Given that the reason it's "Playable" rather than "Verified" is because they've picked the text box function that doesn't pop up the keyboard rather than the one that does, they really ought to get that fixed before release.
Cute trailer. I may well get this.

As someone who is interested in that period's history and who played Age of Empires 1 as a child - I really enjoyed the old free alpha on Itch.io: https://lincread.itch.io/the-fertile-crescent
