Catalyst Needs Playtesters For Their Vikings: Longships Game
April 16, 2015 by deltagamegirl22
If you love the show, Vikings, and you are interested in providing feedback for a new game- then you need to contact Catalyst Game Labs!
Catalyst is looking for some seriously, motivated gamers that would like to play a very crucial role in the playtesting for their latest game with their recently acquired Vikings license- Vikings: Longships. Unlike their other games on this theme, Jarl and The Vikings Boardgame, this game is a card based, resource management and bluffing game.
Players will raid different islands to obtain the resources they need, all the while trying to decide who's in it for the good of the group, and who's in it for themselves. This game plays on the Prisoner's Dilemma game theory, where however good intentions may be, people turn on one another as fear builds, leaving people fighting with one another so they are not left worrying about being attacked.
So if you're a dedicated gamer that'd like to contribute to the cause, send an email to Randall at Catalyst at [email protected] with I WANT TO BE A PLAYTESTER in the subject line. Please include in your email a paragraph pitch on your unique qualities or expertise that would make you a great fit for this opportunity.
Are you interested in exploring your inner Viking?

Thanks for sharing Dawn! I love the Vikings show – I just sent them an e-mail. I would love to give this game a go.
That’s so cool! You’ll have to let me know if they pick you. If I had more time, I’d love to give it a go too.
They contacted me within the hour after my e-mail, we( my family) did have to sign their Non Disclosure agreement which I just sent off so now waiting for their response. We are all excited 🙂
