Kickstarter Round-Up: Old Gods RPG, Dungeon Puzzles, Mystery in NOLA, and More
Come check out this week’s batch of Kickstarter and crowdfunding highlights – including board games, TTRPGs, and indie comics.
The Mansion – STL
In this campaign you will be able to get enough scenery elements to create a 36″ x 36″ gaming table centred on a mansion and its gardens, as well as a PDF to be able to print a perfect mat for this table. It is ideal for playing super hero games like Marvel Crisis Protocol or Batman Miniature Game. But, of course, it can also be used for other miniature games or even role playing games.
Pledges start at $11 for a basic mansion.
Frankenstein the Unconquered
Frankenstein the Unconquered is a story about violence as a mode of survival, the destructive inertia of revenge, and how toxic masculinity damages individuals and the environment around them. It’s a love letter to pulpy adventure comics and films like Conan the Barbarian and Mad Max as well as Universal Horror Monsters and the literature that inspired them.
Pledges start at $5 for digital copy of issue #1.
Tricky! Fantasy Feud
Welcome to TRICKY! Fantasy Feud, a chaotic, unpredictable trick-taking game that asks you to predict it anyway. The game emphasizes surprises, tricks, and “got ya” moments to create an exciting, engaging experience each time it’s played. The game is great for new players, casual groups, and competitive players alike!
Pledges start at $20 for a copy of the game.
Dragnar’s Dungeon Puzzler

Puzzle grids, tokens and assets, digital maps, monsters, and new rules options are all included with your pledge! Dragnarr’s also comes with a series of sample puzzles to get your ideas started. With this guide you can create your own brain teasing challenges to invigorate the story and keep your players engaged.
Pledges start at $9 for a PDF.
The Dark Quarter
New Orleans, 1981 – August. The murder was brutal and archaic. A call was placed for outside help, a call no one really wanted to make. The NOPD wasn’t above begging, though. The Beaumont Agency was asked to consult on what would become the first of the Congo Murders.
The Dark Quarter is a heavily narrative digital hybrid board game with characters that are intimately connected to the story. The choices you make could result in their triumphs, deaths, or something even worse. The content found in the game is intended for a mature audience.
Pledges start at $64 for the base game with an expansion.
Old Gods of Appalachia RPG
Old Gods of Appalachia is a roleplaying game of the Green, the Dark, and things even more ancient, in which player Characters protect what’ s important and try to know the unknowable.
