Yes, I actually dig this more than Shadows of Malice, which says a lot.

I'm really excited about this. I'll be reviewing it on my blog when it's out in the wild.
Jim Felli is one of those designers like the original EON team. He's making his own rules.

Everybody shit all over Dungeon Run for doing the same thing - co-opportunistic. Watch those same wankers praise this.

Fun fact. That font is called Lycanthrope and I used in my prototypes for City of Lycans.

Yep -- that's it! Well, almost... The Lycanthrope font designer (Chad Savage) is a really cool guy. When I decided to use Lycanthrope for the title, I contacted Chad and asked if I could adjust the space between the letters and drop the "i" and "j" lower than they currently were and add a dot atop them. He gave his permission to modify the font as desired. And voila! The Zimby Mojo title!
(Oh yeah... that picture is actually an old mock-up. Check out the BGG page for the final box cover.)

Aside from the Betrayal at House on the Hill expansion, I wasn't planning on spending any more boardgames this year. But this review of Zimby Mojo has captured my interest.

I'll plan on picking it up (just preordered, hope I got in early enough to get one of the early copies!). I don't play Shadows of Malice as much as I should but I when i get it out I enjoy it. It really is a unique take on the genre.

I just placed my pre-order. The last time that I bought a game on impulse like this was Camp Grizzly, and that turned out to be a winner. Should receive my copy by early September or sooner.

I really dig Shadows and ordered this as soon as I realized it was available. If it's as good as what I've been reading then Devious Weasel is going to be right on top of my very short list of game companies to stalk.

Looks like it's pretty dope, based on what I've seen so far on the webz.
Yet another case of "wish I had money" LOL

That's cool, I had wondered about the letters that were different.
Edit- I've decided I need this game. How do I make that happen?

At the moment, you can either pre-order online through the publisher (and get some free promo cards at deviousweasel.com/buy-zm/ ), pre-order through your local FLGS or favorite online merchant, buy live at Gen Con next week (in person or through a friend), or wait until the game gets into general distribution (looks like September). Is that what you were asking?hotseatgames wrote: I've decided I need this game. How do I make that happen?

Knowing Mark as I do, a link to the publisher's preorder site would be ideal.
He's kind of a lazy bugger.
