- WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN? What’s your favorite dinosaur? Want to fight it at your gaming table? Splatter Ink Games’ A Time Traveler's Guide to Dinosaur Hunting brings that option to gamers eager to mix it up with the cold-blooded masters of the past. This book presents all of the thunder lizards you could ask for: Over 300 dinos and prehistoric monsters, cyborg dinosaurs, mutant dinos, and extraterrestrial dinosaurs to pit your players against. Dinosaur mounts, cybernetics, lineages, classes, and 12 adventures make this a resource for your 5e games. Over the years, there have been many 5e dinosaur options, most focused on realism. These books offer both realism and sci-fi options, this product gives GMs a variety of ways to bring dinos to the table. Will your players hunt dinosaurs or be hunted? Written as a two volume set with over 600 pages of content, this book offers a time travel element so you can pop-in for the dino fights from the comfort of your current campaign. If you’re interested in dinosaurs, this campaign page has a link to the quickstart PDF to give you a sample of the setting.
Cats! The Conspurracy TTRPG from Black Book Editions
- END DATE: Fri, February 14 2025 5:59 PM EST.
- SYSTEM(S): An original system
- PROJECT TYPE: Core rulebook
- MOST POPULAR PLEDGE: €25 for the PDF of the core rulebook
- WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN? Unlike our world, in this game not every cat is special. In this game, the “special” cats are the Awakened Cats, those that possess psychic abilities. Long ago, the original Awakened Cats created humans. Today, they maintain the illusion of human free will. If you like cat-centric TTRPGs, this game has a lot of content that overlaps with other cat themed games: The cats are elevated, they have secret powers, they help their clueless humans. In this game, there are elements that feel like a cute version of Vampire: The Masquerade’s Masquerade. Even though they’re more powerful, the Awakened Cats maintain the facade for fear of the humans and how they’d react. Again, this is the cute version, so you’re maintaining The Conspurracy for fun reasons that lead to wacky feline adventures. If you’re a fan of cats (on Broadway or otherwise), this game may speak to your gaming table.

- WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN? With Valentine’s Day coming up, this game taps into the spirit of the season by offering a dating simulation TTRPG for play with your significant other. The premise is an RPG duet where the player is the hero, the GM plays the world including the five potential love interests that you’ll attempt to woo. Designed for adults, in the FAQs, they call out that Lewd Dungeon Adventures is LGBTQ friendly. Each scenario is designed to be played in one of three ways: Intimate acts, drinking, or a party version for groups. Will this project appeal to you? That’s a difficult question to answer. Some players will be instant fans of this, others will not connect with the idea of dungeon diving as an, um, adult metaphor. If you want to read more about Lewd Dungeon Adventures, check out the campaign page for more details.
