Snagging some new fans for Mushroom Men at We The People, a day-long music festival in Los Angeles.

I’m amazed at how quickly little kids pick up this game. People came into Gamecock’s tent and let their children play the game. It’s encouraging that the game is accessible enough for a 5-year-old to pick up while remaining engrossing enough for their parents to play through.
