It just goes to show how hungry everyone is for fantasy right now. That said, itвЂ™s remarkable for two projects to go off quite so big and so close to each other. They are Fria LiganвЂ™s new take on the Lord of the Rings rpg, The One Ring, 2nd Edition and a collection of taverns, taprooms, inns, and bars for use in your games of D&D 5E, or other fantasy adventure game.Д®arlier there was some critique from the community owing to the fact that these two big tent projects were surging when KickstarterвЂ™s ZineQuest, ostensibly meant to showcase Indie RPGs was also happening, but platforms like Kickstarter hope to show that thereвЂ™s not a limited pool of audience, and that the community can rally around many things. ItвЂ™s rare to see two projects popping off like that, but it helps highlight the wide audience that Kickstarter potentially reaches. Or todayвЂ™s Kickstarters, both of which have surpassed the million dollar mark. But a few projects have really hit new heights, like Matt ColvilleвЂ™s Strongholds & Followers book which raised millions of dollars. Kickstarter has been responsible for a boom in the RPG industry, providing a crowdfunded home for projects from the smallest Indie RPG, to nostalgia factory revamps of your favorites from years past like Old School D&D adventures or Worlds of Darkness. From Twisted Taverns to Magic rings, check em out!

Two Kickstarted RPGs have breached the million dollar mark and they are both ending this week.
