Didn't know anything about it before today, but totally shelling the cash out, love there guys. Plus that steam key ain't bad~
 
The new graphics look great when compared side-by-side with the original. I'm not going to replay it myself, but I totally recommend it to people who like the genre.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Instant buy. Premise sounds really interesting, and that pricetag doesn't hurt either. :)

is this something good?
it looks to have a lot of references about judaism... but is it something quirky as in god of war or asuras wrath or el shaddai? or is it something serious and nothing made up?

would like to know that kind of information because iam actually interested in those kind of things.

Way more down to earth. Aging Rabbi having a crisis of faith + murder mystery.

Just a friendly reminder. The Shivah: Kosher Edition is coming out in 2 days, so there is still an opertunuty to take advantage of the -20% preorder price of $3.99.
