In case you’ve been getting ready for Thanksgiving and Black Friday and missed the whole thing, our Dracula Dossier Kickstarter has only five days left to go! We’re into the home strait now, and only seventeen backers away from an incredible 1,000. The excitement is getting to me – the type on my F5 key is barely visible any more! Now’s a great time to go and back it if you haven’t already, as we’ve just added a raft of add-ons to the project so you can pick up some Black Friday bargains while you’re there. As well as all the Kickstarter goodies, we’ve also got the long-awaited Eyes of the Stone Thief on pre-order.
The GUMSHOE/Vancean crossover game The Gaean Reach and its companion, The Gaean Reach Gazetteer, are now available to buy as PDFs in the webstore, as is the ten-adventure Trail of Cthulhu collection Mythos Expeditions. KWAS subscribers will get the December edition, Vendetta Run, this month; meanwhile, non-subscribers can now buy Hideous Creatures: Byakhee as a stand-alone product in the shop.
