The game features Neolithic long dolmens (photogrammetry made from my own video footage at the site) from a Danish site called “Lindeskov Hestehave” and an archaeologist character “Dolmen Guy” who knows all about the dolmens at the place, and in general, and another character “Dolmen Debbie” who is reincarnated from the skeleton in one of the graves and has a more spiritual view on the Neolithic, as she was alive back then.
