Take on the profession of a Maverick: a grizzled bounty hunter who rides out beyond the bounds of civilization with nothin’ but a big iron on their hip.

A pair of crossed revolvers.

Your job: hunt down and slay monsters spawned by the mysterious, ever-present force, known simply as “The Wyrd”. Its chaotic energies twist and corrupt everything in its wake, making a rough life all the more uncertain. But the form you take, the weapons you wield, and the monsters you slay are up to you.

Huckleberry is a bespoke, fast-paced western horror TTRPG that can be learned in 20 minutes. This “Hellboy” meets “Tombstone” game is always fast, always cinematic, and always a wild ride! The BackerKit campaign, which launched on October 7th and ends November 4th, brings the previously digital-only game to print for the first time.

An outfit of Mavericks. From left to right: A man with ghoulish skin, a leech for a tongue, and leeches for hair is wielding two long knives and wearing a bloody butcher's apron. An Indigenous woman wears buckskin with fringe that lifts up as she levitates- fire emanates from both arms. A minotaur-like man kneels in front holding a tomahawk. Instead of a bull, his head is that of a American Bison. A devilish gunslinger wearing a wide-brimmed hat wields two pistols, his eyes aglow. A vaudevillian strongwoman has a metallic, cyborg-like arm and matching leg. They stand atop a small hill with a night sky and full moon behind them. Mesas and rundown shacks can be seen in the distance.

Avoid tracking tedious details with Huckleberry. Mechanics linger in the background as the thrilling narrative takes center stage, allowing players to live as daring, tough-as-nails heroes who rise… or fall… with every big moment. Asymmetric and player-facing mechanics enables snappy gameplay for both small and large groups, with a minimum of two players (One Maverick and one Trailboss) needed.

Mockups of Huckleberry's two books with the Aces from Huckleberry's playing cards are overlaid on an image of an abandoned saloon. At the bottom is a trap door with a gargantuan spider looking out from the shadows beneath, waiting to grab anyone who walks by.

Huckleberry’s print edition is receiving the deluxe treatment with a linen and foil-stamped cover, along with masterful artwork by George Sellas and layout by the equally talented Nathan D. Paoletta. This is a book that looks beautiful on both your shelf and your table. The campaign also offers unique rewards like illustrated playing cards, exclusive dice sets, and a Huckleberry-themed All Rolled Up dice bag.
