I feel sad for the world. While great potential games don't reach their $50k budget in kickstarter, some dude made a kickstarter to make a potato salad, I think his budget was $10 or something, he's received like $60K so far as it made the news.

Unrest gets many essential elements right. It builds a unique world based on elements of ancient India, portraying a single conflict from different perspectives and putting players in shoes of the socially underprivileged. That makes the game’s failure to complement these successful features with effective role-playing systems come across as particularly disappointing. For a game that sets out with intent to include elements rarely embraced in games, Unrest comes across as an underwhelming mixture of a smartly constructed core without any layers to complement it.
