History
Poema well protected, most innocent boy - never suffered at all, his life full of joy - then suddenly, like a lightenings strike - his whole life is changed, all done by a psyche - forced on a journey, so different each land - searching the wisdom, on making his stand - through adventures and dangers, both sad and profound - finding friends, also foes, even two of them crowned - is he steady and strong, is he witty and fast - will he travel those worlds, unbelievably vast - is he lucky enough, might he undo some wrong - is he seeing the ones, speaking only false tongue - dare to see this yourself, want to play with my game - only thing to be done is to back this campaign
Storyof pawns and kings is a strongly story focussed adventure game. protagonist Nik - nearly grown up ,17 years old, lives together with his grandpa Erasmus on an idyllic, tropical beach, nicely furnished in an old shipwreck. His father, mostly absent, only visits him a few times a year, so Nik was raised by his grandpa, a very friendly, but somehow crazy old man, Nik loves very very much. Nik doesn't know his mom at all. Except for rare dreams of a friendly woman, Nik doesn't have any memories of her at all. Nik, till today, lived a very protected life, mainly self-determined planning his days. This changes abruptly the moment a stranger appears, starting a heated discussion with Erasmus, which ends with the disappearance of both of them. Nik is forced to leave all he knows behind to find clues and sets on a journey to search for his grandpa. On this journey he will discover many surprising things about his family, he will be forced - fleeing a mysterious stranger - to find his way through many diverse scenarios, some of them beautiful, some more frightening. He will meet friendly, fascinating, but also unscrupulous characters. Most part of the journey he will be accomplished by a sassy and impertinent toucan -named Fitzgeraldo-, who to his surprise can talk ... Fitz intentions in helping Nik most of the time don't work like they should, though... We accompany Nik on his journey, experience him growing up fast, taking responsibility and coping with fear and prejudice. Will he be able to discover all secrets, will he find help and will he finally save the ones he loves the most ? The deeper Nik delves into the history of his family the more it will astonish him and lets him discover his own part in it. A marvelous adventure with many dangers and secrets begins …
