"We wanted to create more than just a card game," said Diego Maldonado, creator of Genmodimals. "This project is about imagination, education, and storytelling. Our backers are not just funding a game - they are helping to build an entire universe."
The Kickstarter campaign offers several exclusive rewards for early supporters, including:
Booster packs with first-edition characters.
The collectible PromoPedia Magazine, featuring the taxonomy and powers of every Genmodimal.
A priority submission certificate for the community anthology.
Classroom kits designed for educators.
Oversized foam board trading cards for collectors.
A select group of higher-tier backers will also get a cameo card designed in their likeness to be included in first-generation card deck.
Genmodimals is designed for two styles of play. Casual Play or Battle Mode allows for quick, accessible matches, while LorePlay or World-Building Mode introduces deeper role-playing and debate-driven mechanics. An AI-powered game companion, GenmodAI, is already fully functioning, but in development to further enhance storytelling and interactive play.
The campaign emphasizes both entertainment and education, offering a way for families, classrooms, and hobbyists to engage in storytelling and STEM-inspired creativity.
