Project Update: Why 2027?
Hi!
You might be asking why we're not launching this Halloween. Well, up to now, we've crowdfunded partly-finished projects and they've always taken far longer to complete, manufacture and distribute than anticipated. This has led to significant drop-off in support and no small amount of anxiety on my part.
With Cryptid Cities and Tendrils we're taking the contemporary approach and ensuring both games are fully complete at launch, with the funds reimbursing our time, the art, editing, layout and most importantly, the printing.
So where are both games in terms of progress?

So where are both games in terms of progress?
- Cryptid Cities is around 50% written, with the new Playbook moves, campaign chapter and 8 Curses still to finish. These will be completed by the team by March 2027, at which point we'll commission Crowva Arts, Lucille Nual, WillowsQuest, and Fernando Salvaterra to work on the art up to the October 19th launch.
- Tendrils is 80% written, with the card prompts and random tables still to come. These will be completed along with spot illustrations by Crowva Arts by January, ready for the Zinetopia event in February.
We're so excited to bring this collection together and have a game in the Creeks mythos available for every roleplayer, whether teenager, adult, or solo player.
