Wow, I’m honored to have gotten a spot in the playtesting reward! Thank you so much for helping us solo devs out! It can be really rough doing so much with one person!

A nice article about the development of Monopoly Go, including how playtesting & user research fit into the development of a successful game of launch (via the @PlaytestCloud newsletter)
We validated what we were doing through plenty of internal playtesting, lots of external users being invited to play the game. We tried to be humble and to check and understand in every corner what we were doing, but the results from the test gave us some confidence that we could keep the bar high and we could give ourselves the sterner test and still pass."
