Well, this seems interesting. Has there ever been a board game before that uses your smartphone as a playing piece? Quite unique. I hope it gets backed, I'd like to try it.

I saw it in action at GenCon and it looked pretty slick.
ReplyDeleteI was watching a review of Alchemists last night and saw that you can use a smartphone to randomize the potions and use the camera feature to find out what happens when you mix two things via the game's companion app. Looked pretty slick.
ReplyDeleteI watched the world of yo ho kickstarter vid. Looked extremely gimmicky, I can't imagine it would see any play in my groups. Alchemists on the other hand looks awesome
ReplyDeleteThe game actually is pretty slick from what I saw in person. The video, does kind of cheese it up. I spoke with the dev for awhile and he was able to easily answer questions on it, the app is pretty well thought out and the technology on display was slick and that was still for a beta.
ReplyDeleteThat being said I won't back the kickstarter but if it hits retail I'd pick it up.
Very interesting, thank you folks!
