Happy holidays!
It’s been a busy December, and we’ve made great progress on The Underlands Sandbox and the Dungeoneer Adventures RPG books. We’re super close to getting a PDF of The Underlands ready to share with you all for proofreading. While some art is still underway, all of the NPCs and maps are complete, and the text is nearly all laid out.
We’re also excited to announce a FREE Holiday Adventure Knaves in Toyland, now available on the official Land of Eem Patreon, accessible to all members, including free members of course! All you need to do is sign up for the free tier and you can download the adventure.
The adventure is set during the Land of Eem Holiday of Hearthlight–a cheery winter festival celebrated during the coldest months of the year. Except something is amiss
Anyway, it was tons of fun to create and it’s our way of saying thank you, and give something fun to run at the table as the year winds down. If you haven't joined the Patreon yet, this is the perfect time to hop in and grab the new seasonal adventure, it’s free!
Happy Holidays and see you next year!
The Eem Team
We’re incredibly grateful for this community. Your enthusiasm keeps us pushing forward to make these books the best they can be. We’re almost there and we can’t wait to put these worlds in your hands!
More updates soon and here’s to the holidays!
Happy Hearthlight Everyone!

Hello everyone!
A super quick update to let you know that we are starting the process to lock orders today. You will get a notice that you have 48 hours to make any adjustments before your order is locked. Then after 48 hours your card on file will be charged on Friday 12/5.
Addresses will not be locked until closer to fulfillment so you can change your address as needed*.
If you have any questions about your pledge or need help please reach out to us at [email protected].
(*Note some change of states or countries require assistance, so just partner with us and we can help you with that!)
Look out for an update early next week for some exciting news on the progress of the campaign rewards!
Thanks so much!
The EF Crew
Greetings Heroes of Eem!
We’re back with a new update to cover some housekeeping as well as show some progress on the books! We’ve been toiling away in our wizard towers on everything Eem and have been champing at the bit to share some progress. But first, the aforementioned housekeeping...
All physical reward tiers will get one pack of Dungeoneer Adventures Meeples because they were unlocked as a stretch goal. If you don’t see a line item for the Dungeoneer Adventures Meeples in your order, don’t worry. The meeples will be included inside every physical Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners RPG Box Set. If you backed another physical tier for the Underlands Sandbox, the meeples will appear as a line item in your order, and it will be packaged separately.
Didn’t grab a physical reward tier? You can still add a meeple set as an add-on, no problem!
There were some unexpected errors when the surveys were sent out that we would also like to clarify. The Adventures in the Mucklands PDF and The Mucklands Random Encounters PDFs were accidentally listed in everyone’s rewards, but this has since been corrected. The digital files were sent out in error, but that has been fixed, and all mistakenly distributed files have been removed from backers' downloads. We apologize for any confusion–there were some gremlins in the system! You will now see listed the Adventures in the Underlands PDF and The Underlands Random Encounters PDF (both of which are not complete yet).
You may have also briefly seen the Land of Eem Dungeon Synth digital album listed in your rewards, but that was not a reached stretch goal. However, it is available as an add-on! You can now check out a fantastic sample from Lamerak, one of the the talented artists working on the project. The music is fun and inspiring, and we’re excited for more!
For those who got the core Land of Eem game PDFs, we'll also be sending those out via drivethrurpg.com in the next few days, so keep an eye out for that if you use that platform.
The Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners RPG and The Underlands Sandbox are deep in layout, and we’ve made great progress. New art is underway, and we’ve also gone through the book and added a bunch more quests and NPCs to even out the layout. These are going to be beautiful books!
Feast your eyes on these brand-new spreads from The Underlands Sandbox, and the Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners RPG books.
The Underlands Sandbox
The Dungeoneer Adventures Rulebook
The Dungeoneer Academy Sandbox
We’ll be taking the rest of 2025 to finish the remaining art and layout of the new books! That means PDFs for the Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners Game and The Underlands Sandbox Setting should be on the horizon in early 2026 if all goes according to plan. And when you get your hands on them, we’ll definitely be calling on your support to pore through the books and terminate all the typos you can!
Thanks again for all your support, and apologies for any confusion from the back end. It's all cleared up, and we’re full steam ahead with finalizing the layout and making some great additions to the books.
Onward!
The Eem Team
Greetings, Adventurers!
The door to adventure just swung wide open—the BackerKit Pledge Manager will start going out to backers today! That means Late Pledges have officially ended, but now backers can jump in and take advantage of those sweet add-ons.
Dungeoneer Adventures Meeples
Set of 5 meeples, Ingrid the kobold, Daz the boggart, Coop the human, Oggie the bugbear, and Mindy the imp—perfect for both the Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners RPG and the Land of Eem core game.
Land of Eem Dungeon Synth Music Album
Available as both a cassette and digital album, this album by Fantasy Audio Magazine and Lamerak, is the perfect soundtrack companion for your game.
Dungeoneer Adventures Badges Sticker Sheets
Players can mark their earned Badges by decorating the back of their character sheet! This set comes with 4 sticker sheets, each with 13 Academy course badge stickers and a Land of Eem: Dungeoneer Adventures logo sticker.
Dungeoneer Adventures Beginners Game Dice Pack
The box set comes with a set of custom Dungeoneer Adventures d12 dice, but if you’d like to grab more for your players, we’re making this pack of two sets available.
We will not be collecting shipping fees at this time, but will be charging for shipping closer to fulfillment at a later date. We are doing this to ensure that shipping fees are as accurate as possible given the evolving factors affecting logistics. We expect fees to be similar to what we estimated during the campaign.
Once all surveys have been sent out we will also open the Pre-order Store. So if you have any friends that may have missed out on the campaign you can let them know they can snag a copy there! The link will be at the top of the Kickstarter page once it is open.
Stay tuned for an update next week when we’ll share progress on the layout of all the new books! Thank you all for your support and love for the game. Every day our amazing Discord community grows, and folks kick-off new games. We can’t wait to see everyone join in the fun and certainly can’t wait to hear about all your adventures.
Until next time!
Your pals,
Ben & James and the EF Crew
