The upcoming indie Sci-Fi RPG game Encased has hit its $100.000 US funding goal on Kickstarter. The game is currently in development at Dark Crystal Games.

The game is said to be an old-school role-playing game featuring turn-based combat. The non-linear story campaign will be roughly 30 hours long with significant replay potential.
