There are a lot of great prints, but what I&#8217;m most excited for is the coloring book. You can get the art and the book as either a PDF or a physical book. I really can&#8217;t wait to get my copy of &#8220;The Color Out of Space.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Mythos Monsters at its core is an art book full of my daily drawings, and features a few of my paintings. The book serves as an encyclopedia of Lovecraftian monsters full of notes and excerpts, along side the drawings and paintings. In the book you will also find a comprehensive list of Lovecraft stories, a two page description of my methods and materials used for this book and much more. I am working with an author (to be announced soon) for the forward and maybe more. The coloring book is a Kickstarter exclusive featuring a collection of images made available for coloring.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/zucati\/dice-base-2-vault-case-rolling-surface?ref=users\"><strong>Dice Base 2<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nThis is a great portable dice tray, and there is a lot of space for storing whatever you want to take with you to the gaming table. I like the spaces along the border to hold your dice, especially when you can mix up the rolled dice and dice just sitting in the tray pretty easily. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Ever wanted to take everything with you on gaming night, your pens, pencils, post-its dice, miniatures and extras? Now you can.  Made from solid Red Oak, industrial strength N52 magnets and durable thick leather the Dice Base 2 provides as little or as much capacity, convenience and security as you want. No matter what type of dice you use, metal, gem, plastic, acrylic, or even more exotic dice (like meteorite) the Dice base 2 is ready to organize and protect your gaming tools.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/2012515236\/dont-mess-with-cthulhu\"><strong>Don&#8217;t Mess with Cthulhu<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nFrom the company that brought us The Resistance and Coup we now have a great looking Cthulhu game. The art on the cards is a lot of fun, and it seems like it would be easy to pick up and great to play. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Indie Boards and Cards is very excited to be releasing our first game from Japan.  Yusuke Sato made waves in the international game market when he released TimeBomb at the Tokyo game market in 2015, and did it again when TimeBomb was the fastest game to sell out at Japon Brand booth in Essen. His deceptively simple game captured the essence of what I like in a design &#8211; rules that take only a few minutes to explain and mechanics that are so intuitive that you can almost miss the great fun and incredible mind games that are to follow. <\/p>\n<p>We wanted to make Don&#8217;t Mess with Cthulhu shine with a theme that is more approachable (no terrorist blowing up bombs), and we were very excited to work with fantastic artist Brandt Peters.  Brandt jumped into action with a whimsical take on Cthulhu that makes this game work for those that are completely engrossed into the mythos, and those that don&#8217;t know the great old ones.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/justinfarr\/meeple-mate-bottle-opener\"><strong>Meeple Mate Bottle Opener<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\nIf you&#8217;re going to be drinking while playing a board game, then you should get a bottle opener to match. This big meeple will help you get to your cool tasty beverage easily, and even makes sure the cap doesn&#8217;t skitter across the floor. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Introducing the Meeple Mate bottle opener. A sturdy, easy-to-use bottle opener for board game geeks, that\u2019s not only functional, but also amazing to behold!<\/p>\n<p>The Meeple Mate is laser cut from 14 gauge hot rolled steel, which is then de-burred, washed, and powder coated. Made in the USA. A super strong neodymium magnet is attached in just the right spot to snatch the cap as you open a bottle. This same magnet also makes it convenient to place the Meeple Mate on your refrigerator for quick access and beautiful decor!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>Still active!<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/montecookgames\/worlds-of-the-cypher-system\"><strong>Worlds of the Cypher System<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/191197566\/strongholds-fantasy-dice-citadels\"><strong>Dice Citadels<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1816687860\/sandy-petersens-cthulhu-mythos-for-pathfinder\"><strong>Cthulhu Mythos for Pathfinder<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/bigfootses\/drinking-dice-d20\"><strong>Drinking Dice d20<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/deevolutionstudios\/lil-cthluhu-you-cannot-win-only-hope-to-survive\"><strong>Lil&#8217; Cthulhu<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1037361623\/kult-divinity-lost-horror-roleplaying-game-rpg\"><strong>Kult: Divinity Lost<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/426473987\/littlest-lovecraft-the-horror-collection\"><strong>Littlest Lovecraft<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1637945166\/godbound-a-game-of-divine-heroes\"><strong>Godbound<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1398817948\/bullseye-d8-d4-damage-dice\"><strong>Bullseye Damage Dice<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/2085348754\/perils-of-mars\"><strong>Hollow Earth: Perils of Mars<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1152089861\/dice-rendezvous-with-randomness?ref=users\"><strong>Dice: Rendezvous with Randomness<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1861515217\/storypath-cards-narrative-accessory-for-any-tablet?ref=users\"><strong>Storypath Cards<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1295100784\/gods-and-icons-13th-age-and-d20-compatible?ref=users\"><strong>Gods and Icons<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1080999837\/singularity-2?ref=users\"><strong>Singularity<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1874304670\/prism-dice-handmade-from-bulletproof-glass?ref=users\"><strong>Prism Dice<\/strong><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1409961192\/judges-guild-deluxe-collectors-edition?ref=users\"><strong>Judges Guild<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There&#8217;s many interesting items to be found on Kickstarter, but these are the coolest ones this week.
