September 2026 Update!
Greetings, all you strange lovelies. We thought it was time to give you a peek behind the scenes, peeling back the crimson velvet curtain to reveal our diabolical inner workings! Dare you peek? DARE YOU?!

Chad and I are hard at work finalizing the scenarios. Some of the story beats were fighting back, but we've wrestled them into shape and are very excited about these adventures. Stories shall submit to our will! 

As we roll into October, we're kicking off our external playtesting. We figured all you beautiful backers should be the first to try them out, so we'll release them as they're ready and look for your feedback.  The first stories out the door will be Fantasy Art and The Ick

We're on schedule and jazzed about this game. We think you're gonna love it. 

As always, if you have any questions, please just send us a message, and we'll get back to you.  We're also on Discord here: https://discord.gg/fZhfcXFYh

We did it!
We are stoked at the highest levels allowable and so excited to work on this book! Thank you so much for believing in this project and creating a table of contents we can't wait to deliver! We are full of unholy gratitude.

Over the next 14 days, Backerkit will process all pledges and sort out any payment issues. We'll be providing updates and previews as we get to work, but for now the update is YEEEEEEEHAAAAWWWWW!!!

YOU LOVE DEAN!
Thanks to your support, The Dean's List has been unlocked and our table of contents has reached a perfect ten!

This is going to be so much fun. We're wrapping up the campaign by reaching for this ribbon, but you've already made our coolest nightmares come true!

One more day to go! We are so grateful. THANK YOU!

THE PRICE OF LIES - PAID!
Get ready to do some creepin' and peepin' in a haunted house!

Thanks to you, we have unlocked our stretch goal scenario, The Price of Lies! Inspired by Lyin' Vincent Price, this one has you playing scheming actors in a séance swindle gone wrong.

Spread the word and let's see if we can make this a perfect ten before the campaign ends on Tuesday!

Next up: The Dean's List

In this one, you play Scholomance students charged with demolishing a Harry Potter-esque wizarding school. Let's hit this stretch goal and wreck those Dumbledorks!!

We are so grateful. THANK YOU!

DANDELO UNLEASHED!
MEEEOOOWWWW! Thanks to you, we have unlocked our third stretch goal scenario, The Dandelo! We're psyched to share this space adventure. Can our favorite scrambled cat be saved? You decide!

We've updated the stretch goals to slake your thirst for more scenarios, and here's what's next:

The Price of Lies: Eldritch entities attack spiritualist swindlers after a séance gone wrong!

The Dean’s List: Students at the Scholomance, an academy of black magic, must eliminate the heads of a goody-goody wizarding school or face expulsion… into hell!

Help us spread the word so we can get to ten thrilling tales!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

-Chad

Stretch Goal #2: Thew Master Unlocked!


The laws of time and space no longer apply! We have unlocked our second stretch goal: Thew Master! Strange Stories: The Roleplaying Game will now come with seven adventures. But like an amorphous alien blob, we must expand ourselves. This victory opens our next stretch goal: The Dandelo, in which a group of interplanetary explorers chase the particles of a disembodied cat (you know who).

I want to thank everyone for their support. Please keep spreading the word! Chad, Graham, and I have a big 'ole pile of stories to share that we hope to transport into your mind via brain waves (but more likely in text format)! 

I'm still excited! And it is quite in the open!

How will the Become a Character pledge level work? I realize its a little early, that text and layout still are being worked on, but I am curious. I really love the art I've seen so far.
