition from the World of Darkness series is blistering a path of cash at Kickstarter. The campaign went live a few days ago, asked for $70,000 and funded pretty much straight away. At the time this blog post goes live there’s $265,766 in the […]
Tabletop Taverns: The quickest way to build a whole RPG model town
[Back this Campaign] Going three or four steps beyond the concept of paper minis for your tabletop RPG adventures is the idea of an entire tabletop town. That’s exactly what Tabletop Towns offer. The boxes are suitable for 28mm wargame or tabletop system and transform into buildings. Okay, I’ll admit it, I was a bit […]
Protect your luck: Cryptex dice vaults
Do you hate it when someone else touches your dice? Is it fair when someone grabs one of your d20s, rolls and lands a crit that might have been yours? Or do you need just a handy, pocket sized, cool looking dice holder? These photographs are of the prototype for the smallest Cryptex Dice Vaults […]
