I'll keep it brief. Grimoire, Best RPG of 1996, is now at Indiegogo: http://www.indiegogo.com/grimoireforever

The Ultimate Retro Old School Computer Fantasy Roleplaying Game in Development For More Than 17 Years Is Now Approaching Completion!!!

​

If the above video has not yet convinced you (not) to pledge, and if you have no idea who Cleveland M. Blakemore is, be sure to check out this thread for Cleve's posts before you even consider pledging. Long story short, this game and the man behind it have long been a part of the RPG Codex lore.

For what it's worth, $25 is supposed to get you a digital copy of the game, and the promised release date is May 2013.

That right there is the best pledge video ever made.

[villain of the story]

Uh, Cleveland Mark Blakemore:

Release the game in May, 2012

You might want to add a notation to the video. It's at 8:53 mark.

Yes Cleve, you're that madman! FOR CODEXIA!

Achievement of Funding Goals :

1. New music score & sound effects
2. Additional animation sequences to enhance all aspects of gameplay
3. Possible ports to IOS, Linux, IPad and Android platforms
4. Work begins immediately on sequel after release

At least I'll have something still NEW and oldschool to play when I'll hit 50 in 20 years.

This could be one of the most awesome things happening in the history of mankind.

 

[Wizfall]

If this game is real i would love to play it.

Up to this point I've thought that Cleve is just a giant troll. Now I'm pretty sure that he really is crazy.

He also needs to get a better microphone.

Posting in an epic thread. I dedicate my 1000th post to Mr. Cleveland Mark Blakemore.

For all the untermensch haters:

 

[Hobo Elf]

The sales pitch video sunk into new depths of insanity.

 

[Ogg]

This could be one of the most awesome things happening in the history of mankind.

I guess that when writing "awesome", you're being literal. For Grimoire will bring awe, fear and reverence upon this godless world.

 

[Davaris]

Best pitch I've seen so far.

I was a little surprised I didn't see any oldschool RPG by brenda & tom bashing. not even a jab. classy cleve.

 

[Hobo Elf]

Vault Dweller, I expect you to help a fellow vaporware merchant out.

250 000 might be a bit much for a relatively niche game. Will pledge though, and I hope this succeeds.
