MORE STRETCH GOALS REVEALED!!
almost 2 years ago – Wed, Jul 20, 2022 at 10:55:51 AM

Wandering Welkins! Backers! Gregarious Goblins!

We have heard your cries from across the land for more information on the stretch goals. So we turned the mist-revealing machine to ultra-mega speed and it pulled away the fog revealing MORE stretch goals. It may have shifted some of the goal thresholds around a bit too. We may have turned it up too far. Oops.

Behold! 

  • An entire set of Meeples! 
  • Adventures from AMAZING guest writers:
    • JP Coovert, cartoonist, illustrator and designer
    • Rae Nedjadi, Nebula award-winning contributing writer on Thirsty Sword Lesbians and designer of Cozy Town
    • Amir Rao, Studio Director of Supergiant Games (Hades, Bastion, Transistor, Pyre)
    • Kienna Shaw, TTRPG writer and designer (contributor to Candlekeep Mysteries, Sea of Legends and more)
    • Luke Gearing, TTRPG writer and designer of Acid Death Fantasy, Fever Swamp and more.
  • Gelatinous Goo Blue Dice Set
  • A beautiful GM screen by John Loren, cover artist of the Mucklands Sandbox! 


Once unlocked, the Meeples (set of 6), dice set, and GM Screen will be added to the add-on category along with their pricing, so you can get them post campaign as well!

Adventurers, thank you for all the love and support we have received. We are so excited to ride with you through the rest of the campaign.

Oh yeah! One more thing. The art for the GM Screen by artist John Loren will be revealed at a later date. Stay tuned to future updates for that announcement!

Thank you!

Fifth stretch goal UNLOCKED!
almost 2 years ago – Sun, Jul 17, 2022 at 10:52:46 AM

Citizens of Eem! Backers! Heroes of the realm!

We did it! We’ve hit the 150k milestone, and are adding a Bard meeple in all his tiny glory to the Box Set! But this is no ordinary bard–this is Rickety Stitch (and the Gelatinous Goo), heroes of our fantasy graphic novel series. Now you can gallivant across the Mucklands map in style and regale your fellow players with imaginary tunes.



We have come so far together, friends, but there are miles still yet to go! The next milestone unlocks at 175k where we have a special surprise in store for you. JP Coovert, cartoonist, illustrator and designer extraordinaire, will write and illustrate an Adventure PDF filled with wacky Hijinks for your table. What might be in this adventure you ask? Well, I am pretty sure we should keep that a surprise, but since we like you so much, here is what we can share.

Pirates! Treasure! Skeletons! Ghosts! And hermit crabs?

Whew, that was a lot! Probably said more than we should have. Ah well… Until the next update, adventurers, be safe out there in the Mucklands.

Fourth stretch goal UNLOCKED!
almost 2 years ago – Thu, Jul 14, 2022 at 04:52:34 PM

Wayward Explorers, Backers, Charming Bards!

The 125k milestone is now behind us! This grand adventure would not be possible without all of you. So again, thank you ever so much for all your support.

Let’s talk about the goal we just unlocked, shall we?

With the first Sandbox Expansion we’re going to be adding 5 more locations to the Used T’Be Forest region of the Mucklands realm. What nuggets of lore will be contained therein? How much richer will these locations make your journeys into this broken landscape ruined by greed, ambition, and a lack of moral fiber? Well, let us give you a few tidbits.

  • The Stone: An outpost of Felmog quest knights, also home to a dreadful sorcerer!

  • Chief Chopper’s Mill: One of the last operating lumber mills in the region. But with the flatlands all but completely felled, rumor has it, they’ve turned to the haunted forest of Grimly Wood!

  • Muckbang’s: An all you can eat joint run by an orch named Muckbang. Hungry customers headbang to loud music while shoveling slop into their mouths out of troughs. Always a swell time!

We’re super excited to share that when we hit the next milestone at 150k, the Bard Meeple (Rickety Stitch and the Gelatinous Goo!) will be added to the Box Set! You’ll be able to mark the map in style as your party gallivants across the Mucklands realm.


Adventurers! Thank you for traveling with us this far. There is so much more to come. We will see you in the next update.
