You Can Still Get Downcrawl 2E (and bonus items)!

Adventure Zine now available for Standalone Purchase

Downcrawl Reactions

• Youtuber "Man Alone" covered Downcrawl with an extended solo play session, calling the Downcrawl Deck the "Greatest Solo Oracle Deck Ever." (!) Thanks! This is a great stream to check out if you're curious to see how Downcrawl plays in Solo Mode. (Thanks also to Zed for bringing this stream to my attention!)
  
  
• Victor J. Merino on Bluesky posted this beautiful spread of his Downcrawl swag upon arrival:

• Fabian on DriveThruRPG said Downcrawl 2E is "Incredibly evocative, with systems that simply flow. Creating whole societies on the fly has never felt so easy," and said the rules are "a joy to use."

What's Next For Me

• I'm planning to write and release a few more Downcrawl Adventure Zines in the upcoming months! If you backed at a level that included The Hypogean Solution, and have had a chance to play it, I would love to hear your feedback on how this experimental format worked or didn't work for you, and what you'd like to see in future Adventure Zines.

• I'm hoping to put out another Crawl game late this year or early next year, followed by an official second edition of Skycrawl, which I know many of you are patiently waiting for. These will have the same revamped rules as Downcrawl 2E, but bring them to new settings with different vibes and setting-specific mechanics. I'm still considering a few different possibilities for the next setting, just waiting to see which one starts exciting me the most... 

• Finally, I've been working on a non-crawl TTRPG about what you would do with the power to create worlds. It uses a mechanic of collecting words from books and mashing them together to inspire fantastical other realms your character can visit. It's still in early stages, but I've got a working title: The Mountain Dream. It's likely going to be a solo TTRPG, but may support other play modes too. Still early days, but if you're potentially interested in being a playtester, you can sign up here to be notified when I'm ready for some feedback (probably not for another month or two).

Downcrawl Fulfillment Issues

• You should have received two separate packages if you backed for a rulebook + any non-book items, or just one package otherwise. 

• If you have received both shipments but still have missing items, or any items arrived damaged, please contact me and let me know what items are affected.

• If you're missing one or both shipments, check your email (including spam folders) for emails from BackerKit, DriveThruRPG, DriveThruCards, or PirateShip, which will have your tracking numbers. If you can find these, check the status of both of your shipments, and please include the numbers if you're contacting me with an issue.

• Another place to find the tracking number for the extras (non-book) shipment is by logging into your BackerKit survey page, clicking the "View Confirmation" button in the upper right, then looking for a "Track Your Package" section on the upper left.

• If you haven't received anything and can't find any tracking emails, try logging into BackerKit at the link above and confirm that you pledged at a level that includes physical items. (You can access digital downloads while you're there too.) If you never filled out your backer survey, when you do this you'll just see the Downcrawl logo and text reading "Your survey is closed." In this case, you missed the deadline for getting me your shipping address and paying for shipping, so I wasn't able to send your order to you at fulfillment time: reach out to me ASAP, as I can only hold onto unclaimed pledge items for a limited time.
