The prequel will be a Kickstarter-exclusive book called Poor Yorick: a chooseable-path mini adventure that takes place BEFORE Hamlet, leading into the action of To Be Or Not To Be. We're 25 years in the past and alas, poor Yorick: you're broke! While you may be a man of infinite jest and most excellent fancy, THAT DON'T PAY THE BILLS. Your one hope is an opening at the royal court for a jester. Seems easy enough: the listing says your responsibilities are "...to entertain Kid Hamlet and also to not end up dead at every turn". Will you survive? Or will you end up in a shallow grave?
