We send this newsletter out monthly, so we're not talking about you being "bombarded." It's published on the last Monday of every month.
The newsletter features PLAAY Games news, insights, commentary and design notes, and is a great way to peek "behind the scenes" and find out what's going on at PLAAY Games. We use the newsletter to announce upcoming product releases and events, and to shine the spotlight on community members for their contributions and accomplishments.
We're also big fans of "value-added," so along with news, insights, commentary and design notes, each issue will include some sort of "freebie," usually more than one! The free item might be an all-time great team or two, a sheet of "special edition" drivers, wrestlers, or bowlers, a new chart for an existing game, or possibly experimental ideas for games that are still on the drawing board.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, just "opt-in" by filling out the form at right. (You'll be glad you did!)
