5 Stretch Goals in 3 Days = 🤯
I can’t believe I woke up again this morning to find we’ve smashed through another stretch goal! The speed of this campaign is like nothing we've seen before.
Our record until now was the Map Library (Core Box), which raised £265,079 in a MONTH. We’ve just about smashed that already in 3 days! That’s wild. Thank you all so much for the incredible support!
Stretch Goal Hit!
The Quest Mega-Deck just got a major upgrade. It’ll now include 200 cards with instant quest hooks from One-Shot Wonders: Volume 1 and Volume 2, plus a stack of “DIY Quest” cards so you can add your own adventures to the quest board! Digital backers, you’ll also get a printable PDF version to customise at home.
Next Stretch Goal
If we unlock the next goal, we’ll be adding a brand-new Rural Chapter to Volume 2. This chapter will be packed with quests in farms, fields and meadows. Places that look peaceful… but definitely aren’t.
In Volume 1, some rural adventures were scattered in the Forest and Urban chapters – but with this stretch goal, we're going to dedicate a whole chapter to it! Forest now focuses on jungles, rainforests and woodlands; Rural covers farms, fields and meadows; Urban sharpens its focus on bustling towns and cities. This upgrade gives you richer, more distinct environments to play in.
Two More Things…
Map Library Expansion Pack
We’re adding one FINAL stretch goal, and it’s a big one. If we hit it, we’ll expand the Map Library Expansion Pack from 30 maps to 40! With the pace this Kickstarter has been blasting ahead, we think it’s absolutely possible, and we’d love to give you even more battle maps to explore.
But, we'll only get there with your support! Please keep sharing the campaign with your DnD parties and friends. Here's a link you can use: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/rollandplaypress/one-shot-wonders-volume-2?ref=14xb3s
2 Shot 2 Wondrous
Also, to celebrate how incredibly well this campaign has done so far, we’re boosting 2 Shot 2 Wondrous, our early backer reward! It now comes with a brand-new commissioned map designed for high-speed street racing through a fantasy city. And here’s the best bit, everyone who’s backed so far counts as an early backer, so you’re all getting the upgrade. Digital backers will receive the downloadable map alongside the PDF adventure, and physical backers will get a fold-out dry-erase map packaged with the adventure booklet.
Did You Know?
Tomorrow marks the 3rd anniversary of One-Shot Wonders: Volume 1 launching on Kickstarter. Wouldn’t it be amazing to celebrate by smashing through 3,000 backers? Let’s see if we can do it! 🎉
Speak soon,

IT'S ONLY DAY TWO!
It's genuinely surreal to be writing this less than 48 hours into the campaign... but here we are! Another stretch goal has been unlocked, and we are racing towards the next!!
We've also already flown past the total amount that One-Shot Wonders Vol. 1 raised on Kickstarter, which is wild.
Stretch Goal Hit!
Planar maps will now be in the book and Map Library Expansion Pack! These will be the perfect companion to the adventures in the Fey Realm and Shadow Realm chapters of the book. I can't wait to start commissioning these weird and wonderful environments.
So we've hit all our stretch goals in the first 48 hours... you know what that means? WE NEED SOME MORE!
Next Stretch Goal
For the next stretch goal, we're going to give the Quest Mega-Deck a boost!
Currently, this MASSIVE deck has 200 cards of instant quest hooks linked to the adventures in One-Shot Wonders: Vol. 1 and Vol. 2.
- It’s a new way to use the quests from One-Shot Wonders Vol. 1 and Vol. 2. They're designed so you can lay them out like a quest board that your players can pick from, without any spoilers.
- On the back of the card, there's a short GM adventure summary, plus page references to help you find the full one-shot in the book and battle map from the map libraries.
If we unlock the next stretch goal, we'll be adding "DIY Quest" cards to the box, so you can write your own quests on the quest board! You'll be able to throw in details from your own campaign, like familiar NPCs and locations, to fully tailor what your players see.
Using these cards is such a cool way to make your fantasy world feel big and bursting with opportunities. Your players get to feel in control, while you know you've got every adventure prepped and ready to go.
Digital Quest Mega-Deck Add-on
A few backers let us know that the digital files of the Quest Mega-Deck weren't available as an add-on. Well spotted! We've fixed this issue, so you should see them as an option now.
If you'd like to add the Quest Mega-Deck digital files to your pledge, head to the One-Shot Wonders: Volume 2 campaign page, click "Manage My Pledge", then select the add-on when prompted.
If you have any questions, drop us a comment or email, and we'll be happy to help!

Third Stretch Goal Unlocked! Project We Love!!

YOU DID IT AGAIN!
I can't believe we're less than 24 hours into the campaign, and we've already flown past £150k in funding and unlocked THREE(!!!) stretch goals.
There's already almost 2,000 of you pledging to support this project, which is unreal. I can't tell you how much the whole team appreciate your support. Your energy and enthusiasm makes us even more excited to bring One-Shot Wonders Vol. 2 to your gaming table! Let's do this!
Stretch Goal Unlocked
Hitting our third stretch goal means we'll expand the number of indexes in the back of the book, to include a level index as well as tools for searching by theme, objective and monster type. From chatting to you all at conventions, we know this is something that GMs will find super helpful.
Next Stretch Goal
If we unlock this stretch goal, we'll be commissioning some AWESOME planar maps of the Fey Realm and Shadow Realm to set your adventures in, and wow your players with.
With One-Shot Wonders: Volume 2, we’re venturing into the planes for the first time! Alongside the campaign setting of Mirabilis from Volume 1, you’ll now get lore and fully illustrated regional maps for the Fey Realm and Shadow Realm. Use these maps if you're running games in the Mirabilis campaign setting, or your own homebrew settings.
To give you a flavour, here's the regional map of Mirabilis we commissioned for One-Shot Wonders: Volume 1:
I have the Mirabilis map hung in my office, so I can't wait to add these maps next to it!
The planar maps will be printed in the back of One-Shot Wonders: Volume 2, alongside lore about the Shadow Realm and Fey Realm. They'll also become part of the Map Library Expansion Pack, so anyone who has pledged for either of those rewards (physical or digital) will get to enjoy this stretch goal.
Project We Love
In the excitement yesterday, we also got given the Kickstarter "Project We Love" seal of approval! It's always so nice to be recognised alongside other awesome creators. If this is how you find the project, give us a wave in the comments!
Right, I'm off to start planning out another one-shot for the book. If you need me, I'll be in the Shadow Realm...
Sam.
