According to the Yoomoota Universe legend, “Another Kingdom: Light Stage” belongs to the planet Us2BeBetter, whose inhabitants are born to start a new story. It's a chance to return to origins, avoiding conflicts and the destruction of neighboring kingdoms. During a game on the chessboard, residents have the opportunity to reverse the course of history. Conceptually, chess pieces rise on two mountains, and at the center of the board, an artifact is hidden — an object eagerly sought after on this planet. This artifact, resembling an old pocket watch, has the power to temporarily revert a past.
The «Another Kingdom: Light Stage» chess set marks the beginning of a new era in the development of the kingdom on one of the Yoomoota planets. It personifies the catchy atmosphere of an endless fair. In the course of the chess game, there are two victories — physical and symbolic. The first is associated with the classical rules of chess. The latter signifies that the heroes will discover a treasure hidden at the center of the board.
