Project Update: Dice, the XP Deck, & the Book Safe Presentation Box!

Hello, archivists—

Happy official Spooky Season! We have news about the last reward from this campaign: the Book Safe Presentation Box. Read on for details on the exclusive dice set, the Book Safe Presentation Box, and exciting Cypher Tools news!

Have you redeemed your dice?

The Magnus Archives Roleplaying Game crowdfunding campaign-exclusive dice have been fulfilled! These gorgeous, gem-cut math-stones are truly something to behold. We hope you’re enjoying playing with them! (Need a reminder of how to redeem crowdfunding campaign rewards? You can always check out this helpful guide!)

Proofs of The Magnus Archives Roleplaying Game exclusive dice from the manufacturer


The Book Safe Presentation Box is being manufactured!

The Book Safe Presentation Box has officially begun its production process, after some not-insubstantial delays with overseas manufacturers. We’ve already gotten word that a physical proof copy is in transit to us right now! 
 
It’ll take a few weeks for all the boxes to be manufactured (estimated completion is end of November)—but by our next update, we should have photos to share! Overseas shipping takes a few weeks as well, so fulfillment for the Presentation Box set is likely to begin in earnest in very early 2027. 
 
If you haven’t redeemed your Dice Set yet, you can always wait to claim it alongside the Presentation Box. This duo will be quite the sight to behold! 
 
Thank you for your ongoing patience and courtesy as we work to get this product delivered as quickly as possible while maintaining our high standards of quality. We know it’s been a hot minute, and cannot express enough how grateful we are for your kindness. 

Check out The Magnus Archives Roleplaying Game XP Deck on the Datasphere Deck Tool!

We have even more exciting TMA news to share—but of the digital variety! The Magnus Archives XP Deck has been added to the Datasphere Deck Tool as part of our ongoing support for online play.
 

 
When you purchase one of our digital decks, you receive it not only in PDF format, but also via the Datasphere Deck Tool. This unique product format makes our digital decks as useful for online play as the print decks are at the physical game table. 

  • Draw random cards, or view the entire deck and pick one. 
  • Copy the card image and “hand” it to your player via your VTT, in a Discord chat, or however you communicate when you play online. 
  • Or click to copy the text and send them just that. 
  • Peruse a deck easily, sort cards, and organize them as you see fit. 
 
The Datasphere Deck Tool gives your deck the same time-saving and inspirational utility in the digital space as a print deck delivers at the physical game table—and it’s free, in addition to the PDF file. (In fact, you will probably find the Datasphere Deck Tool to be much handier than the PDF.)
 

The Datasphere Deck Tool is easy and fun to use!

Anyone can use a Basic version of a deck for free, or, if you own it on the MCG Shop, load your purchase straight into the Datasphere Deck Tool and start pulling cards. That means, if the Magnus Archives XP Deck is among your rewards from this campaign, and you redeemed it through the MCG Shop, you can start using the full version right now!
 
  • Go to decks.cypher-rpg.com
  • Log in with the same username and password as you use here on the MCG Shop. You must log in via the MCG Shop to access your purchased decks.
  • Under Decks in the upper-left, click Add Deck.
    • You’ll see a list of all your purchased decks, and, below that, other available decks. Click on the deck you wish to use.
    • If you don’t see a deck you own, under your account icon (in the upper-right), select Refresh My Decks.
    • You can also the free basic decks—their card selection is limited, but they’re fully functional.
  • Click the deck to draw the top card. Or click the deck name in the Decks menu to see all of your cards—and pick the cards you want.
  • Once a card is out on the canvas, double-click it for a closer look. From there you can copy an image of the card, or the card text, to send to a player.
  • If you also want the deck in PDF, simply download it from your account on the MCG Shop.
 
We’ll have more news about The Magnus Archives Roleplaying Game online implementation to share soon—make sure to stay tuned for our next update for those tidbits as well as Presentation Box manufacturing updates!

Thanks for your support!
 —Team MCG
