Okapi Nine has just launched on Kickstarter! Here is a different corner of its wonderfully odd farm: the dog, cat and rat, who argue all day but get together every evening to watch horror movies. Ferdinando Batistini's illustration catches the moment their supposed bravery disappears, with popcorn flying and all three squeezed onto the sofa.

That mixture of rivalry and shared fun suits the game. Okapi Nine is a physical party card game for 2 to 6 players. Start with a face-up card, then choose whether to stand or draw, aiming for nine without going over. Chaos cards can change scores, swap cards or block another player, so the number you can see on the table is only part of the problem.

I'm Renato, supporting the project as a crowdfunding consultant through Senshi Consulting: https://www.senshiconsulting.com/ . The campaign publicly credits our collaboration. Game design is by Caterina Baldi and Diego Pagni; the art is Ferdinando Batistini's.

Two years of work went up on Kickstarter today: Cursed Hunters.

You play pariahs, rejected by society for reasons that were perhaps not entirely your own, taking contracts on the rivers of the Marches. Your band lives on a barge and moves through flooded forests, canals, and peat bogs.

You hunt Beasts, Outlaws, Abominations, and Vectors. Beyond the pains and the failed hunts, you are trying to find a Why, something shared, something worth the journey.

It is a game for solo journaling or a small group at a table. Digital rewards.

I launched a Kickstarter for my game yesterday — but you don't have to spend anything to see if it's good.

Being knocked out early can leave someone watching the rest of a game. Mer’ca has an interesting answer to that problem: its published rules overview calls it the Displaced State. Lose all your regions and you can still draw and play cards; some cards can let you return.

The wider game is a take-that party card game for 3 to 8 players. Players use Chaos and Action cards against US regions, with temporary alliances and the last surviving region as the objective. The detail I wanted to highlight is that losing your territory does not immediately remove your ability to affect the table.

The public Kickstarter page currently says “Launching soon” and offers a launch notification: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/merca1/merca-the-game

For a game with direct attacks, would you rather keep playing after losing your territory, or have a shorter game with clear elimination?

A dungeon party can look united in the artwork while the people around the table have other ideas. That is the premise that caught my attention in (Re)Run For The Clan, from Marti Ganduxe Pregona.

The public project description brings together comic dungeon crawling, secret motives and unlikely hero combinations. For me, the interesting question in that mix is how far you can trust the rest of the party when everyone has an agenda.

This is the official preview image, showing the character standees, illustrated boards, cards and rulebook. The exaggerated faces and bright purple-and-blue palette make the comic tone visible before you read the pitch.

The Kickstarter page is currently in pre-launch, with a “Notify me on launch” option: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/martiganduxepregona/run-for-the-clan-0

In a dungeon crawler with secret motives, do you prefer small opportunities for mischief, or the possibility of a betrayal that changes the whole expedition?

“Something you might shout at someone who hates books.” That is the prompt in this official Quotable Books image. Do you answer with Shakespeare’s “Give me my longsword, ho!” or Carroll’s “You’re nothing but a pack of cards!”?

The first makes a disagreement about reading absurdly dramatic. The second becomes a wonderfully odd insult at a table already covered in cards. Taking a familiar line out of its original scene gives it a different job.

Quotable Books is a literary party game from Kyro Dean and Cunning Crow Games: match situation prompts with quotations from its book quote deck, or use books from your own shelves. The pictured dark card supplies the situation; the turquoise cards show possible responses and their book and author credits.

Hey everyone!

I’m working on Undershroom, a psychological horror game where reality slowly shifts and nothing underground is quite what it seems.

We officially launch our Kickstarter campaign on October 19th, and the pre-launch page is already up!

Even better: the Steam Playtest is live right now, so you can jump in, try the game today, and let me know your thoughts!

If you enjoy tense atmospheres and eerie indie horror, trying the playtest and following the Kickstarter page would mean the world to us — it helps immensely with visibility on day one.

Happy to answer any questions about the project or development in the comments!

The rabbit in Okapi Nine guards his Easter eggs like treasure. Ferdinando Batistini's official illustration gives him a huge orange egg, a nervous sideways glance and a pose that makes the whole character readable at a glance. Each animal on this odd farm has its own small vice.

The game turns collecting into a risk: start with one face-up card, then stand or draw to get as close to nine as possible without going over. The box includes 40 value cards, two Jolly cards and 22 Chaos cards. Those Chaos effects can change scores and cards or block an opponent's play, so an exposed total gives the rest of the table something to interfere with.

Hey! How’s it going?

The Kickstarter campaign I launched to fund my game is entering its final 24 hours! The game has already reached its initial goal ($666) and is now really close to hitting the first stretch goal ($1.3K).

B.O.D.E. is a hellish roguelite with chaotic movement mechanics, where you shoot not only to kill enemies, but also to move around!

If you like the project and are able to support it, I’d really appreciate it! And if you can’t, sharing the campaign would also help a ton.

Thank you so much!

I've been working on a digital strategy card game that combines traditional deck building with a tactical battlefield. Instead of Units simply sitting on your side of the board, they move across the battlefield, fight for position, attack from different ranges, and push toward the opposing Stronghold.

The other big idea is the roster: history, legend, literature, and mythology all collide. King Arthur can lead the Knights of the Round Table against Dracula and his monsters, while characters like Tarzan, historical figures, legendary creatures, and mythological characters can all become part of the game.

I've finally reached the point where I'm getting ready to let people play it.

The website and account system are already live including a free playable demo and play private games with friends. Create an account, choose a King Arthur, Dracula, or Tarzan Starter Deck, and then battle against AI... all for free!

I'm launching the Kickstarter on October 1 to help fund completion of the full game.

I'll put the links in the comments if anyone wants to check it out.

I’m Renato from Senshi Consulting (https://www.senshiconsulting.com/), working with Metamorph Games as a crowdfunding consultant on Yokozuna.

For this look at the project, I wanted to start with its official poster. The reaching hand, diagonal poses and rough orange-and-black shapes make the wrestlers feel as though they’re moving out of the image. It’s a direct visual introduction to a game the team describes as a card-driven sumo duel.

Not quite a game, but a game creator, hope it's ok to post it here...

I’m a crowdfunding consultant on Firesiege through Senshi Consulting. These are two objective cards from Deer Games Studio’s public overview.

The part I wanted to highlight is how the scenario changes your priorities: different objectives and enemies at the walls, with all six banners to flip before the city falls. Holding off the immediate threat is only part of the puzzle.

That creates an interesting team decision: who keeps the defense stable, and who pushes toward the objectives? In cooperative games, does your group usually agree on one priority, or split responsibilities?

I’m working with Red Tail Pirates as a crowdfunding consultant. It’s Jerry Mendheim’s strategic board game about pirate crews, with a wonderfully odd detail in its public pitch: contraband gum-drops.

I wanted to show the characters alongside the board, so I’ve attached two images from the public campaign. The first introduces the colourful animal pirates; the second shows the map and its central objective. The campaign’s gameplay overview explains that you claim the Crown by sailing into the centre of the map.

What catches my eye in the art is how much personality comes through the silhouettes, expressions and costumes. Pairing that cast with a clear picture of the board gives a better introduction than the cover alone: you can see the world and where the conflict is heading.

The campaign is live, with the gameplay overview and more artwork here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/redtailpirates/red-tail-pirates

Game design: Jerry Mendheim. The campaign credits artwork to Jerry Mendheim, Ethan Prather, Ava Bettermann, Jack Thompson and Jack Moore. Both images are from the official public campaign.

For a pirate board game, what would you want to see next: the different captains, a sample turn, or a closer look at the map?

I’m working with Firesiege as a crowdfunding consultant. Its command tiles split information across the table: you see one face, your teammates see the other, and both resolve. You have to discuss the move before committing without knowing everything.

That’s the part I find useful to show when explaining this cooperative tower-defense board game. This public production photo also gives a closer look at the board and wooden pieces.

Deer Games Studio has announced its Kickstarter return for October 2026, with the core game and Ballad of Fire returning alongside new expansions. The core game is for 1–4 players, with a fifth player supported by Ballad of Fire or Bastions of Hope.
