Fetch Quest - a deck-building game in the Realms of Pugmire
Created by Richard Thomas / Onyx Path Publishing
Fetch Quest is a family-friendly cooperative deck-building game. Each player represents a pioneer, one of six adventurous dogs on a dangerous quest. The pioneers work together to overcome dangerous challenges and resolve missions. Once the missions are resolved, the quest is finished and the players win the game.

September Fetch Quest Update from Eddy!

Greeting, good dogs and excellent cats!
Time for a Realms of Pugmire update, isn't it?
GEN CON
Gen Con was a lot of fun, as always. I demoed a lot of Pugmire and Fetch Quest, and the Wrecking Crew did their usual amazing job of running both Pugmire and Monarchies of Mau. Lots of people were eager to get their claws into Mau, too. And the wonderful Kevin Siembieda (designer of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles RPG) even asked for my autograph! Talk about an exciting time!
I also had a lot of meetings about potential new products. Nothing we can announce yet, but there was one thing we DID announce....
PIRATES OF PUGMIRE
Grab your scurvy seadogs and your cat cutlasses, it's time to sail the Acid Sea! That's right, I've started work on an outline for the next supplement for BOTH Pugmire and Monarchies of Mau! Pirates of Pugmire will feature a mini-chronicle of swashbuckling adventure. The book will also cover creating both dog and cat pirates, as well as other characters unaffiliated with either nation (such as lizards and birds). There will also be some rules and advice on exploration of the various lands over the Acid Sea.
Right now, I'm deep in sorting out what'll actually end up in the book, and talking over art styles with Rich, so everything's pretty murky at the moment. More details as I firm things up!
PROJECT STATUS
Here's the status of all the Pugmire-related projects we can talk about, drawn directly from our meeting notes on Monday!

SPEAKING OF THE APOCALYPSE
If you're into games that are a little more obviously post-apocalyptic than the Realms of Pugmire, check out our latest Kickstarter! Dystopia Rising: Evolution is another game I'm working on which is a lot more Mad Max and Walking Dead.
Here's a teaser:
No one knows how long it's been since the world was blasted with nuclear radiation and became infected with the undead. Major cities were all but destroyed; transit is reduced to animals, wagons, and the occasional iron horse. The survivors of the Fall were the first strain of deviation from the human condition and were able to make it through the rapidly spreading epidemic. Humanity has just started to rebuild, but large sections of the world are still irradiated or completely overrun by the undead. Small communities come together in a world where the concepts such as "democracy," "freedom," and "government" are newly reborn. Finding a community of decent size in this world is rare; finding one that has any concept of equality or morality is rarer still. Oh, and people have the unnerving ability to come back from the dead, regrown from the very virus that destroyed the world. This is dystopia. The world is broken. It is up to you to pick up the pieces and make a new world from the remains of the old.
If you're interested, go to the Kickstarter and learn more! We're already funded, so this is definitely going to happen, but we have some great stretch goals in mind!

Kickstarter Concierge
I'll end this update with a brief plug for the current Onyx Path kickstarter project I'm running, which has a tiny bit of an overlap with Fetch Quest and the Realms of Pugmire. Like Pugmire, it's sort of a different spin on a post-apocalyptic world with development overseen by Eddy Webb. But instead of uplifted dogs and cats searching for the artifacts of man, it's a mix of Mad Max and the Walking Dead with a dash of X-Men thrown in!
Dystopia Rising: Evolution includes all the rules you need to play as a survivor in the post-apocalypse, including rules for creating characters for up to 24 different Strains, variations on humanity that survived the Fall. It also has details on the powers of faith and psionics, along with advice on running action-adventure stories, webs of personal intrigue, or procedural investigations. And, finally, dozens of antagonists, including a variety of zombies and raiders to use in your series.
We've already achieved our funding goal and are on our way to unlocking our second stretch goal, which adds more content and rewards to backers! If that sounds interesting to you, and you'd like to help re-build society and forge new communities after the Fall, come check it out!
If you click on that link, you'll be able to purchase a 0% mark up shirt (that means, you're just paying the cost of manufacturing and shipping) to show off your Fetch Quest style. Also note that you can modify the color and shirt style, so you could possibly get a different shirt for time you walk your dog!
This price will run for a limited time only - from today until August 24th, so act quickly.
And, just a reminder to confirm your rewards in your BarkerKit survey, if you haven't done so already.
If you need to review your information or pledge status, you can return to your survey by clicking the link in your survey email or requesting your survey link under "Lost your survey?" on our BackerKit project page at https://fetch-quest.backerkit.com

KICKSTARTER CONCIERGE
One more quick note to remind you that I'm currently running Onyx Path's latest Kickstarter campaign - for the second edition of a game about second chances - Geist: The Sin-Eaters 2nd Edition.
THERE'S LESS THAN ONE WEEK LEFT for the Geist: The Sin-Eaters 2nd Edition Kickstarter and we’ve funded the project and achieved ten Stretch Goals so far! Thanks to all of our backers out there spreading the word! We are in good shape to be able to make a great looking hardcover edition, and get that into stores, even while we’re giving backers first look at the complete text and other fun benefits: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/200664283/geist-the-sin-eaters-2nd-edition
Geist: The Sin-Eaters 2nd Edition includes all the rules you need to play as one of the Bound: Five Burdens reflecting the cause that pulled you back from the grave, five krewe Archetypes for building your own mystery religion, and the Haunts, Keys, and Ceremonies that provide the Bound with their macabre powers.
It also includes the Chronicle of the Dead, featuring the Sin-Eaters’ struggle against the all-consuming Underworld and a variety of terrifying threats. In addition, for the first time in the Chronicles of Darkness line, ghosts are presented as playable characters.
Like I said, the game is already funded, and now we're working at unlocking Stretch Goals - including additional rules and setting material in a Companion book, Memento Mori. If you haven't already, come by and check us out and hopefully join in on the fun!
Realms of Pugmire Roundup - July 2018

Realms of Pugmire Update (July 2018) from Eddy Webb
My, how time flies. It feels like just yesterday that we were doing the Fetch Quest Kickstarter. Now, at the time I'm writing this, it's less than a week until Gen Con, so I'm whipping up a quick Realms of Pugmire update for you all!
As a reminder, now that we have three Kickstarters related to the Realms of Pugmire, I'll be doing my usual monthly updates for all three at once. If we have updates related to a specific Kickstarter campaign, you'll still see those separately.
[James' Note - there's another Fetch Quest update coming this afternoon - Backerkit surveys are ready to go out!]
GEN CON
For the past several years we've always had fun Realms of Pugmire stuff, and this year is no exception! There will be demos of Pugmire, Monarchies of Mau, and Fetch Quest, both at the booth [BOOTH 501] and by our talented demo team The Wrecking Crew. We'll also have a variety of Pugmire products for sale. And I'll be there to answer any questions you have about the games and talk about Mau and Fetch Quest as we're finishing them up. And if you can hit one of our What's Up with Onyx Path? panels, I may tell you about the NEXT Pugmire product....
FETCH QUEST
Now that things have calmed down a bit, I had a meeting with Mike Chaney, the art director, and we went over the last bits of art we need to switch out. We're also collecting information from the people who pledged to have custom pioneer cards made of their pets. It'll be a bit while that final art comes in, but once it does we'll send all the cards to an editor for last-minute corrections, and we'll be on our way.
MONARCHIES OF MAU
I just sent off the last proofing comments for the final Mau layout, now that all the art's in and we have an index. And it's looking amazing! There weren't many errata corrections, but I appreciate everyone who took the time to send those in. If you were a Mau backer at the appropriate level, you should be seeing a separate update soon with your final PDF. Then it's off to the printers!

Here's the status of all the Pugmire-related projects we can talk about, drawn directly from our meeting notes on Monday!
