Hi friends!
We’re really excited to announce that we’ve hit backer number 100! Woohoo!
We’re chugging right along: we’re about a week in and almost 30% of the way to our goal. Big thanks to everybody who has backed our campaign and come out to see the game at any of our recent events. We’ve been busy!
Where we’ve been:
Chicago Design Museum - We headed to one of our favorite places in Chicago on Friday night to do a play night. We ended up playing with some great people (and also bandsaws).
Launch Party - We hosted a launch party for all of our friends here in Chicago. The night went super well, and the whole gang had a blast playing.
Where we’re going:
We’re headed to iO Chicago the evening of Tuesday, 4/18! We’re both alums of iO, so it’s a really great honor of ours to head to this fabulous comedy spot.
Adler Planetarium - On Thursday we’re headed to Adler After Dark here in Chicago. It’s a really cool night. The planetarium closes its doors to the general public, sells tickets, and programs out events throughout the evening. No kids, yes adult beverages.
New Contributor:
We have a new contributor to the game! Joining the ranks of Mario Batali, Ina Garten, and Marc Summers is none other than Max Temkin! Max is a dear friend and one of the masterminds behind Cards Against Humanity and Secret Hitler. His three Secret Ingredient suggestions will be in the final print of the game. We’ll be sure to give you a sneak peek when the art is final!
Press:

What Comes Next:
While we’re about 30% funded, that means we still have 70% to go - and we could use your help! Share this link!
Question of the Day: How do you feel about the new cast of the Great British Bake Off? Where's Mary Berry!?
