If you want to see some amazing high-level Babble Royale play, check out this video of Will Anderson, former North American Scrabble champ, who is absolutely destroying. Watching this guy play Babble is like watching Roger Federer play Tennis. Seriously.

We are a fund run by women developers. We invest in games that are spearheaded by marginalized folks and we support diverse teams. We've been running for a year & we aren't slowing down! I ask for retweets on my own work lot, but this is important to me too. Spread the word ♥️
