To help celebrate our two year anniversary, we teamed up with a team of great YouTube personalities and we’re also using this opportunity to raise money for charities. The charities are Unicef, Doctors without Borders, St. Jude, and Hearts for Healing. Every copy of the game we sell while we’re on sale will have a portion split between the charities based on their team’s wins.  The more wins a team has, the more of the sale earnings will be driven to their charity!
