OAKLAND, Calif. - EntSun -- PostCurious, award-winning independent publisher of narrative puzzle games, and Jack Fallows (they/them), author and illustrator, have launched a new, illustrated puzzletale book series. Pledges start at $26; the book retails for $29. The Stormlamp Rituals - Volume I is live on Kickstarter through July 2.

The campaign was funded in 17 minutes and surpassed 1,600 backers within the first 24 hours of launch. The first stretch goal has already been unlocked—every copy of the book will now include a spot UV effect on the cover. PostCurious has revealed the next milestone: at 2,500 backers, every pledge will receive a deluxe sticker pack.

The Stormlamp Rituals is a 10+ hour puzzle narrative for 1-2 players, ages 14 and up—no internet required. The story follows a young witch who discovers her mother's grimoire and crosses into a parallel world of ancient magic to uncover the truth about her lineage. It arrives as a hardcover book filled with rich narrative and full-color original artwork, with a built-in hint system, and a satchel of 13 additional puzzle components.

"I've devoted almost ten years to tinkering with the world and the format of Anna's story. I want the reader to be doing exactly what she is doing: leaving comfort zones to discover the magic within and around us. The Stormlamp Rituals is an illustrated puzzle book, but what I'm interested in exploring is the space where visual storytelling and puzzle-solving overlap—where each element supports the meaning of the others. It's been a long time in the making, but it's finally time to invite you all to discover its secrets."
