This is looking so interesting! But Now I am wondering on joining Crescent Moon and Exiles for a Mirror-Worlds kind of game! How would you go about it? Any tips and advice?

Oh that sounds like a fun discussion Gabe :) You could go about it several ways depending on what you want to get out of it I'm guessing; feel free to hop onto the discord and we can chat about it sometime - find it easier than through comments.

Will do!!!

Hi Ema!  Thanks for making this available.  I backed the KS and very excited to see the finished product.

I noticed a few typographical errors in the the playkit which I can email you about if you want to get 'em fixed.  Obviously no worries if not LOL

Hey Taybi, thank you for your kind words and for asking. I actually prefer to handle all typos in the editing process with my editor, so no need to worry about it :-)

Hey, no problem at all. Thanks again!

Hi Ema. If I order the $20,00 Digital Bundle, will I missing something? Or do I get all the practical things that I could use for my games?

Ie. I see that included there's the main book Crescent Moon and Exiles expansion. Will I miss any kind of limited edition "playbook", "expansion"  etc. included in the original KickStarter?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: another couple of questions:

  • I'm not sure if Exiles (PDF/book) is fully standalone. I saw it described both as "standalone" and "expansion", so I'd like to be sure about it. If I only want to play campaigns based on that setting, am I ok with just that book, or do I still need Crescent Moon book for some of the rules / tables / hints and tip etc.?
  • Is the revised version of the initial Crescent Moon book ready? Ie. If I order today the book, will I receive the revised one? Never mind, I see now that's a "second printing", not a "revised version" :)

Hi Andrea, to answer your questions:

1. By ordering the Digital Bundle on Backerkit, you get everything that will eventually be released here on itch. The only difference is the discounted price ($20 for both games instead of the $30 or so they'll cost together once published).

2. Pardon the confusion regarding EXILES' status. The game is currently going through a bit of a rebranding ๐Ÿ˜† This will be clearer in the future, but in summary: Though it was originally conceived as an expansion (and this free playkit omits certain details as it assumes familiarity with Crescent Moon) , the final release will be standalone. You may get some added context from reading Crescent, and there's some compatibility in terms of material (NPCs, backgrounds, items, etc). But all you need to play and understand EXILES will be included in the final release.

3. The revised edition of Crescent Moon hasn't been worked on yet. It will come out alongside the full release of EXILES both physically and digitally. If you end up ordering the digital bundle, you can email me at ema @ pocketcompass . co to access the PDF for the first edition for free, though! 1e and 2e differ in presentation and some rules, but they're about the same game otherwise.

Hope that answers your questions. Let me know if there's anything else you'd like clarification on. ๐Ÿ™‚

Ok, so, just to be sure, if I order both the physical books (50$), I'll receive them in a single shipping when the revised edition of Crescent Moon will be ready. Both the books will be at their most up-to-date version. Correct?

Do you have an estimated time of arrival (even if it's not precise, do not worry) for the project?

That's right! I'm aiming to have the project shipped within the next 12 months, but that is contingent on many factors. "It'll be done when it's ready" is the current mindset. Once the timeline turns more concrete I'll be letting everyone know the Backerkit is about to close though (on KS, my newsletter, this page, etc). ๐Ÿ™Œ
