00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.511
Dwarves are known for their combative and fearless nature.

00:00:04.828 --> 00:00:09.044
Even when outnumbered 100 to 1 they won’t ever think of giving up.

00:00:09.112 --> 00:00:15.570
They’ll use all of their skills, tactical options of their environment and clever combos to resist their enemies.

00:00:16.457 --> 00:00:22.774
In most role-playing games they play only a supporting role, and you barely learn anything about their culture and history.

00:00:22.818 --> 00:00:25.777
We think they deserve to be in the spotlight for a change.

00:00:26.077 --> 00:00:30.234
And that’s exactly what they do in our tactical RPG „The Dwarves“.

00:00:35.417 --> 00:00:38.628
“The Dwarves” is based on the same-titled bestselling novel.

00:00:38.688 --> 00:00:42.886
Our protagonist Tungdil explores “Girdlegard” with an ever-growing group of companions,

00:00:42.917 --> 00:00:48.853
while fighting against overwhelming threats and learning all about the different dwarven kingdoms.

00:00:49.606 --> 00:00:55.240
In the epic battles our heroes are always outnumbered and victory depends on your clever leadership.

00:00:55.698 --> 00:01:00.878
Enemies have a flocking behavior and accordingly react to your actions and the environment.

00:01:00.926 --> 00:01:05.894
Our goal was a tactically challenging combat system that is lots of fun and hasn’t been done before.

00:01:05.927 --> 00:01:10.507
We’ve put a lot of work into it and can’t wait for you to try it out yourselves!

00:01:15.712 --> 00:01:24.480
We at KING Art Games are huge roleplaying game fans and are glad that tactical RPGs that appeal to heart and brain have staged a comeback on Kickstarter over the last years.

00:01:24.938 --> 00:01:29.203
We’re working hard at making “The Dwarves” a part of this Renaissance!

00:01:30.328 --> 00:01:37.802
Our previous two Kickstarter campaigns for the turn-based strategy game „Battle Worlds: Kronos“ and the fantasy point-and-click adventure „The Book of Unwritten Tales 2“

00:01:37.846 --> 00:01:43.837
were a great experience for us, and judging by the feedback, also for you.

00:01:47.462 --> 00:01:49.462
This is our plan:

00:01:49.537 --> 00:01:54.242
We’re developing “The Dwarves” for PC, PS4 and Xbox One

00:01:54.647 --> 00:02:00.251
It will feature a gripping main story based on the novel, as well as numerous new side quests

00:02:00.465 --> 00:02:04.182
There will be about 15 playable characters, each with distinct skills

00:02:04.337 --> 00:02:06.426
There will also be dozens of enemy types

00:02:06.456 --> 00:02:11.336
as well as a large world map with lots of battle arenas and places waiting to be discovered

00:02:11.788 --> 00:02:17.229
The heart of our game is the innovative crowd combat system that lets you pit few against many.

00:02:20.048 --> 00:02:24.531
If you support us now, you’ll also get access to the alpha and beta versions of the game,

00:02:24.548 --> 00:02:28.991
as well as regular development updates, and the opportunity to get the game for less.

00:02:29.358 --> 00:02:32.608
And if you’re a collector you can get exclusive Kickstarter Editions!

00:02:32.986 --> 00:02:35.973
Additionally, all backers will appear in the credits of the game –

00:02:36.328 --> 00:02:42.194
but not just as a name, but as part of a huge army marching against the dwarves.

00:02:44.518 --> 00:02:49.804
