Hello, everyone.
We are Ossan Club, a Japanese indie game-making club.
We need your kind support to make an English version of our otome game, Kane no tameni kane ha naru(For money the bell rings.).
[ What is Kane no tameni kane ha naru? ]![]()
Here is our website: http://www.otusun.club/money/index.html
The heroine, Maria is a skilled herbalist.
She saved up money in order to get married with her master, but he ended up using the money to marry another woman, dumping the heroine.
He went as far as saying: “you can buy a man with the money you earn from your skill.”
This helped Maria decide what to do next.
“OK. If one can get a man with money, I will buy one and get married!”
Five men, who have fallen quite low, are available to her.
The difference from ordinary otome games is that the heroine has a lot of guts! She leads and helps the men get over their miserable situations.
[Why make an English version]![]()
Characters from popular Japanese otome games are really thin, young.
But that’s not what I wanted.
That’s why I made this game, where the men are tough and middle-aged.
Unexpectedly, many people bought and loved our game.
We have a lot of fans in Japan, which made us think that there are probably many more people all over the world who would love to play our game.
Tough guys in the West are usually popular, aren’t they?
Plus being middle-aged is seen as a good thing too.
[Characters who are far from heroes]![]()
In this game, every character you meet is in a terrible situation and has a lot of debt.
You spend money for them and help them get over their miserable hardships.
Japanese voice actors voiced the characters in Japanese.

Samuel Double
An alcoholic swordsman.
He used to be a great warrior but now he just drinks the day away, putting even his sword in pawn.
![]()
William Bloom
A naive elf that has many affairs.
He loves helping people and gets cheated into a lot of unintended debts.
![]()
Ben Ko
A thief who is crazy about gambling.
He loves gambling, but hasn’t won a single time.
His skills as a thief are top notch though.
![]()
Brian Stalley
A priest and warrior from a declining line of aristocrates.
He struggles to get back the house his father lost.
He is very snobbish and extremely selfish.
![]()
Walter Presant
A necromancer obsessed with his studies.
He is not interested in the Living and spends most of his time looking for corpses in graveyards.
He is a real pervert who needs a lot of attention.
![]()
The heroine: A very ordinary but very attractive girl.
Maria is very quiet and introverted but at the same time she is courageous, frugal, and kind.
She is generally very prude, but in romantic situations she lets her sexiness go wild.
Maria is not special. She is a very ordinary girl, just like you.
[How to play]![]()
You enter dungeons and collect ingredients, treasures, and money. With the ingredients, you can make medicine and sell it. The story moves forward as you use money for the men. In the end, Maria and her partner get married.

[Way of using the fund]
Translation fee about $10000
Cost of making perks about $2000
Registration fee etc, about $1000
[Stretch goal]
Our Club has two members, Ayane and Himono.
We have been making games for more than twelve years, but we’ve never met. If we raise more money than the goal we’ve set, we will use the reminder to meet each other for the first time. Of course, we will tell you all about it! If we go above that target, we would like to make a spin-off sound novel.
Caution: The pillows might not be able to pass customs in some countries due to religious doctrines and other regulations. Please understand this beforehand.
