If so, the <em><strong>ThunderCats</strong></em> are back as a comic book series (2024 to present) from <strong>Dynamite Entertainment</strong>, which leads to this project, <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/toysandgames/the-thundercats-roleplaying-game-is-here" target="_blank"><em><strong>The ThunderCats Roleplaying Game</strong></em></a>. Designed by <strong><a href="https://lynnvander.rocks/games" target="_blank">Lynnvander Studios</a> </strong>and published by <strong>Dynamite</strong>, this 240-page core rulebook uses the 2024 version of <strong>5e</strong> to tells of the survivors of Thundara and the citizens of Third Earth. Want to play as a ThunderCat, a Mu'tant, or another character from Third Earth or beyond, this book gives you the rules for that and new subclasses specific to this setting. For my part, I’m interested in stats for the variety of bad guys and technology from this setting, the Berserkers and vehicles like the ThunderTank will be fun additions to <strong>5e</strong>. The worldbuilding and setting are a blend of the cartoon and comic continuities, which I assume means the 1980s series and the various comic books it inspired. The source of the setting material is critical for fans since not every incarnation of these characters is every fans cup of tea. If you’re a fan of the original <em><strong>ThunderCats</strong></em>, this project is worth a review on <strong>Kickstarter</strong>.</li> </ul> <p style="text-align: center"><a href="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/toysandgames/the-thundercats-roleplaying-game-is-here/" target="_blank"><img src="https://www.kicktraq.com/projects/toysandgames/the-thundercats-roleplaying-game-is-here/minichart.png" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" /></a></p><p>[ATTACH=full]426109[/ATTACH]</p><p><strong><a href="https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/steve-jackson-games/toon-the-cartoon-roleplaying-game" target="_blank">Toon the Cartoon Roleplaying Game Second Edition</a> from </strong><a href="https://www.drivethrurpg.com/en/publisher/12199/steve-jackson-games?affiliate_id=814082" target="_blank"><strong>Steve Jackson Games</strong></a></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Jan 15, 2026 at 3:00pm EST.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>CROWDFUNDING ON: <a href="https://www.backerkit.com/c/projects/steve-jackson-games/toon-the-cartoon-roleplaying-game" target="_blank">Backerkit</a></strong></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>SYSTEM(S)</strong>: <em><strong>Toon 2e</strong></em></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>PROJECT TYPE</strong>: Core rulebook</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>MOST POPULAR PLEDGE</strong>: $35 + S/H for the PDF and softcover of the book</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN?</strong> In 1984, Steve Jackson recreate the <em><strong>Looney Tunes</strong></em> and <em><strong>Looney Tunes</strong></em> adjacent era of cartoons for your tabletop. In 2025, he’s crowdfunding the second edition of the ruleset a light 41 years later. The gap of time between the 1st and 2nd editions of the game is so long it adds to the humor of the series. But this is a serious endeavor. This project could have been a legacy reprint and probably scored just as much funding with less effort. Instead, <strong>SJG</strong> felt that they have something new to say and are creating a new version of the game with improved tables, mechanics, layouts, and more. I’m not saying that they shouldn’t do a new edition, quite the opposite. A second edition requires real work and offers a new experience for gamers, even veterans of the original. Do you want to play as a cartoon character being as wacky as possible? Then try out <em><strong>Toon 2e</strong></em> on <strong>Backerkit</strong>.</li> </ul><p>[ATTACH=full]426110[/ATTACH]</p><p><strong><a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tombancientmoorking/tomb-of-the-ancient-moor-king" target="_blank">Tomb of the Ancient Moor King</a> from Orange Cat Games</strong></p><ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>END DATE</strong>: Tue, January 20 2026 10:02 AM EST.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>CROWDFUNDING ON: <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/tombancientmoorking/tomb-of-the-ancient-moor-king" target="_blank">Kickstarter</a></strong></li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>SYSTEM(S)</strong>: OSR</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>PROJECT TYPE</strong>: Adventure</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>MOST POPULAR PLEDGE</strong>: $30 + S/H for the PDF and print versions of book</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul"><strong>WHY SPOTLIGHT THIS CAMPAIGN?</strong> An old bard offers your party the path to an ancient tomb, he just asks one thing in return, which is not disclosed on the campaign pitch page.
