Get ready for a unique gaming experience as the award-winning game designer momatoes collaborates with Italian publisher NessunDove to bring an enchanting new Kickstarter campaign. “The Magus & The Oracle: Solo RPG and Inspiration Deck” is set to launch on February 1, 2024, promising a blend of immersive storytelling and creative gameplay.
The highlight of the campaign is the first-ever English print edition of “The Magus,” a solo RPG that explores themes of “pathos, calamity, and the infinite loneliness of power”. This game is not just about amassing power; it’s a journey of a magus striving for greatness, but at the cost of personal sacrifices. The digital version of The Magus has already captivated players on Itch.io, garnering over 25,000 downloads and a flawless 5-star rating from 85 reviewers. Players have lauded its unique narrative mechanics and its ability to weave deeply emotional and unforgettable stories.
But that’s not all. The Kickstarter campaign will also introduce “The Oracle,” a 78-card deck brimming with beautiful illustrations by momatoes. These cards aren’t just visually appealing; they come with a range of prompts on names, bonds, and moods. Versatile in its use, The Oracle can enhance gameplay in The Magus, other momatoes games, or even any tabletop game. Touted as an “inspiration deck,” it’s designed to ignite creativity in journaling games, campaign planning, or even during live game sessions.
With a funding goal set at €7000, “The Magus & The Oracle” offers various reward tiers, including both digital and physical versions of the solo RPG and the inspiration deck.
