Manuel Schenk, the developer behind the Nelson and the Magic Cauldron adventures, has successfully funded his next project on Kickstarter. Magic Cauldron: Forgotten Island reached its goal on October 4 with 3,082 euros from 49 backers.
Forgotten Island is a spin-off of the series and a turn-based deckbuilding adventure with point-and-click elements and hand-drawn comic graphics. Nelson is asked for help by the undertaker and accidentally discovers an ancient secret. Together with his friends he sets out to find the forgotten island and faces his most evil adversary: Captain Coleslaw. The game tells a standalone story, so you do not need to know the earlier adventures.
Late pledges are still possible on Kickstarter, and a demo for Windows, macOS and Linux is available on itch.io. Congratulations, Manuel!
