Kickstarter Highlights: ‘The Hidden Isle’ Tarot TTRPG, SwapMinis STLs, ‘Miniature Painting Made Easy’, and More
Come check out this week’s batch of crowdfunding and Kickstarter highlights–including RPGs and STLs!
Pocket Sci-Fi: A Cyborg Adventure
As a cyborg wrongly imprisoned on a remote planet ruled by ruthless alien beings, you’re flung into chaos as your cell door mysteriously swings open. Starting with little more than meat fists and electronic wits, level up and fight for your freedom from this hellish world.
The game is a solo experience with plans for future 2-player gameplay. It comes in two modes, Casual and Missions. The Casual mode is a 15-20 minute dungeon crawler that introduces players to the basic game mechanics. Mechanics include: dice rolling, push your luck, and Melding and Splaying.
Miniature Painting Made Easy
You may have always wanted to paint the miniatures from your board games but you don’t know where to start or play your roleplaying campaign with painted figures. Or you might have amassed an almost concerning amount of wargaming armies and you can not seem to find a way to contain the gray tide with some paint.
No worries! We are here for you! Miniature Painting Made Easy is a collection of three books designed by the best painters in the world to help you get your minis painted to a standard you can be proud of in a reasonable amount of time.
Deep Rock Galactic Expansions
Get ready miners! It’s time to suit up and explore new deadly biomes. If you make it out in one piece, retire to the space rig to plan larger assignments and earn unique upgrades.
Note: Pledges include the ability to pick up the core game.
In Deep Rock Galactic: The Board Game players take the roles of up to four dwarf miners in space: the Scout, the Engineer, the Gunner, and the Driller. Players must work together to mine precious minerals deep below the surface of a hostile planet where indigenous insectoid predators — the Glyphids — await, aggressively defending their caves against the intruders. Will your team be able to meet the mineral quota set by the company, or will you all end up as dinner for the Glyphids?
SwapMini 2.0 Modular Miniatures – STL
As you may already know, Swapminis are modular, which means that each character is composed of multiple interchangeable parts. In addition, they are magnetic, with pre-made holes for 3mm x 1mm magnets (we recommend N52 neodymium magnets).
You can change the hands and heads of these minis, and we’ve taken things even further. Swapminis also allow you to swap out backs, chests, legs, and shoulders and come with both a display base and a game base. Plus, we offer additional items to add to the bases!
The Hidden Isle – RPG
