Apparently there is a balance in the universe. We had a ton of stress due to the unexpected delays with shipment of 𝐀𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝 to the US, the release seemed doomed. Due to the delay, we were not able to ship pre-orders before Gen con, we were not able to ship any review copies before Gen con, we were only desperately fighting to have the game at the booth. And then the world said, time to balance it. Polygon picked Abroad as one of the hottest games of the show. The BGG hot games room drove a lot of traffic to our booth - people played the game and came to us to buy it. And yesterday, completely out of the blue, the Dice Tower team decided to put Abroad on the table, play and live stream it! And here I am, having awesome game play video on one of the biggest YT channels in our hobby. Well, I said it many times in my various interviews about game design - I like balance, both in games and in real life! :D
