BackerKit FAQ

How does BackerKit crowdfunding work?

Crowdfunding is a collaborative way to bring ideas and projects to life. Project creators post their idea for a project, and backers pledge money to make the project possible. Backers get behind the scenes access and backer-only rewards, which can include exclusive products, special pricing, creative input, content, and more.

To become a backer, select a pledge level that features the reward(s) you would like to receive when the project is successfully completed and make your contribution.

All-or-nothing crowdfunding model: The creator sets a funding goal and a deadline to raise funds. If the project does not meet the goal by the deadline, backers credit cards are not charged and no money changes hands.

Crowdfunding projects can happen at various stages of the creative process. Make sure to check the estimated timeline of when rewards will be delivered. Project creators will keep you updated on the progress toward completion and delivery of your rewards.

Backing a crowdfunding campaign is not the same as purchasing an item from a store. When you back a campaign you are supporting the creation of something new. Rewards are almost always delivered, but are not guaranteed.

When will I be charged for my pledge?

Your payment method will not be charged right away. You will be charged for the amount of your pledge when the campaign ends and the project reaches its funding goal. You will not be charged if the campaign does not reach its funding goal.

What happens after the campaign is over?

The Creator will send out a survey that will ask you for more information about your pledge, your shipping information, additional items you may want to add to your pledge, and collect shipping fees if applicable.

The survey will be sent to the email address we have on file with your pledge.

Any additional payment will be charged when you complete your survey and confirm your order.

Project FAQ

What is a worldbuilding game?

Worldbuilding games are collaborative games in which you and a group of friends will use game rules to create a brand new setting. Worldbuilding games are perfect for: - creating a world for your next fantasy campaign - creating a setting for your novel, game, or other creative work - getting a fun conversation going with your fellow nerdy friends - saying "OH! I have an idea" a lot

What do you mean by "Post-Fantasy"?

A world of molten metal where society exists only on airships fueled by elemental blood. A world of wandering titans that leave warring ecosystems in their wake. A world where a theocratic regime rules a frozen sea with spellcraft stolen from unborn gods. A world that shakes off the dull colors of traditional fantasy and invites the full spectrum of your imagination. From the designer: "I love fantasy but it is steeped in specific iconography and symbolism. Post-fantasy is me asking, ‘How do we move fantasy in a new direction? Can we take both what’s beautiful and messy about it, mix it with the unexpected, and move forward?’ Every game of ALOM I have played looks nothing like the worlds of Tolkien or Gygax, but I still go, “Damn, that’s good fantasy.”

Can I use this for my next D&D campaign?

Absolutely! Using A Land Once Magic to create the world of your next fantasy campaign is a great way to give your players an unforgettable experience unlike any other game of D&D they've played.
