Gray Matters Games Launches Family Party Game, Word Wipeout
October 1, 2022 - Gray Matters Games, a Glen Ellyn, Illinois-based game publisher, announced the release of Word Wipeout, a new, fast-paced word game in which players race to collect the most letters by spelling a word related to over 200 fun categories. The rounds get progressively more challenging as fewer letters remain in a race to get the word out!
Word Wipeout is the result of a wonderful collaboration between Gray Matters Games and the College of DuPage. What started as a capstone project for three students, Jess Pistone, Samer Abdelmalek and Elizabeth Mendoza, is now a game that will be sold nationwide in the US and Canada at Barnes & Noble and Indigo along with hundreds of independent toy & game stores. The students won the College of DuPage award for best packaging and received incredible real-world experience by taking a game from concept to finished product.
The students, along with Gray Matters Games’ team members, Joe Barron and Alena Lyons, are finalists for Game Innovator of the Year at the Toy & Game International Excellence Awards (TAGIEs) which will be held November 19th at the Epiphany Center for the Arts in Chicago!
Word Wipeout is now available on Amazon and on the Gray Matters Games Website. For sales or media inquiries, please contact Joe Barron at joe@graymattersgames.com or call 517.974.5256.
Word Wipeout media kit available here.
