ミニチュア・ウォーゲーム『Trench Crusade』は、2024年のKickstarterで66,666ドルの目標を大幅に上回る300万ドルを調達して以来、大きな成長を遂げている。Factory Fortress Inc.の開発者は、誓約の履行という課題に対処しつつ、新しいプラスチック製ミニチュアとサードパーティのサポートでゲームを拡大し続けている。この回顧録は、高いファン需要の中でゲームの起源と進行中の進化を強調している。
Trench Crusadeは、コンセプトアーティストMike Franchinaの、地獄との永遠の戦争状態にある代替地球のビジョンから生まれ、ディーゼルパンク技術、宗教的アイコン、ボディホラーを融合させている。Franchinaはこの設定を、ビデオゲーム業界の仕事には不適切なアートワークのためのものとして作り上げ、「fucked up religious freaks」の領域だと表現した。
