A crossover between Animon Story and Break!! RPG is one of many new features unlocked by the expansion Kickstarter campaign
Coming up on the end of the first week since launching Animon Story: Legend’s Wake on Kickstarter, I am so delighted with how well it’s been received so far. Not only did we fund within 3 hours and reach nearly 300% funded after 1 week, but we've already unlocked a huge number of additions and extras through the stretch goals!
Break!! RPG x Animon Story
I'm absolutely thrilled to announce a collaboration between Animon Story and Break!! RPG! I'll be working with Reynaldo Madriñan/Naldobean Games (@NaldoDrinan) and Carlo Tartaglia/Grey Wizard Press (@MysteriousPath) on a chapter for Legend's Wake.
I, like many others, have eagerly followed the development of Break!! for many years. In 2023, over 10,000 backers helped make the game a reality, and ever since I got my copy I've been absolutely charmed by the vibrant world and illustrations, precise and well-crafted rules, and by just how much fun this game brings to the table.
This will be a fantastic addition to Legend's Wake - both for Break!! fans and Animon Story fans! We're excited to include fun crossovers between the Dunia Region and Outer World, but have no fear-the module will be based around fun optional mechanics that can be included in any Animon Story game.
There are now ten new Kid Types on the way for players to choose when creating characters, four of them unlocked via stretch goals. These include the Specialist, Sleuth, Outsider, and Mystic, sure to bring a fresh perspective.
Not only that, but new game mechanics and story have been added, such as Secret Base rules evoking a fan-favourite feature of Pokémon, an Epilogue Adventure to revisit the campaign after it's finished, a new Mythical Animon released somewhere in the Dunia Region, and more.
Future stretch goals will add a Mystery Dungeon inspired spin-off mode, expanded guidance for creating and using Villain Teams in your campaign, and a double sided poster map displaying the Dunia Region, with an animon checklist on the back.
Two years after launching the original game, I'm so happy to be able to present Legend's Wake, the first full sized expansion for Animon Story. All of you who backed the first project, and who've continued to play and share in the animon journey, have made this possible.
Legend’s Wake expands upon the original Animon Story rulebook in every way, providing more depth, more options for players and GMs, more guidance for running the game, and a fully developed setting and campaign to play out of the book, or customised to your liking!
Journey across the Dunia Region, a place where humans and animon live alongside one another. This is a world of both tradition and progress, where sparkling modern cities meet rustic rural villages. As new technology confronts ancient legendary powers, can harmony truly be found between humans and animon?
The Legend’s Wake expansion is presented as both as digital PDF and physical hardcover book, which will be produced upon successful funding of this Kickstarter. Alongside the book, a brand new Animon Card Deck is being funded. The deck will contain 50 illustrated tarot-sized cards, along with game stats, making them a stylish and useful addition to your Animon Story campaign.
Animon Story: Legend’s Wake is launching on Kickstarter on August 16th at roughly 4.30pm BST/8.30am PDT. Make sure you sign up on the pre-launch page to be notified as soon as the campaign goes live!
Check below for news on what will be available, and for more info on the expansion:
Legend’s Wake is Animon Story’s first full length expansion, adding more depth and new options to almost every aspect of the game, from character creation, to adventuring through campaigns, and everything in between. Where the core rulebook encourages you to create your own setting, this time there’s a whole world ready and waiting for you to adventure in!
Featuring:
The Dunia Region, a detailed and expansive setting to adventure in.
The Legend’s Wake Campaign, an adventure of legendary proportions set within the Dunia Region.
Lots of new player options including Kid Types, animon abilities, and more.
Expanded optional rules for building a team of animon partners to adventure with.
New guides and optional rules for GMs including battle styles and variations, encounter building, and advice on integrating characters into the world.
Tons of new items and power-ups for characters to find and use.
New NPCs from the Dunia Region and over 50 new illustrated animon, including powerful legendary animon and guides on creating and using your own.
A brand new Animon Card Deck is being produced alongside Legend’s Wake, featuring the all new animon appearing in the Dunia Region! These 50 tarot-sized cards are vibrantly illustrated, and contain in-game stats to be used as a helpful reference at the table. This is the second Animon Card Deck, and it contains all newly illustrated animon, no repeats from the first deck.
Alongside the Legend’s Wake expansion and Card Deck #2 being funded in this campaign, there’ll also be reward tiers and add-ons for previously published Animon Story products. This of course includes the core rulebook which is required to play. Be sure to spread the word, even to folks who might have missed the first Kickstarter!
The Legend’s Wake campaign will continue to expand to ever more legendary proportions as we get more support from backers. New Kid Types, optional rules, bonus content, and even special guest contributors will be added via stretch goals, so be sure to check back often.
Animon Story: Legend’s Wake is set to be a huge new expansion, and this campaign contains great offers for animon veterans and newcomers alike! Join in for the launch on AUGUST 16th 2024.
