Kickstarter Highlights: Sherlock Holmes Takes on Cthulhu & More
Come check out this week’s batch of crowdfunding and Kickstarter highlights – including board games, TTRPGs, and dice!
Knives Out – Mörk Borg
Knives Out is a zine designed by Greyson Yandt for MÖRK BORG that features way too many knives, a side of rapiers and fencing rules, a seedy tavern (called the Rouge Rogue) that’s home to an underground enclave of rogues. Plus a handful of jobs that should be done with discretion, a detective class that doesn’t believe in luck or fate, and a huge heist (written by Tessa Lyne of Sailing Fox Press) to steal the crown of a time-lost mad king! And more.
Pledges start at $5 for a PDF.
Arbiter Miniatures: The Orc Horde – 3D Print
Do you have a 3d printer? Do you love to print badass miniatures but hate the process of removing supports? Look no further! Here’s your chance to get a full set of easy to print, epic quality figurines, specially made to be printable without supports no matter if you use resin or fdm printing!
The Ork Horde is a Kickstarter project for epic, high-quality models – ready to be 3d-printed as miniatures for your gaming tabletop or large printed collectibles.
Pledges start at $28 for a core set.
Notorious – Solo RPG
Notorious is a sci-fi tabletop roleplaying game for one player.
Play to tell stories of the Nomads; notorious bounty hunters who strike fear among the scum and villainy of the universe and follow the dubious code of the Nomad’s Guild. In the midst of an intergalactic war, you’ll take on a lucrative contract from one of six factions. The job is simple: bring the target back, dead or alive—no disintegrations.
Pledges start at $7 for a PDF.
Primordial Secrets
Before the birth of time itself great god-like beings called Primordials held court in the great void. Take your seat among this eldritch pantheon as they dance, scheme, create and devour. The unborn universe shall be yours alone to mold.
Secret Action Selection, simultaneous play, big reveals, and multiple paths to victory elevate this interactive deck building game into something more… cosmic. Fans of classic deck-builder games will be right at home with this new entry in the genre, but Primordial Secrets is much more.
Pledges start at $39 for the base game.
Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened 🇺🇦

Developed in Ukraine during the Russian invasion.
