Developer KING Art Games announces comedy adventure The Book of Unwritten Tales 2, which will begin releasing next year at the beginning of 2015. Nordic Games has funded the sequel.
However, KING Art would like a lot more; ”more epic, more shiny” and more input from the community. It’s for this reason they’ve taken to Kickstarter with big stretch goal plans.
The studio is asking for $65k to achieve success, but if fans of The Book of Unwritten Tales want more then there are goals for side quests, outfits, blogs, orchestra, and more.
Should the community flood the Kickstarter with cash and get to $235k then a Director’s Cut will be developed, promising more animations, facial expressions and a lot more camera angle range. KING Art has compiled a features list they believe is essential for The Book of Unwritten Tales 2:
▪ A fantasy adventure story with about 20 hours of pointing and clicking
▪ The trademark BoUT-humor, lovingly spoofing WoW, LotR, Game of Thrones, Harry Potter, Discworld, D&D, The Hobbit and many more
▪ Hundreds of weird, yet oddly logical puzzles and our well-proven “Multi-Character-Gameplay”
▪ The established four playable characters Wilbur, Nate, Ivo und Critter
▪ Numerous beautiful locations, improved through today’s computer alchemy - and your pledge! (see Goals - Projection Mapping)
▪ An ensemble of quirky characters, both well-established and hot off the drawing board
▪ An epic soundtrack with many new compositions
