Games like Pokémon, Yu-Gi-Oh, and Digimon started out as card games, and then made the transition to the medium of video games. These games, in whatever format, have been enjoyed by millions and acted as a gateway for many to the amazing world of roleplaying games, both digital and tabletop. Now there is a company looking to bring the two genres even closer together. Late Knight Games (not to be confused with the unrelated and defunct blog by the same name) has recently launched a KickStarter campaign to produce a tabletop roleplaying game that’s all about catching the monsters – MajiMonsters: Monster-Catching Tabletop Role-Playing Game.
I recently got to ask the good people at Late Knight Games about their exciting new project, and where they hoped to see it go.
