Project Update: What’s in the Box?

Hello survivors! We’ve had a lot of excited fans asking what to expect when the Ink Ribbon campaign goes live, so today we’re taking a look at what’s in store. Before we dive in, I want to say a massive thank you to the over 1,000 people who have already joined us! The excitement and support for Ink ribbon have been off the charts, and the community is in full swing taking the rules for a test drive. If you haven’t already, be sure to join our Discord to get in on the action. 


I’m a massive fan of boxed TTRPGs full of lots of stuff, so Ink Ribbon will launch with two boxed sets packed with booklets and other fun bits. You’ll be able to choose from the Core Set or the Deluxe Set, and both will also be available digitally. If you back at a physical tier, you get the PDFs for free!

Core Set

The Core Set will be €60 (€30 digital) and will include:

  • Survivor’s Handbook: Contains the core rules, quick and easy character creation, and a plethora of weapons and gear you’ll need to fight for survival.
  • Welcome to Sparrow’s Rest: A visitor’s guide to the picturesque city of Sparrow’s Rest, revealing the dark history and hidden secrets that lie beneath the surface (literally and figuratively). Includes optional rules to tweak your campaign, making it more action-focused or ratcheting up the horror!
  • Heal-X Pharmaceuticals Research Dossier: Uncover the truth that Heal-X doesn’t want you to know, with a dossier full of twisted experiments and bio-weapons gone wrong. Packed with all manner of weird monsters and mutated beasts. 
  • Dead of Arrival: Take your first shambling steps into Sparrow’s Rest as you crash (literally) into the centre of the virus outbreak. In this introductory scenario, you’ll explore the Sparrow’s Rest Police Department in search of supplies and weapons, all while you try to figure out how the hell you’re going to escape the doomed city. 
  • GM Screen (Standard): A black-and-white three-panel GM screen filled with important rules, reminders, and tables for finding supplies. 
  • Map of Sparrow’s Rest (Standard): A black-and-white fold-out map of Sparrow’s Rest to keep track of where you’ve explored. 


Deluxe Set

The Deluxe Set will be €100 (€50 digital) and will include all the booklets from the Core Set, plus: 

  • Lone Survivor: Solo rules for exploring Sparrow’s Rest alone — survive as long as you can!
  • Unexplained Phenomena: Heal-X has been up to more than just mad science — they’ve been dabbling in the occult! This booklet adds new supernatural character options and monsters, so you can experience a whole new kind of horror
  • New Scenarios: Two new scenarios, written by two fantastic guest writers (soon to be announced)!
  • GM Screen and Map Upgrade: Larger, full-colour version of the GM Screen and Map.
  • Character Sheets: 10 blank character sheets (spares for when survivors get eaten)
  • Tokens: Easily keep track of Horror, Stress, and Adrenaline!
  • Custom Dice: A set of 8 custom six-sided dice.
  • Storage Box: An ammo-style storage box for keeping your tokens and dice!

So that’s what we have on offer — so far (we may be adding some extra stuff!). Fans who back the Core Set can pick up the other booklets for €15 (€8 digitally).

So, what are you most excited about? We want to know! We’ll be back next week with a new update — and an exciting announcement! So stay tuned. 

Thanks again, survivors. Keep those medkits close and watch out for zombies!
