The Fantasy Trip Bestiary

It has required years of work, with Steve and Ben handling the heavy lifting (with the help of several others, both staff and freelancers), but we're now seeing the Bestiary come together as a must-grab addition to The Fantasy Trip rolelplaying game. This 192-page hardcover is on our Kickstarter schedule for 2022, and we'll be ready to slot it into the channel once the last bits of creative work have been completed. Our goal is to have the book – as well as the stretch goals – ready to go so that if the crowdfunding campaign succeeds, we can take the book to print and minimize the time between the end of the campaign and delivery of the printed hardcover.

For those outside of the United States, we're also planning a reward level that includes a print-on-demand code for the hardcover book. It won't include the counters and cards (keep reading, gang!), but the code will make it a lot easier for many of you to add the hardcover to your game collection. 

Stretch goals. We've got two bigs one planned – nine counter sheets for the creatures detailed in the book – and monster cards that allow GMs to mix the monsters from this book with those cards found in the Old School Monsters and Decks of Destiny expansions. There may be a few other smaller stretch goals; we're still reviewing the project and making decisions.

We're not yet ready for the crowdfunding campaign, but we encourage you to follow us on Kickstarter – Steve Jackson Games and Warehouse 23 – to receive notice when the Bestiary project goes live.
