Grax's Club and Contractor Corp are fully backwards compatible with 2014 - monsters haven't changed much and we don't need to reference specific character traits in adventures.

Both the 2014 version of Dark Matter and the 2024 version are available during this Kickstarter (hardcover, PDF, and VTT). Check the rewards and add-ons for details!
Both are designed with close parity to their Player's Handbooks, so they are as backward compatible as anything in the new ruleset.

(10/11) The Warmage class, which eschews leveled spells in favor of cantrip mastery, now deals guaranteed minimum damage whenever it casts a cantrip, and has a streamlined list of Tricks that alter the way you fight, move, and cast your spells.
January 9, 2026 at 10:32 PM
(9/11) The Warden class’s key features, such as its Guardian Tactics and Interrupt, have been expanded to make it utterly unique as a tank option. Moreover, its subclasses now have more diverse themes and more potent features.
January 9, 2026 at 10:32 PM
(8/11) The Necromancer class has new Undead Thralls and a reworked thrall progression. In addition, its spell list is greatly expanded.
January 9, 2026 at 10:32 PM
(7/11) The Martyr class has an expanded repertoire of new spells and is now more distinct from other divine spellcasters. Additionally, it can now sacrifice Hit Points to gain a bonus to any D20 Test.

(6/11) The Investigator class’s core features have been reworked, now focusing on Finisher from an early level, making it more dangerous and versatile. Uses of Trinkets, subclass-specific magic items for specialized monster hunting, are more streamlined.
January 9, 2026 at 10:32 PM
(5/11) The Gunslinger’s maneuvers are more dangerous than before and it can use more maneuvers each day. You can also play Captain subclasses in the Gunslinger chassis using the cross-compatibility rules on our website!

(4/11) The Craftsman class has transformed from one of the most overwhelming classes in Spire of Secrets to one of the sleekest. Its role as a crafter for the whole party has been expanded. Weapon masteries broadly replace exotic weapons and their bespoke properties.
January 9, 2026 at 10:32 PM
(3/11) The Captain class gains access to more and better combat Maneuvers, and its Cohort options are expanded. Cohorts now scale with class level, using the Captain’s Charisma as an important stat.
January 9, 2026 at 10:32 PM
(2/11) The Alchemist class preserves the 2014 outline, but each feature is updated. Bombs deal increased damage and are more formidable against groups. The Alchemist can brew more potions each day and brew more powerful ones, and Discoveries are entirely reworked and enhanced.
