It can be done, but it's tough and requires a lot of luck.' Fantastic Books Gaming is the brand new division of East Yorkshire publishing house, Fantastic Books Publishing. They have long been established as a leading publisher of books-of-the- A crowdfunding campaign to fund the retail release of the game has been live since 1st March on Kickstarter and will run for 1 month.
