Wilmington, Delaware, July, 2024 – The premiere lifestyle brand for tabletop games, Rollacrit (Rollacrit.com), is returning to Gen Con, August 1st through the 4th at the Indiana Convention Center, in a big way with BOTH the legendary Bag of Holding (and its individual accessories such as straps, zipper charms, etc.) and the Heroes of Barcadia tabletop game (with its unique Liquid-Life System ^TM gameplay) for purchase at the Rollacrit booth #3027. These were both launched through Kickstarter campaigns that were fully backed within hours, with each bringing in over $1 million in pledges.

Rollacrit’s Bag of Holding is a game-changer for tabletop enthusiasts. This innovative accessory combines functionality and style, offering gamers a spacious and durable bag to carry their precious gaming gear. It is the ultimate solution for organizing and protecting gaming essentials whether it’s dice, rulebooks, miniatures, or cards.

With stunning artwork, immersive storytelling, and strategic gameplay, Heroes of Barcadia is an entertaining addition to any gaming collection. Gen Con attendees will have the opportunity to demo the game, experience its captivating gameplay firsthand and purchase it at the event.
