Once again you have amazed us with your support, and another stretch goal has been met! We’re expanding Beasts of the Amber Archive with yet more all-new Ninth World creepies, crawlies, and, erm, fly-ies?
You also took us over what is, for us, a very meaningful milestone: when we passed $517,255, we surpassed the funding total for the original Numenera crowdfunding campaign. That was a record-smasher at the time, and more importantly led to the founding of Monte Cook Games. All of us here at MCG thank you for your support, then and now!
To celebrate this milestone, we went a bit extra on the bonus sticker, with a sticker sheet featuring multiple creatures. The voting was really close, but, as mentioned in our last update, you chose this sheet:
You Brought Us To This Point—Please Keep It Up!
Can you believe we aren’t even halfway through this campaign? How much more can we unlock? That’s up to you!
Please keep spreading the word. It’s been backers like you who have driven this campaign to so much success, and unlocked so many stretch goals. Only backer-driven word of mouth allows campaigns like this to soar!
You can find sharable posts, great topics to discuss, and graphics to grab at MCG’s social media accounts.
Stretch Goal: Iadace You Beast Solo Game!
You’ve uncovered a powerful artifact—a mechanical companion—that lets you travel the Ninth World (even if it is a bit, well… erratic). Gather necessary bits of numenera to keep yourself and your companion alive, all while exploring new places, fighting fierce creatures, and dealing with dangerous (or helpful) NPCs. And do it all by yourself. Iadace, You Beast is a solo RPG for Numenera—the first of its kind!
This game is stand-alone and comes with everything you need (except dice), but can also be used with existing Cypher and Numenera supplements, including the Calaval's Eyes! Deck, for a broader experience. It includes easy Cypher-based rules for solo play, character sheets, locations, creatures, numenera, a unique set of Calaval’s Eyes! cards, and more.
Explore solo play with your current Numenera character or create a new character to traverse the Ninth World. You can even invite players from your existing game to join you for a session or two!
Iadace, You Beast! will be available as an add-on, and added to the rewards of backers at the ALL-IN (print and PDF) and ALL-IN (PDF only) pledge levels. We’ll unlock this awesome solo game when we reach 2825 backers!
Let’s Have Another Sticker, Too!
Every time we unlock a stretch goal, we also throw in a free bonus reward for every backer, no matter your pledge level. Let’s vote for the next sticker:
