The Kickstarter campaign to secure funds for voice actors, art, and to translate the game into other languages starts on February 11th, and you will get a special Valentine discount on the first 5 days. Rewards will include the Royal game or Ur (The oldest board game in history), some Mesopotamian artifacts, the art book for the game, bringing YOU in the game, and the emotional story puzzle book, My Father Promised, which is like a DLC in a book.
