Kickstarter Round-Up: Dead By Daylight, Adventures in ADHD, and More
Come check out this week’s batch of Kickstarter and crowdfunding highlights – including board games, TTRPGs, and indie comics.
Mercurial
Mercurial is a card & dice-manipulation game themed on spellcrafting with combo & engine-building mechanics. Learn magical Alteration techniques to control the chaos of your elemental dice. And use these elements to combine lesser magicks into new and unknown spells. Your combined spells can either inflict ruin, restore life, or something more. Use them to perform heroic deeds, ranging from helping your allies defeat dangerous beasts, to finding a path for stranded travelers lost in the strange land of Valanyr.
Pledges start at $45 for the standard edition.
Fantasy Packs STLs
3D printable STL miniatures and terrains for RPGs, tabletop games, wargames, or other RPG needs. You will receive the digital files. These models are ideal for resin printers, but also suitable for FDM printers. Print them with and without support.
Pledges start at $11 for a pack of files.
The Herbal Journal of Cicely Longbottom
Over 100 plants, recipes, poisons, and monsters. The herbal journal is a book of over 100 plants, herbs, recipes, poisons, potions, and monsters all designed for D&D. Lovingly annotated by our fictional botanist Cicely Longbottom and illustrated by an incredible mix of hand-painted watercolors and digital drawings.
Pledges start at $25 for a digital copy.
Adventures in ADHD
There are a few different ways that we have incorporated learning into the module. Each side quest and associated NPC is specifically designed toward a single ADHD trait. This allows the players to see that trait in its entirety and think up ways to assist the NPC who is being overwhelmed by it. Plus monsters, subclasses, and more that incorporate traits.
Pledges start at $20 for a digital copy.
Dead by Daylight
In Dead by Daylight: The Board Game, a team of four resourceful Survivors face off against a single supernatural Killer in a high-stakes game of cat-and-mouse.
As one of four Survivors, explore the trial grounds and discover props. Utilize your unique perks as you work to uncover and repair generators. Repair four generators and open the exit games to escape and win! As a Killer – hunt down the survivors and place them on sacrificial hooks to summon a sinister force. With enough sacrifices, you are able to appease The Entity and win!
