It occurred to me today that with Links of the Week on hiatus I haven’t been posting much about Kickstarter projects that interest me. I decided to do a bit of catching up today. PURGE: Sins of Science- The 1st Real Time Strategy Card Game The Keep System for Game …
Monster Stock Art & Minis II I didn’t take advantage of Inkwell Ideas’ first Monster Stock Art & Minis Kickstarter, and I regret that sometimes. I like this project even better because it includes line art options for all monsters present. I have come to conclude that I actually tend …
Lupin the Third: The Expansion #1 I was fortunate enough that when I started delving into anime more deeply that Lupin III featured prominently (thanks Yumiko!). A board game that captures the feel and style of Lupin III? Oh yes, this would please me greatly. The rewards for this project …
Game Master’s Campaign – The Fantasy Art Kit I’ve backed art projects before. This one contains some lovely resources for top-down tokens and map elements, much better than average. I’d really like to get my hands on all of the art here, and there are some excellent pieces. If I …
The Reliquary I always like magic items, especially when they’re interesting. Swords with enhancement bonuses bore me. It appears I’m not the only one who feels this way. RKDN Studios is working on a magic items supplement, The Reliquary, for 13th Age, Pathfinder, and Savage Worlds that aims to do better …

Having had the table disturbed during a game can be immensely frustrating for tile-based games like this, and these grids are designed to prevent exactly that. Unlike another solution …
The Keep System for Game Storage and Travel Grumpy Owl Gamery’s first ‘Keep System’ project (I think I linked to it on this blog before) didn’t get funded. I think it was simply too ambitious. This looks much more realistic — still ambitious, but the goal is one-third the previous one …
PURGE: Sins of Science – The 1st Real Time Strategy Card Game I like strategic games and have been thinking about how it might be possible to implement such a thing as a card game. It looks like someone else has the same goal, so I plan to see how …
After the work I did on the node-based megadungeon, I think I’d like to take it for a test drive. I’ve wanted to try Blood & Treasure since I got my hands on it, so I think for the first pass at least that’s what we’ll do. I aim to …
It took me a couple days past the end of my weekend to finish this iteration through the megadungeon. This thing? It’s big. In total there are 107 nodes in this dungeon. Many would be mapped as single rooms, most could easily be 3-5 rooms. Many could be even more — …
