Project Update: More Monster of the Week!

Hey friends, we hope you're enjoying the Codex of Worlds and we wanted to let you know we've got two new expansions with even more material for Monster of the Week:



The Slayer's Survival Kitintroduces nine new Hunter playbooks and an additional nine Team playbooks! Plus it covers new flavors of Weird moves, new assets and allies, guidelines for using Big Magic and more!

The Hunter's Journal provides a toolkit to extend and enhance every playbook we've published for Monster of the Week. You'll also find new assets, new threats, and example Mysteries.

Together these two tomes of paranormal power weigh in at a mighty 600 pages! But just like Codex of Worlds, you get access to the full text of both books as soon as you back.

Plus we've got some premium gear to heighten your cryptid battles!


Detail your supernatural adventures in the Investigator's Casebook. Track modifiers, hold, and stability with our metal Hunter's Coins. And put some weight behind those +Tough rolls with our solid zinc Slayer's Dice.

The campaign is fully funded and we've already unlocked four stretch goals with a new Hunter playbook just ahead.

Don't let the Countdown Clock tick away. Supercharge your Monster of the Week sessions with the Hunter's Journal and Slayer's Survival Kit today!!

Click here to reserve your copies of these massive expansions for Monster of the Week.

PROJECT UPDATE

Project Update: Stretch Goal PDFs and POD codes now available

Just a short update to let everyone know that last Wednesday June 5th we released the codes for the PDF of Codex of Worlds: Apocrypha on DriveThruRPG as well as the at-cost Print On Demand versions of Apocrypha.

This title collects all the stretch goal material funded by the campaign and caps off our effort here.

You can access these codes at https://codexofworlds.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards or by logging in to your pledge management survey at https://codexofworlds.backerkit.com

We want to thank you for your patience. The POD version had a very minor error in the positioning of the cover but due to the turnaround of re-printing and shipping the corrected version for us to proof, it delayed the release by several weeks.

That’s been fixed and we hope you enjoy the 200+ pages of additional material for Monster of the Week and the Codex of Worlds!

Project Update: Stretch Goals RELEASED, Campaign Complete! And one more thing...

Great news: The stretch goals for the Codex of Worlds are finished and awaiting you on your BackerKit downloads page right now. There's so much material here, we've given it its own title, Codex of Worlds: Apocrypha!

The cover of Codex of Worlds: Apocrypha set against a purple monotone illustration of a cave filled with candles and bats. A cloaked figure holds up a bowl in both hands. Next to the figure is the silhouette of a table or altar where someone has been chained up.

This massive collection provides over 200 pages of additional content for The Codex of Worlds! And it's all fully illustrated. Inside you'll find: 

  • Six new Team playbooks (The Army of One, Doomed World Exiles, Back to Square One, Monster Revelations, Storied Hunter Lineage, and the Thrill-Seekers)
  • A new Hunter playbook, the Curse-Eater
  • Six additional Mysteries for the setting frameworks found in The Codex of Worlds
  • Rules for crafting quick (15-30 minute) one-shot Mysteries
  • A framework for prelude adventures. In this funnel-style system, everyday folk strive to survive their first encounter with the supernatural. Those who make it (and most won't!) have the option to go on and become full-fledged Hunters.

We know it's taken some months to get this one across the finish line but we hope you'll agree it was worth the wait. All told, this crowdfunding campaign has funded over 600 pages of new material for Monster of the Week.

You can download Codex of Worlds: Apocrypha directly from the Digital Downloads page of your Pledge Manager:  https://codexofworlds.backerkit.com/backer/digital_rewards

(If that link doesn't work for you, you can recover your Backer survey here: https://codexofworlds.backerkit.com/sign_in )

Codex of Worlds: Apocrypha delivers the last of our stretch goals and marks the complete fulfillment of this campaign. Thank you for your support and patience. There's a wealth of material here to take your Monster of the Week game to new genres and new planes. We hope you (and your players) enjoy the ride!
Includes Backer-Exclusive Content

6 months since the last update and stretch goal playbooks & mysteries not yet delivered. It's unusual for Evil hat to drop the ball like this. Can we get an update please?
