Raccoon. Sky. Pirates.
I just launched a new Kickstarter for Raccoon Sky Pirates, a TTRPG about chaos and trash.
I used to make a box set for this game. It was all black and white on copy paper, in a janky mailer box. It was beautiful.
It had a deck of 52 cards, a 12-sided raccoon die, a little rulebook, and 18 looseleaf sheets with characters and maps on them.
It let you play a whole misadventure in just 2 to 3 hours with no GM and up to six players. Which made it the perfect beer & pretzels game, not to mention a good gateway drug on-ramp for new RPGers.
But then I sold out of it, and people kept asking where they could find it, and that was kinda sad for lots of reasons. So, in the new Kickstarter, you can get it again.
But that's table stakes. The main show is a bigger, badder version of the game:
The Total Chaos Edition.
It has tons of components – most of them look like they were stolen from other games – so you can replay all you want without having to print new sheets. They add cool gameplay twists, they're built to last, and they're just fun to hold in your little raccoon mitts. Take a look:
Six raccoon dice, six custom bottle caps, three excessive & writable tabloid-size house maps by real live architects Brendan and Kate, 30 portrait cards by Robbi A Burns, 60 disaster cards with art by me and Strega Wolf Eden, hex tiles with art by Kata Kemi, and writable poker chips for all the loot you steal. And, like. A lot more. I dunno if you can zoom in on this photo, but. Things have gotten out of hand.
And the Kickstarter just launched!
Raccoon Sky Pirates is hilarious you guys. Ask anyone who's played the original. You can still do a whole misadventure in just 2 to 3 hours with no GM. It runs smoother now. All the components make it easy to visualize your raccoons – or possums – and their frantic shenanigans.
If you ever wanted to live inside a raccoon meme, this is the game for you.
Go to raccoonskypirates.com to back it now. As of this writing, the early-bird discount is still available.
Thanks for reading!
