Pickpocket Press is currently in the midst of a very successful crowdfunding project to fund the Adventure Anthology for Shadowdark. Designed for the popular rules light, old-school flavored fantasy roleplaying game – you can check out my Shadowdark review here – this volume promises 22 tales to keep your players entertained for plenty of sessions. The Kickstarter has passed the 1100% funding mark and you can reserve a copy of the 220 page PDF, plus a print at cost coupon, for a pledge of approximately $16.00 through March 25th. Expected delivery on the PDF and coupon is April.
About the anthology:
The book consists of twenty two short, sharp, independent adventures, designed for low prep, improvised play. Each adventure has a hook/rumours, core scenario, random encounters, NPC details, and B&W illustrations. Nineteen have hand drawn maps. The settings are common locations such as cities, forests, mountains, underground, etc, for easy insertion into your sandbox campaign. They’re suitable for PC Levels 1-7 and generally run around six to ten hours of session time.
Originally written for Low Fantasy Gaming RPG, the adventures tend to be lower magic, with a sword & sorcery bent. There are some references to the people and places of the Midlands of Argosa, but these are easily swapped out for your favorite setting.
