Community-Powered Storytelling Meets Collectible Gameplay in a New Sci-Fi Universe

ELLICOTT CITY, MARYLAND / ACCESS Newswire / September 9, 2025 / Genmodimals, a new trading card game that combines sci-fi storytelling, collectible play, and community creativity, is in the pre-launch phase on Kickstarter. Unlike traditional TCGs, Genmodimals invites players of all ages to help shape the game's evolving lore. Contributors , whether children, educators or professionals, can submit stories that become part of an official printed anthology, giving backers the rare opportunity to expand the game's canon alongside its creators.

"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.

A companion white paper is also available, outlining how collectible play and imaginative storytelling can support learning, creativity, and classroom engagement.
