Final Week: New Stretch Goals Unlocked!
almost 2 years ago – Fri, Aug 23, 2024 at 10:07:14 AM

Hi Everyone!

We’ve entered the final week of our campaign, and the excitement is reaching new heights! Here’s a quick rundown of what’s new and what’s coming up as we approach the finish line.

$120K Stretch Goal Unlocked!

We’ve unlocked the $120K stretch goal,  and we couldn't be more excited. We will now include an entire new chapter dedicated to a brand-new pantheon of gods inspired by the '80s. Follow the god of media, expand your empire with the blessing of the god of globalization, or make a warlock pact with the literal embodiment of Greed.

We're not done yet! Two New Stretch Goals Added!

As we reach the end of the campaign, we're excited to unveil the last two stretch goals! Both of these goals will bring even more awesome content to expand the book!

$140K – Expanded Bestiary:  Get ready to face off against some totally rad adversaries! If we hit this goal, we’ll be adding a host of new creatures inspired by 80s pop culture, from neon-infused beasts to creatures straight out of your favorite movies and TV shows.

$160K – Digital Quest Decks: Perfect for those quick game nights or one-shots when you want to dive right into the action! Reaching this goal will unlock digital quest decks that provide ready-to-play adventures inspired by 80s tropes. 

Help us end with a bang!

With just a few days left, we’re calling on you to help spread the word about the campaign. Share it with your friends, gaming groups, and anyone who might be interested in joining the adventure. Every bit of support helps us reach our goals and unlock even more for all our backers.

Thanks for supporting the project, we can't wait to see how the final week goes!
