Dungeon Scratchers

Welcome and good tidings experienced explorers, ambitious adventurers, and grizzled game-masters! Are you tough as a Treeant? Do you rise in the face of uncertainty and bask in the glory of chance? Will you chase success above all else? If your answer was yes to any of those – you’ve come to the right Kickstarter:

Dungeon Scratchers TTRPG Supplement for D&D 5e!

WHAT ARE DUNGEONS SCRATCHERS?

Dungeon Scratchers are entire TTRPG one-shots delivered via a scratch-ticket. Each scratch-dungeon is a unique dungeon crawl featuring:

A (@@Physical Size Needed Here) 10x10 dungeon grid, just waiting to be unveiled by brave adventurers.

5 quests to be explored, each with dopamine inducing rewards.

10 combats featuring 50+ custom creatures with system agnostic stat blocks.

5 positively perplexing puzzles, each rewarding players with precious treasure

10 traps perfect for tripping up even the tricksy-est characters

A proprietary merchant where characters can sell unwanted items and purchase equipment that better suits their adventuring style

Gambling systems where players can choose to risk it all, gaining and losing vast fortunes along the way.

And so, so much more…

Dungeon scratchers come in a pack of 10 unique dungeon experiences, meaning 1000 scratch-off rooms to be explored! These full-color scratch off dungeon tickets are system agnostic (but fully compatible with Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition!), and contain everything you need for an entire evening’s adventure. The quests, combats, treasures, puzzles, traps, rules and module details are all conveniently accessed through a QR code and URL on the back of each Dungeon Scratcher.

WHAT IS THE DUNGEON SCRATCHER EXPERIENCE
Imagine the high-stakes, adrenaline pumping fun of big-ticket gambling combined with the pulse pounding excitement of dungeon crawling. Dungeon Scratchers are a thrilling mix of comedy, challenge, and chance, making them a must-have for all players with a penchant for risk, or GMs who want an easily run but exhilarating one-shot at a moment’s notice.

HOW FAR ALONG IS DEVELOPMENT?
Dungeon Scratchers are already fully designed and completely written! Once this Kickstarter campaign ends, a batch of Dungeon Scratchers will immediately enter manufacturing, after which they’ll be fulfilled.

Printing is scheduled to begin in early May, with fulfilment starting by the beginning of August. This makes Dungeons Scratchers the perfect gift for Christmas!

ABOUT THE CREATORS

Rough Magic Games - In 2019, Rough Magic was founded with one mission: to help those who wanted to play tabletop role-playing games but lacked the time to take on the role of a Game Master. Co-Owners, Tara Bouldrey, Michael Danovich and Christian Stokes have fostered a company that offers a wide variety of in-person and online game options. Today Rough Magic’s team is thrilled to help players of all experience levels and from all over the country collaboratively create exciting adventures and forge unique bonds of friendship that will last for a lifetime. 

FoxWing Games - FoxWing Games co-founders Austin Hartell and Michael Paylor believe in the power of games to build community and bring people together. Their debut product, Quest Chest, launched in 2024 with Stone Oaths and Golden Lies, followed by a highly successful Kickstarter campaign for five new immersive TTRPG modules containing an entire campaign in a box with immersive physical props – The Campaign Chest. Their products have been endorsed by Aabria Iyengar, Elisa Teague, Amy Vorphal, Xander Jeanneret, and more luminaries of the gaming industry. Individually, Austin Hartell is better known as Dungeon Artist, and Michael Paylor is one of the co-founders of Bookwyrm Games and the Cascadia Tabletop Collective which films TTRPG and game content in Vancouver, BC.

Braeden Clements - Braeden is a highly experienced & passionate Producer, Writer, and Indie Game Designer Local to Chicago Illinois. Having graduated from DePaul University in 2024 with a degree in Game Design; Braeden has worked since designing TTRPG Systems and Modules in addition to running both Public and Private Tabletop Games for clients. Braeden originally wrote and designed the vast whole of Dungeon Scratchers as a supplemental mechanic for a different project entirely - being inspired simply from watching an older gentleman scratch feverishly at a Scratch-Off Ticket at his local 7/11. However - seeing its potential, he took a chance and pitched it to Rough Magic & Foxwing Games for production and stewardship. The rest is history.
