There’s little over a day left, at the time of writing, to back Studio Agate’s Creatures: Complete Monster Compendium for 5e and get a pair of metal dice. If you miss the early bird deal, there’s still plenty of time to back the project.
Creatures offer up 200 monsters and NPCs plus new archetypes and rules to bring more playable species into your 5e campaigns.
Studio Agate should be a familiar name to some Geek Native readers. This French studio is responsible for Shadows of Esteren and Fateforge. Many other RPGs are translated and published in French because of them.
Want to check out the book? Geek Native has already published this preview but a $1 pledge will give you access to this download too.
It takes a pledge of US$20 to get the PDF version of Creatures (and the early bird metal dice or bonus PDFs).
Prefer a hardcover? That’s $40, but you get the PDF too, all stretch goals and the early bird deal is still there.
The technique is working. Studio Agate asked for $20,000 for Creatures. Given their track record with quality books and shiny metal die on offer, the Kickstarter campaign has surged beyond $100,000 in hours.
There are a few pledge tiers higher. $70 gets you the Collectors Pack, and $160 gets you the Fateforge RPG Collectors Pack. Fateforge is their 5e setting with an entirely different feel to a traditional Forgotten Realms high-fantasy clone.
