She's not exactly a struggling mother who needs the money to make her child's dream come true. She could probably stretch to a laptop or even a 100 of them. Is this meant to be educational? For whom?

There are quite a few projects by people who do actually need the money to have a chance for their dreams to come true.

THE GAME (that's what she is calling it) already has a release date of July 2013 despite there being no evidence of her having written a game before... Without appearing cynical, can I ask why there is a $10000 pledge band?

She's going to RPG camp and they finish the game during the camp session.

The 10k reward level seems more humorous than an actual attempt to get someone to pledge 10k. I'm doing a kickstarter soon and we have the exact same thing, a huge reward level with a somewhat comedic prize attached.
