It’s a non-violent role-playing game in which players set out to unite the four different competing clans of the country. The ultimate goal of the game is to teach kids how to achieve peace and coexistence in an accessible way.

The initiative is largely being funded by the Dutch Embassy, but SCGL is still short of $50,000 to finish the project. Want to support the cause? Click here<\/a> to find out how you can donate.
