F.A.Q
How much should we pay?
This is a pay what you want experience. All profits go to support Ukrainian civilians. You can also download it for free. I created this experience to evoke ideas and emotions. I hope you'll benefit from the experience.
Should we all unite against Russia?
No. I believe that the citizens of Ukraine and Russia are both the victims of a bloodthirsty dictator. Support peace and democracy.
Is this an original experience?
This is an adaptation of a more generic experience called Heroes as well. This version is different in several ways.
What do you hope this experience will accomplish?
If it will help even on eperson to reconsider their opinion on the glorification of war I'd be happy.
