Hero has been waiting for a long time. A really long time. For an adventure, for an exciting journey full of challenges, dangers and dragons! Then he finally gets a call that changes everything. Hero is suddenly in a land that has fallen out of balance: Exclamation Face has stolen Questionhead's hat. Since then, no one has been able to ask questions anymore and everything is in chaos. Together with Sidekick, Hero sets out to find the hat - but not everything works out the way Hero had always imagined an adventure would...

With \"Land behind the Curtain\", JES invites you to immerse yourself: Into an imaginative world full of surprises and funny twists, but also full of dangers and doubts that have to be overcome. We ask ourselves the big questions of all fantasy tales:

What is worth fighting for? Does it even make sense to fight? Is there no other way? And does one person always have to save the world alone, or does it not take at least two, or even many more?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
