“Unwritten” Myst tabletop RPG going strong on Kickstarter

October 19, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] Confession; I’ve never played the Myst computer game. I’ve never played it despite many friends being incredibly positive about it. Perhaps this Kickstarter will be a solution? InkWork Productions now have nearly $20,000 in the bank (asking for only $5,000) to fund a RPG called Unwritten: Adventures in the Ages of Myst […]

Monte Cook & Bruce Cordell team up for The Strange RPG Kickstarter

October 16, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] Monte Cook and Bruce Cordell are both professional developers, both have had success on Kickstarter and are long time friends. Amazingly, they’ve never worked on a full RPG together. This Kickstarter for a game they’re working on called The Strange is likely to change that. The Strange makes use of multiple words […]

October 15, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Will you have Fae Nightmares?

October 12, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] Fae Nightmares from Dark Smile Games feels like one of those RPG products that would have happened without Kickstarter but will be greatly improved with Kickstarter cash. They’re asking for $8,500 CAD and have raised over $3,000 CAD with three weeks to go. Given that Pinnacle are promoting the Kickstarter themselves I […]

Golem Arcana attempts a whole new board game genre

October 5, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] There’s an impressive pedigree of talent on this project. We’ve got Jordan Weisman at the helm.

Harebrained Schemes have had some serious Kickstarter success in the past. Is Golem Arcana a step […]

[Back this Campaign] It’s taken me a while to get around to watching the Kickstarter pitch for Season 3 of Adventures of the League of S.T.E.A.M. I’m glad I’ve watched it now but the campaign is in the final week. I’m glad I watched the pitch video because the quality speaks for itself. I really […]

Check out the Mazaki No Fantaji Role-Playing Game

September 21, 2013 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

[Back this Campaign] The Mazaki No Fantaji RPG has set itself an ambitious goal in Kickstarter. The cinematic game is asking for $16,000 to fund and that’s more than some of the big name publishers have done. There’s still just about two weeks left and they’ve raised $7,000. Can they do it? This will require […]
