Just curious if anyone has it / knows more about it? Is it Kosher or is it a Non Kosher yoshkanik style game?
The creators are Christians. The time period the game is set in is pre-Yoshka.
Potential historical issue:
It shows events and people that were at different times together. (I think that's simply
a consequence of trying to make a historical period into a game that isn't overly long.)
Potential Judaism-related issues:
Drawings labeled "Ezra"/"Nehemiah"/"Zerubabbel."
The mizbei'ach is drawn with steps leading up to it.
People are drawn holding a Torah directly by the klaf.
There's a female "Singer" character (implying public kol isha).
Potential Christianity-related issues:
The "Fish Gate" location has the Christian fish symbol (the "icthys") on it.
A food resource depicts baskets of "loaves and fishes" (a reference to a story in the New Testament).
The backs of the solo-mode cards show a lion and a lamb (based on a couple of p'sukim in Yeshayah,
one of which also contains a phrase interpreted by Yoshkeniks as a reference to Yoshke).
It's a complicated, somewhat long game. If you're still interested, these links might be useful:
Written reviewsHow-to-play videos (other kinds of video can be selected on the left)
Player comments(^Note: Be aware that people mostly wouldn't have gotten it
unless they were already pretty sure they were going to like it.)
