“It has always been a dream of ours to see Frozen Synapse on the shelves of a retail store! Personally, I greatly look forward to touching the shiny box and endlessly boring my friends by pointing it out to them. This will be a great way for the game to reach a new audience and also an exciting *thing* for collectors of *things* to grasp and cherish.” – Paul Taylor of Mode 7

“Anyone who knows anything about gaming knows Frozen Synapse, knows its quality and knows it deserves every accolade it has received. The calibre and intelligence  of this game is outstanding and without question it deserves to be introduced to a wider audience with a retail box edition. Mode7 have been a pleasure to work with, and we both look forward to seeing some very satisfied new players.” – Luke Keighran of Merge Games
