As many of you know, I'm launching a crowdfunding campaign (one way or another...more on that later) for my dice/party game Scrambo!
Well...after 5 months, the review is finally in from the YouTuber with the coolest name of 'em all, Lance Myxter aka Undead Viking:

"It's a heck of a lot of fun, especially if you've got a group of people who like to scream and yell at each other." :)
Thanks guys! While it's true all reviews from UV are positive (because he charges $$ and as Kris mentioned only reviews games he thinks he'll enjoy), I'm particularly happy with the result as it feels like he genuinely liked it and may bring it out again!
As for launch, I've taken a chance on an unusual opportunity and submitted it to the Hasbro Gaming Lab contest. This time the criteria is simply "family game," so I think it stands a good chance. If they select it (decision will be made around November 7), I'll get $2000 to make a video and it'll go up for funding on Indiegogo.
If they pass, the Kickstarter will hopefully go live later in November, but I still need to shoot the video so we'll see. Not really sure I want to be running a campaign over the holidays!
