Rad Zone goes from Strength to Strength

As we approach the last 48 hours of the Rad Zone Kickstarter we should reflect on how much we have added to the game and what current, and potential, new backers will receive when the campaign finishes. This is of course all added to the original content.

1.       The Search Matrix has been expanded to give the player more search results

2.       12 more characters are available

3.       Characters can now have Companions in game

4.       Journeys to and from the city now have more options

5.       And the new narrative rumour mechanism will add to the story!


Key of course is that all backers will feel the benefits of these stretch goal milestones as they enhance the core rulebook. We must not forget as well that we have a core game that has flourished thanks to feedback on, and the interest in, the project. Kickstarter again has proven to be a motivational collaborative space supported by patrons who’s backing not only helps fund but also drive and design more original content.

As I write this, we are just about to pass 1000% funded. Thank you everybody! It is amazing! We now have another stretch goal £6000! And this will allow us to add even more art to the book and enhance the atmosphere further.

I still have big plans. This game will be supported beyond this Kickstarter campaign with free content as well as expansions later in the year. As we have done successfully with Dark Force Incursion we will continued to develop and support the game. You have bought not only into Rad Zone but its future as well!

Presenting Dark Force Incursion - A FREE Roll and Write One Player Game

It has been on my mind for a while now as the Corona-virus spreads across the world . What can I offer those who are at home and unable to partake in their usual gaming sessions because of isolation. How can a creative mind help alleviate the stress of boredom and worry? I have seen other roll and write games and thought that might be a great way of giving something to the community to these very ends.    Looking at what I have previously worked on under the DR Games and the hex tile has been a feature. I decide that I would try and use this format, combine it with a number mechanism and inject it with a narrative. This became a scenario that fuel the fire of the story...and Dark Force Incursion was born.   " Y o u r l a n d h a s b e e n i n v a d e d b y a p o w e r f u l D a r k F o r c e .

More Time for Board Games?

How we manage our leisure time has definitely changed over the years. This I guess isn’t new news, so to speak. We are all aware of the Netflix phenomenon and boxsets and series binging. In fact, it feels like if you can’t have the whole series now, all at once, it causes a frustrated condition that I’m sure they’ll name at some point as a medical condition. I recently started watching Picard on Amazon and actually quite like only having one episode to look forward to a week. But at the same time it is nice to have all the episodes available especially for the Expanse! And even if we have only one episode to watch a week we can watch it when we want. But there is so much choice how can you run out! I hear people saying yet I think another effect of having everything at your fingertips is we become fussier. I have little patience for a series that doesn’t grip me straight away, which I’m not sure how I feel about. This is another reason why we run out of things to watch, creating...

Dark Force Incursion Expansions Launched to Quick Success

DFI came about through an unusual set of circumstances at a strange time, that I discuss in a previous post. But it was solid and reliable with a core set of rules and maps and could be download for free from my website. Yet, as if out of control, the game began to take on a life of its own in my mind. I imagined new land features, hex tiles, expansion rules and maps. I think that, for me, any creation is never truly complete, they just keep on growing, expanding, and ultimately opening new gaming choices.   Pretty quickly I set about writing the rules and drawing the land features for the new maps and expansions. It presented as a series of updates with new landscapes that would be interesting to experience in their own hex maps. This presented as four distinct expansions that would work nicely as pledge levels…yes, I began to think Kickstarter. I had established a presence on Board Game Geek and the free core rules were out there for people to play and they had. I w...
