Notorious: Tales of Hardscrabble Bounty Hunting

Update 03: new stretch goal, shipping reduced for CAN/AUS
10 months ago – Mon, Oct 27, 2025 at 09:48:57 AM

Hey everyone,

We've now hit the £50k stretch goal, unlocking six new illustrated portraits!

New stretch goal

We've already doubled the number of class cards in a previous stretch goal, so now it makes a lot of sense to try and double the number of background cards from six to twelve.

Background cards also come with a unique illustration and are paired up with class cards to create your Nomad. Each comes with a choice of two paths, altering your character's history and skills.

Having twelve of each type of card would means there's a ton of possible combinations for you to explore!

Importantly, each background card also comes with a unique consequence card, which are events that may appear at any time. So really, this stretch goal is to add twelve new cards!

These six new background cards (and six linked consequence cards) will be unlocked if we hit £60k during the campaign.

Reduced shipping to Canada and Australia

Some of you may have noticed that we've lowered the shipping estimates for Canada and Australia. The new prices are available on the campaign page if you're thinking of upgrading.

You can also add a second copy of the boxed game as an addon if you live in either of these countries! It will likely increase the cost of shipping by around 1/3rd (maybe less, but a conservative estimate).

We've had conversations with a few fulfillment companies in these countries and agreed to go ahead with local distribution for this Kickstarter and also any future retail sales.

---------- 

We're about halfway through the campaign now! Thanks again for your support :)

Update 02: new target acquired

Hey everyone,

I'm very pleased to say we've hit our first stretch goal of £40k and have now unlocked six new illustrated class cards. The classes will be a nice mix of new takes on some of the originals from the Notorious/Outsiders books, plus a bunch of brand new ones.

The next goal will be to add six more portraits to the game, raising the total from 18 to 24. We'll be able to add these if we hit £50k.

Portraits are used to help bring all the characters in your game to life; you'll pair them up with your Nomad, target and any allies you recruit. We'd love to add more of these as a future stretch goal, if possible...

As always, thanks for backing us and let's see how we get on as we head into the second week of the campaign!

Update 01: Fully funded and a first stretch goal!

Hey everyone,

It's been an incredible first few days of this campaign and I'm excited to say that Notorious: Tales of Hardscrabble Bounty Hunting is now fully funded!

There's so much to look forward to as we work our way through the huge amount of artwork and writing that will go into the base game.

For example, did you know we'll have our own in-universe cash (known as credits) illustrated on cards for you to earn and spend on your adventures? We'll have plenty to reveal in future updates now we know it's all possible! 

But there's more things we'd love to add, which leads me on to...

Our first stretch goal will be to double the number of Class cards in the game from six to twelve! 

Each Class card comes with a unique illustration by Torben and significantly changes up how you might approach challenges you'll face in the game.

We'll add these extra cards if we hit £40k during the campaign, with more potential stretch goals to be announced later if we exceed that figure.

Thanks again for your early support—it means a lot and we're excited to keep working on Notorious: Tales of Hardscrabble Bounty Hunting!
