April 4, 2023: Kickstarter Reports, April 2023 Update

Our stockpile of projects waiting for their turn at Kickstarter continues to grow, with the exact schedule in a state of flux as we focus on different games and ideas. Some larger projects – Groo, new Pocket Box games, Pathfinder Revolution! – keep sliding as we wait for the bigger open campaigns (such as Wiz-War and Munchkin Witches) to come to a close. On top of that, we sometimes respond to opportunities when we see an opening, which also pushes those lying-in-wait projects down on the calendar.

Read on to see the active projects . . . and please follow us on Kickstarter – Steve Jackson Games and Warehouse 23 – to see what comes next.

• The campaign closed successfully and we're now collecting shirt sizes and waiting for the surveys to close. The promo cards are complete, the playmats are at print, and the T-shirts will head to print just as soon as we have closed the surveys. 

Hexagram #11, an Old-School RPG Zine for The Fantasy Trip
