PDFs available and Printing In Process

Happy Holidays and Happy New Year

From everyone at Studio 9 Games, we hope you are having a wonderful Holiday and that your upcoming New Year is fun and safe.

Today we released the PDF editions for all products on the BACKERKIT download area. In addition, we released the PDF of the RIDERS ON THE MIDNIGHT STORM adventure and the prequel INTO THE DARK on DrivethruRPG. You should have, or will be receiving, your download codes for DTRPG.

The PDF map poster for RIDERS ON THE MIDNIGHT STORM is only available as a download on BACKERKIT because it is a pledge exclusive (not available for sale).

Meanwhile the proofs are looking amazing, and I am excited to share those in the next update!

NOTE REGARDING MAPS: The 2 maps got fused into one distribution rule on the back end, meaning, a lot of people got the same map twice. Now, the rule was removed and separated. You should get a new notice, with 2 different maps. One is the PLAYER and JUDGE map only. The other is the JUDGE map with STANDEES.

Off to the Printer!

Hey, where is my "Riders on the Midnight Storm" adventure book?

I hear you, and we are happy to announce: it is going to the printer this week! Our editorial process hit a bit of a snag, but we are back on track. So we will likely start shipments next month. Everything is looking REALLY good! Thank you Tim Wadzinski, & Heidi Parsons for great editing work.

Mega Announcement

In case you missed the Goodman Games announcement, MEGA DUNGEON MONTH is coming APRIL! And we are offering TWO amazing adventures and resource booklets for all you mega dungeon delvers. This is 5e and DCC goodness! For those fans following the art of C. Aaron Kreader here, (free or paid options to support our artists!) we have some bonus opportunities if you sign up. This includes a secret exclusive pledge level. Check it out to get your extra goodies.

Riders on the Midnight Storm: Status Update

Currently we have completed the writing, art, and design. Now the work is in final editing stages. After completed, we will work on the pre-press for all materials. Once we send everything to the printer, (in about 4 weeks) we should be on track to send out your copies on time! So please, everyone complete those surveys (20 people still need to complete their survey).

Castle Whiterock Challenge and 101 Dungeon Encounters Reservations

For our next two releases (coming APRIL 2026) we have some exciting challenges for you. If you are a Castle Whiterock fan, (or maybe just lucky) check out the PRE-BACKER Challenge. Join as any member level—even free—on PATREON to send your answers here. From PATREON you get access to cool stuff, freebies, and for paid members support of the art that fuels these works. Send me a chat message about for the two images (either room name or room number) and I will send you back the direct access to a hidden pledge level for Castle Whiterock: An Illustrated Journey!  Try it, you may surprise yourself!

And don't forget to follow along the 101 Dungeon Encounters pre-launch party. We have special goodies for those who reserve a spot!

All Surveys Sent & PDF MAP error—FIXED

Survey Release

Everyone should have a survey. You will have a bit of time before those are locked, so you can always come back and adjust your address if needed.

Map Incentive Error

Thank you for finding an incentive error and letting me know! When we added the 48 hour incentive, we failed to create the PDF versions for PDF only backers*. This led to PDF only backers (with 48 hour incentives) having to enter mailing addresses and seeing a shipping charge.

*If your account was missed in this correction, just let me know by sending in a support message.

Greetings, I hope your holiday has been a merry one. I backed for the digital-only Riders on the Midnight Storm pledge tier. I picked up the digital-only versions of Into the Dark and Classic DCC RPG 10-pack of Studio 9 Games add-ons during the campaign as well. I'd like to know the following: 1) As downloads for Riders on the Midnight Storm and Into the Dark went out on BackerKit, I'm under the impression this was just to quickly get something out to folks for the holidays. I'd like to confirm if DriveThruRPG redemption for Riders on the Midnight Storm, Into the Dark, and Classic DCC RPG 10-pack of Studio 9 Games is still forthcoming, correct? 2) I am a 48-hour early backer as indicated on my pledge. The pledge survey indicated a map on the reward list while the initial pledge level didn't. I had believed this to be the 48-hour early backer reward. However, when I downloaded the Riders on the Midnight Storm map, it did not resemble the 48-hour early backer one. Specifically, there's no Ally and Cult Army standee section. I now believe I only received the general module map and not the early backer promo poster map. Is this true? If so, can I be sent the digital 48-hour early backer poster map, please?

I'm not seeing any differences between the PDF Riders Midnight Storm Map and the PDF Riders Storm Map. Is one supposed to be for Judges and the other players? I think both of these are for the Judge.
