No AI [Chaosium] It's time to delve into the Fog... Time Without Tide, our latest TTRPG, is live now on Backerkit! (and funded in 13 minutes!)



The moon has fallen
The Age of Decadence has ended.
Monsters lurk in the fog.
Soon, they will devour us all.

TIME WITHOUT TIDE is a brand new tabletop roleplaying game from Chaosium. It’s a game of exploration and adventure in a foggy, faux-Victorian post-apocalypse. Blend character-driven intrigue, grand voyages, and tactical combat.

Use diplomacy and creativity to explore the richly detailed World of Fog, then use a highly customizable character development system to reinforce your bark with bite.

Live now on Backerkit... it's time to delve into the Fog:​

We’re live! Time Without Tide has launched, and funded in 13 minutes. Not only that, we’ve hit our first funding goal in less than an hour.
Thank you, earnestly, to everybody who’s supported the game and the team. We couldn’t have done it without you. Now, we can focus on making Time Without Tide the best it possibly can be. That starts right now. This is only the beginning!

Our first funding goal is a set of EXPANDED BACKGROUNDS. Check out the stretch goals section of the Backerkit page for more information.

Our next goal, adding POSTER MAPS to every physical copy of the Core Rulebook, kicks in at $50,000.

TIME WITHOUT TIDE Project Update: Poster Maps, Extra Ribbons, Time Without Tide Gathers Speed

We’ve been live for just under five hours and we are approaching 600 backers. We’ve got the POSTER MAPS and EXTRA RIBBON stretch goals cleared. We’re on our way to the next one, a BONUS ADVENTURE written by the talented George Mann!

It’s utterly surreal to see so many people celebrating Time Without Tide. It is also extremely late (early) in Australia. So some folks are signing off and others are signing on. Join the campaign on Backerkit!

That is three stretch goals down! We're so excited that AUTHOR GEORGE MANN (Star Wars, DC Comics, Dark Souls) will now officially be contributing an adventure for Into The Fog! That also means everyone who gets Into The Fog will be getting an ADDITIONAL ADVENTURE.

The Fog is still thick and we’re holding our lantern high as we Delve deeper! Just ahead we can see that at $150,000 we will unlock BONUS MINIS. These miniatures will not only be added to both the physical miniature pack, but EVERY BACKER will receive the STLs for these bonus minis FOR FREE! Join us on Backerkit!

Mirth and Misery in a faux-Victorian post-appocalypse! Our Time Without Tide Backerkit campaign is live!

The narration for this trailer was performed by Mark Meer.

 

Since we launched, community support has already pushed us past several stretch goals. That means we can add more to Time Without Tide, including to what's already listed on the campaign page. Here’s the latest:

MORE MINIATURES!

All backers, regardless of tier, get an STL file of two characters from the Time Without Tide: Quickstart adventure, Lonely Phareflaw. Technically, it’s three characters if you count a toy bear. You can use these files in VTT play, or print them out at home if you have the tools to do so.

There’s more. Every backer who ordered the physical miniatures set gets these additional models added to their set at no extra cost. If you haven't ordered the physical miniatures set yet, don’t worry about missing out. This is a permanent upgrade to the physical miniatures set. We can’t wait to see some painted versions!

Coming next, at $175K, we'll be adding the Time Without Tide Quickstart to Roll20 VTT, and all backers will receive it free!
