Steam Store description

Shakespeare's classic play about how intolerance, bigotry, and revenge not only conspire to destroy society but also form deadly cycles of hate and abuse. NOW IN FAMILY FUN STICK DRAWING FORM. Also, there's an Adventure Mode. Do you have the GUTS to REWRITE SHAKESPEARE? Instead of taking Shylock's money, maybe you just go off and FIGHT A CYCLOPS INSTEAD. Adventure Mode is only for the bravest of souls. Read the play in its original text OR in plain English! OR both! Why not both? Well, now you HAVE THAT OPTION AT YOUR MERCY. ADVENTURE MODE: the original play not doing it for you? Why not add flaming ninjas to it? I mean, if that's what you want. Adventure Mode adds a completely new flavor that William Shakespeare himself/herself would have been proud of! No pre-order stuff!
