Hello fellow adventurers,

Today we are excited to share another extended preview of Mythological Items, now live on Kickstarter!

This is our new D&D 5E and 2024-compatible manual dedicated entirely to magic items inspired by myths, legends, and ancient stories from around the world.

Inside the book, you will find 300+ mythological magic items, including weapons, armor, wondrous items, and scaling items designed to grow alongside your characters and campaigns.

Our goal with Mythological Items is to create more than a simple collection of treasure. Each item is designed to feel like part of a myth: something that can serve as a reward, a quest hook, or even the center of an entire adventure.

The book includes items inspired by many different mythological traditions, including Greek, Norse, Egyptian, Asian, American, Roman, Mesopotamian, African, and other mythologies from across the world. Whether you want divine weapons, cursed artifacts, heroic relics, monster-themed treasures, or legendary items tied to ancient stories, this book is built to bring myth directly to your table.

The Kickstarter page includes a full presentation of the project, several previews, and a free 30-page PDF preview showing a sample of the content from the book.

You can also find many of our other manuals in PDF and high-quality print editions, with special prices currently available both for Mythological Items and for all our other releases.

You can visit the Kickstarter page here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/mythoschronicles/300-mythological-items-for-5e-and-2024

Thank you again for your support. We hope to see you on our journey!

Headway! A Canadian designed boardgame!

1 Upvotes

My friend has recently launched his second Kickstarter for his new boardgame

Headway is a blast and super quick to learn and play.

It won the Canadian Game Design Award at Fallon 2026. You've probably seen him as he's been doing his rounds at all the local Alberta boardgame conventions.

If you're not a fan of boardgames at least check out the campaign trailer, a lot of work clearly went into it!

Baseball Shuffle: flick dice across the diamond in an unplugged baseball and shuffleboard mashup

1 Upvotes

Instead of rolling for a hit, you flick the dice across the field. Baseball Shuffle combines baseball and shuffleboard in a physical tabletop game, with drinks becoming part of the playing environment in some editions.

Disclosure: I am Renato from Senshi Consulting, supporting the campaign. The game is by Dan Winger, founder of Unplugged Arcade and a former LEGO Master Designer.

The campaign offers different ways to bring it home: Sandlot Field and Home Field tabletop editions, plus the Classic Field game table. They have different sizes, materials and included features, so the comparison on the project page matters. An accessories-only pledge is not the full game.

The campaign is funded and remains open until November 2 (November 1 in US time zones). The page includes gameplay videos showing the dice flicks, field and scoring, alongside rewards and delivery estimates. Shipping availability and costs depend on the edition and destination.

For people who enjoy dexterity games, the videos are a better introduction than a list of components: you can see how aiming and landing the dice create the baseball action.

Quotable Books: turn the book on your shelf into your hand in a party game

1 Upvotes

Your book club does not need to agree on a favourite novel to play together. In Quotable Books, everybody can bring a different book and use its lines to answer the same prompt.

Disclosure: I am Renato from Senshi Consulting, supporting the campaign marketing. Quotable Books is a party game by Cunning Crow Games. A judge draws a prompt; the other players answer with a quote from the included cards or a line found in their own book, read it aloud, and try to win the round.

You can play entirely from the quote deck, entirely with your own books, or mix both. The Plot Twist cards add performance challenges for tie-breaks. The campaign has also unlocked extra quote cards and blanks for adding your own material; expansion packs are separate options, so check the selected reward contents.

The campaign is funded and remains open until October 29 US time (October 30 in the UAE). The page includes card examples, rules, rewards and shipping information. Shipping is collected later through the pledge manager.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/quotable/quotable-the-party-game-for-book-lovers

If you want an idea of the experience, think less about literary trivia and more about giving a familiar sentence a completely unexpected context.

Firesiege returns: defend a citadel in a tower defence board game with new expansions

1 Upvotes

The walls are under pressure, your allies need a plan, and the siege will not break itself. Firesiege brings tower defence to the tabletop: defend your citadel, rally allies and confront bosses as you try to survive the attack.

Disclosure: I am Renato from Senshi Consulting, supporting Deer Games Studio on the campaign. This Kickstarter brings back the core game in a second printing, alongside new expansions including Creeping Horrors and Bastions of Hope.

There are separate reward options for new players and returning owners. The Returning pledge contains the two new expansions and requires the core game, so it is worth checking the contents before choosing a tier. The campaign page also links a rulebook, Tabletop Simulator material and playthroughs for anyone who wants a closer look at how the game works.

The Kickstarter is funded and remains open until October 27. Shipping, taxes and any applicable tariffs are collected after the campaign.
