Shadows of Esteren: Travels Shatters $30K in First Day on Kickstarter

Jul 12, 2013

The hit French roleplaying game Shadows of Esteren has a new supplement up for funding on Kickstarter and the project rocketed past $30,000 within the first 24 hours of crowd funding. Shadows of Esteren: Book Three – Travels expands upon the Esteren universe with area descriptions, scenarios, expanded bestiary, and more. The hardcover of the new English edition of book three can be had at the $40 base level of funding and the project runs through August 11th. You can check out my review of SoE book one right here.

From Agate Editions:

After Book 0 – Prologue and Book 1 – Universe, we are very proud to show you the third opus of the series: Book 2 – Travels. The purpose of this campaign is to help us finance a Limited Edition, as well as some exclusive content for this new release.

A new edition with improved content

The version we are speaking of is an upgrade of the original French version. Initially, it was a softcover book of 80 pages. The English version is twice as big, resulting in a fully colored hardcover book of 196 pages.

Deliveries next October!

We have worked on this book all through the year, and we are glad to announce that the PDF of Book 2 – Travels is now finished. The additional content for the Limited Edition is almost finished. Soon, all there will remain to do will be to send it all to our printer!
We have previously organized two Kickstarter campaigns, and we have learned valuable lessons from them. This time, we have designed a campaign with stretch goals that will not slow down the crafting process. These additional rewards will include PDFs, but also other kinds of bonuses that we hope we will get to reveal. This way, we are certain that we will be able to send you your rewards by next October – perhaps earlier, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. Making deliveries on time is very important for us!
