One More Page Turns Writing a Book Into a Cosy Card Game

Anyone who has tried to get something done while a pet stares them down will understand One More Page at a glance. This cosy little card game asks you to finish your masterpiece before Bō, your attention-hungry companion, gets the zoomies. Gamers have clearly felt seen: a project that asked for just $3,108 has pulled in more than $68,000 (around £54,000) from 971 backers.

From creator Mithrasa, One More Page is billed as part push-your-luck card game and part solo journaling RPG. You press your luck writing as many pages as you dare, banking your progress before the chaos (namely Bō) undoes your hard work. It is a gentle, low-stakes premise, and the kind of thing that works equally well as a quiet solo wind-down or a light filler at the table.

That funding haul, comfortably past 2,200 per cent of the original target, is the sort of runaway result that usually points to a premise people genuinely connect with rather than a flashy miniatures pitch. It is a tiny ask turned breakout, carried by charm rather than plastic.

Stop juggling Meetup, WhatsApp, and spreadsheets. One platform for your gaming group's events, RSVPs, and member management.
