Infinite Realms Kickstarter funded
With the successful completion of our Kickstarter campaign, an exciting and intense time has come to an end. The 30 days during the campaign started with checking the activities over night in the morning and ended with checking in the evening before going to bed to see if anything important had happened. And in between there was a lot of fever, comments and questions answered and the advertising drum was beaten.

Today I’ll show you how to enhance your tabletop RPG experience using Infinite Realms with immersive and handy tools for your classic 2D maps, animated video maps and our all-new ultra-flexible 3d maps!

As a Dungeon Master for over 30 years, I’ve been faced with the same question over and over again: how do I provide my players with the most engaging experience at the table? In the absence of suitable media, the answer used to be quite simple. There might have been a self-drawn map or one that came with an adventure. Otherwise, it was all based on the narrative talent of the Dungeon Master and the imagination of the players. This should be essentially the same today, of course - but to get everyone on the same page, handouts and, especially in battles, the most detailed possible representation of the situation on the map are worth their weight in gold! Not to mention that atmospheric images and a musical background can work wonders if they are used skillfully.

Covid and RPG Tabletop

Today I am going to tell you how the Covid Pandemic changed our hobby, what we experienced and the good and bad experiences of having a pastime that you share with multiple people while not being allowed to meet people.

Like it was in the past

In the time before Pandemic, I had several groups with Danny in which we played Dungeons and Dragons with different people in different campaigns. Among other things, the group we first met in years ago still exists. On average we were in 4 to 5 active groups in the last years, which met once a month to once every two months. In the most active times, there was at least one day of gaming every weekend of the month. This was a great time to spend many great moments with our friends. Most of the time we invited everyone to our house because we had a lot of space and a big table.

Welcome to Infinite Realms

Every roleplayer knows that it can be very tedious to draw every single battlemap by hand when using analog maps. Draw it on dry-erase, play the map, wipe everything away again and draw a new battlemap. In the long run it’s really exhausting. And the best part is that half of the map smudges when you move the tiles on it. It’s nerve-wracking and very unattractive - and it takes a lot of imagination to make sense out of this drawn map.
