We’re live: Off the Beaten Path

Hey Timekeepers,

If you backed The Chronomancer’s Guide to the Future: Part II, thank you again. That project was all about expanding what’s possible in your game.

This time, we’ve focused on something smaller with Off the Beaten Path—but what it solves is just as important:

"What happens between the big moments?"

The Kickstarter is live — and it’s all built around a simple idea:
Travel shouldn’t be skipped. It should be where the story really happens.

👉 Back it here

It's already live on Kickstarter.

Instead of basic random encounter tables, this gives you something more:

  • 3 terrain books (Forests, Hills, Swamps)
  • 60 connected fleshed-out encounters
  • 9 new monsters
  • 6 quest paths that actually go somewhere

Each one is designed to:

  • Create meaningful decisions
  • Carry consequences forward
  • Connect into something bigger

So, the road doesn’t feel like empty space between sessions:

| It becomes the story.

👉 It’s live — back it here

If Chronomancer’s Guide expanded what’s possible in your game, this is built to make every step along that journey matter.

From Timelines… to the Journeys Between: Introducing Off the Beaten Path for D&D 5e & 5.5e

"Basic Travel in D&D… kind of sucks! But we can fix it!"
 

Hey everyone,

First, thank you again for backing The Chronomancer’s Guide to the Future: Part 2.

That project was all about expanding what your campaigns could be:
time travel, multiverse systems, and the tools to reshape entire timelines.

But while working on it (and running our own games), we kept running into a smaller, but very real, problem:

🧭 The journeys between those big multiversal moments

✔️You built timelines.
✔️You explored the multiverse.
❌The journey within those timelines still feels meaningful.

Travel within those timelines still often feels like:

  • A gap between major events
  • Random encounters that go nowhere
  • Or something skipped entirely

And that’s a problem, because those in-between moments are where a lot of the actual adventure happens.
 

What we built instead

Our next project, Off the Beaten Path, is built to fix that.

Introducing: Off the Beaten Path for D&D 5e/5.5e

At its core: Encounters that make travel meaningful; on their own, or as part of something bigger

Each encounter is designed to:

  • Work as a drop-in moment during travel
  • Or connect into a larger quest path if your players engage with it

So instead of travel being a gap between content…

It becomes the content.
 

Coming soon to Kickstarter

We’ll be launching Off the Beaten Path soon.

If you enjoyed The Chronomancer's Guide to the Future Part 2, this is one you won’t want to miss:

Following helps more than it seems: it gives the project momentum right out of the gate.

One last thing

A lot of this came from watching how people actually run their games, and where things tend to fall flat.

So genuinely, thank you again for travelling time and space with us.

We think this one’s going to hit a very real need at the table.

Hello Travellers!

I hope you've been loving your time travel adventures as much as we enjoyed making them. In other news though, WE ARE LIVE with an ALL-NEW TTRPG of our own design -- Road Rage!

Now funding on BackerKit!  Road Rage is all about kicking the tyres and lighting the fires to rip, roar, and rampage across an apocalyptic irradiated wasteland as a pack of mutant animals driving crazy war machines! It's TMNT meets Mad Max: Fury Road meets Mortal Engines!

Check out the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlvit7Hbxpc


After months of design, testing, and fine-tuning the Story Road Engine (SRE), we are so excited to finally bring you our world of burning highways, mutant road warriors, and fuel-soaked chaos. This game is built for high-action scenes, wild vehicle combat, and off-the-wall storytelling.
