The eldritch bundle



We are going to tell a story together. The story of a lone individual stumbling upon clues to a terrible evil. At first they dismiss it, but piece by piece a picture emerges, until suddenly it becomes impossible to deny. They plunge into shadow, they recoil in horror, but it is already too late. The horrifying truth is laid bare and they are consumed by darkness.

Lovecraftesque is a GMless tabletop game that  creates a compelling cosmic horror tale in a single session of play. You tell the story of a lone Witness at the mercy of strange and terrifying events. The game creates a slow-building mystery, culminating in a climactic scene of worldview-destroying horror.

  • You create your own monsters and mystery that feel like something out of Lovecraft’s notebook.
  • All the players contribute clues to surprise and creep each other out.
  • The rules ensure that the story flows seamlessly, as if an invisible GM were guiding it.
  • There won’t be any Mi-Go or Deep Ones: you’ll get a completely fresh take on the genre.

LOVECRAFTESQUE IS A TTRPG FOR 1-5 PEOPLE AND TAKES 2-3 HOURS TO PLAY.

Includes products worth a combined total of £98 ($130), meaning you save £23 (23%):

Last Fleet

The last of humanity are fleeing across space, pursued by the implacable inhuman adversary that destroyed their civilisation. They’re outnumbered and outgunned. Supplies are running low. The actions of a brave few could be all that stands between humanity and extinction.

Welcome to the Last Fleet.

Marines fight off a boarding party of the alien Corax


Last Fleet is a PBTA tabletop roleplaying game where you play brave pilots, officers, engineers, politicians and journalists struggling to hold the human race – and themselves – together under unbelievable pressure. The game focuses on action, intrigue and drama in this high-stakes situation. You’ll fight space battles, search for enemy infiltrators, tackle supply shortages and navigate faction politics. You’ll strive against your own self-doubt and sometimes crack under the stress.

The game provides support to create your own evocative setting, or you can play out of the box as the survivors of the Interplanetary Commonwealth. This fractious alliance of planets was wiped out by the Corax – an extradimensional fungus network that dwells in the tenebrium, the same medium that FTL ships travel through. The Corax attack through spatial rifts, launching spore ships to harry the fleet. Victims are paralysed and have their genetic and neural patterns harvested: everything you know, the Corax now know. And worse, your former friends may see you again, reincarnated as a Corax avatar.

Last Fleet: Desperate Measures

Desperate Measures is a short supplement for Last Fleet which combines a quick-play scenario with a pack of planets, ships and other bits that you can drop into your campaign.

The scenario is written with convention/one-shot play in mind, but could easily be used to kick off a campaign, and with some light customisation could be introduced during an existing campaign.

What remains of the human fleet


Flotsam: Adrift Amongst the Stars

Flotsam: Adrift Amongst the Stars is a roleplaying game about outcasts, renegades and misfits living in the belly of a space station, in the shadow of a more prosperous society. You play through their everyday lives, interpersonal relationships and small-scale drama in the Below, a dangerous world where poverty, social strife and gang conflict sit side-by-side with alien technology and supernatural weirdness.

Imagine the Belters of the Expanse watching as Earth and Mars shape their lives, the civilians in Battlestar Galactica living with the decisions made by the military and the folk of Downbelow in Babylon 5, abandoned to destitution and squalor by those who built the station. This game is about characters like that.

A heated negotiation between rival gangs.

The game is GMless and diceless, with rules that point your characters at each other and bring their relationships into sharp focus. They help you create a rich setting, flawed characters, and charged relationships which develop over time. You’ll watch your characters evolve and change before your eyes. It’s really cool.

FLOTSAM IS A GAME FOR 3-5 PEOPLE AND TAKES 3-4 HOURS TO PLAY.

Worshippers at a shrine, watched over by the spirit of their deity

Bite Marks

Maybe you were born this way, and raised as a wild creature. Maybe something bit you and you woke up with an itch at the base of your spine. Maybe your Change came on unexpected and violent, and you had to run away from home. Whatever the reason, whatever joy or trauma: you are home now. You are in the Pack.

This is a game about being a werewolf, in a Pack. The Pack is a deeply intimate and close family; like a family, sometimes it is full of love and happiness and sometimes it is brutal and dysfunctional. But love it or hate it, you can’t ignore it – it will shape you. Fearless Alpha, dedicated foot soldier, pacifist scholar or rebellious cub – your relationship with the Pack is the cornerstone of who and what you are.

The pack pick up a scent


In Bite Marks you’ll uncover the story of the Pack, exploring the relationships between Packmates, drawing out their loves, rivalries and betrayals. What are the cracks that could shatter the Pack and drown you in hate, and how much stress can those pressure points take before they explode?

Outside the Pack is a threatening world of violence waiting to rain down upon you: werewolf hunters, rival Packs – even a human with a smartphone and an instagram account could all mean a bloody end for you. The Pack will face powerful threats, forcing the Packmates to choose where they fight and die; the cycle of fractures which threaten to destroy the Pack and the inescapable pull of the Pack-family dynamic is the core of the game.

This is a game about struggling with the beast inside, deciding when you will fight, protect, murder, or mutilate – whether you do these things because you love the feral life or as a sacrifice to save the family you are bound to. What does it feel like to be a part of that family?

The Howl performs a ritual


Wreck This Deck


My name is Jackie Farley, my True Name is Jax and I’m a Deck Runner.

If you are reading this then I guess you want to run a Deck too. I can tell you what I know, give you a head start and maybe keep your soul intact. I don’t know everything. But better you learn it from me and not some corporate-branded social account, that’ll just get you killed.

Wreck This Deck is a dark urban fantasy game of solo journaling, demon summoning and deck crafting. Summon and bind demons into your Demon Deck, defacing the cards as you go. Demon summoning is dangerous and you’re bound to get into some sticky situations as you play but it’s nothing you can’t handle – right?

Sample wrecked cards from the author's deck

In Wreck This Deck you will:

  • Delve into dark knowledge and live life on the edge as a demon-summoning deck runner.
  • Bind demons into your haunted deck, wielding their strength for yourself.
  • Modify playing cards, creating a personalized deck spattered with paint, blood and sigils.
  • Unleash the power of your demon deck to fight corporations, right injustice and protect your community.

Why are there two versions of each bundle?

Each bundle has a US and rest of world (ROW) version. The reason is, we are aiming to ship to US customers from our US stock, and everyone else from our UK stock. This works out cheaper for all customers, since shipping in and out of the US is relatively expensive.

Please pick the version of your chosen bundle that fits your location.

You may also notice that some add-ons are only available to backers in specific locations. This is because those items are only in stock in that warehouse. If there's something you want that isn't available locally, let us know and we'll see if we can work something out.

Shipping, taxes and tariffs

Shipping will be calculated and charged after the campaign has closed. Sample shipping rates are shown below.

Everything we are offering in this campaign is in stock and ready to ship. Once you have provided your shipping details via Backerkit pledge manager, shipping can commence immediately.

Nevertheless we cannot guarantee products will arrive before Christmas as this is subject to local shipping times. In particular, outside the UK and US, we are unlikely to hit the last shipping date for Christmas delivery.

US shipping and tariffs

US customers will receive their items by USPS from a US warehouse, and there will therefore be no tariffs to pay.

Other (add-on) items may not be in stock in the US. Where this is the case it will be noted in the product description. Such items will be shipped separately from the UK using a Royal Mail service that we understand will not incur any tariffs; however given the changing situation and the vagaries of customs, we cannot completely guarantee that no tariffs will be charged.

UK and other non-US shipping and EU taxes

Non-US customers, including Canada, will be fulfilled from our UK warehouses. EU customers will be charged VAT through Backerkit pledge manager, and the games will be delivered duty paid.

Sample estimated shipping rates

All prices outside UK and USA exclude local taxes. Where a range is given, the final figure will depend on the specific state/country - please contact us if you would like an estimate.
