Crowdfunding isn’t just about raising funds — it’s about fostering a community. Peter Chiykowski and The Story Engine team launched The Story Engine: Lore Master’s Deck on BackerKit. With a commitment to delighting their fans and equipped with our community engagement tools, they held an interactive campaign that encouraged collaboration. The result? They showed that when you truly connect with your audience, they can become champions of your vision. The campaign raised over 6x its funding goal thanks to over 3,700 passionate backers.
