Bluffing Sharks, Not-Mermaids, and More This Week on Kickstarter for D&D 5E

Gudnak

Get ready to dive deeper into the Gudnak CGU with the Marvorren, who are (canonically) not fans of being called mermaids. This big box expansion contains over 140 new cards and introduces new deck construction rules for alternate basic fighters along with 3-player mode.

We‘re excited to announce the first set of our new collectible and draftable product—Gudnak Means War. This set features over 100 collectible alternate art versions of the cards you know and love from Gudnak.

In Ruins

The castle has squatted on its hilltop for generations. Stories of why it was built, who lived there, and what it stood for have simmered in the surrounding villages for a century. No one can be sure anymore which rumors are true, but everyone knows to avoid the castle at all costs.

The occasional irreverent teenagers or passing adventurers will brave the castle’s ruined ramparts, and the stories they return with—when they return at all—are sure to leave listeners with nightmares.

Bull Shark

Bull Shark is a fast-paced card game full of bluffing, tricking, and stealing—a game where your poker face is just as important as your cards! Easy to learn but hard to master, Bull Shark will have you and your friends second-guessing every move, calling out bluffs, and setting deadly traps.

The goal? Get rid of all your cards or collect three pearls before your opponents. But be careful—every successful bluff earns you a pearl, while getting caught forces you to take the whole pile! And lurking beneath it all is the vicious Bull Shark card, a brutal trap waiting to punish whoever reveals it.

You’ll need to read your friends, call their bluffs, and deceive them before they do the same to you. Will you see through their lies, or will they bait you into a devastating mistake? Find the perfect balance of truth and bluffs to fool your friends in Bull Shark!

Beyond the Woods

From the lead designer of the award-winning Warhammer Age of Sigmar Soulbound and Broken Weave comes Beyond the Woods, a brand new campaign setting for 5th-edition Dungeons & Dragons and D&D 2024.

Discover the shadowed lands of Tír Nascath, an unforgiving dark fantasy world inspired by ancient Irish myth and legend. You and a band of unlikely allies must leave the safety of Céad Darach, the last great city, to explore ancient ruins, uncover long-forgotten magic, and face the terrifying Sluagh — a spectral legion of the accursed dead who devour anything in their path.

Beyond the Woods brings classic open-world fantasy roleplaying and exploration to 5e. It’s a hexcrawl survival game set against the backdrop of a beautiful and terrifying world inspired by Irish mythology and influenced by games like Elden Ring. The incredible core set gives players the freedom to explore the lands of Tír Nascath, hex by hex, and to customise their map as they brave fallen cities, rediscover lost villages, and uncover the secret history of this ancient and mysterious world.

Holiday Hills

Holiday Hills is the most festive Christmas board game this side of the North Pole! With one-of-a-kind gameplay featuring 3D trees, transform your table into a winter wonderland with every ornament, candy cane, string light, and dice present that you add to Jingle Bell Square.

Game delivers by Christmas this year.

Landfall

Landfall: A Beautiful, 3D Island Face-off
Hi! We’re Evan and Josh (the dorks behind other successful Kickstarter campaigns including Ransom Notes, Abducktion, and Bloomchasers) — and introducing Zach!

Landfall started with an idea from its creator, Zach: Could we make a game with endless possibilities – like chess – but that’s fun and accessible for anyone to play and learn immediately?

Landfall is a beautiful, learn-in-minutes game where you move volcanoes around a 3D island that grows as you play.
