In this Meet the Startup episode of the Alumni Ventures Tech Optimist Podcast, Jason Bird chats with David T. Scott, CEO of Evil Genius Games, about how the company is modernizing tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs) with a digital-first platform. David shares how Evil Genius Games combines cutting-edge tech with licensed movie franchises like John Wick and Pacific Rim to offer diverse, action-packed storytelling experiences beyond traditional fantasy. With a focus on inclusivity and community-driven content, Evil Genius Games is expanding TTRPG appeal and redefining immersive play for a new generation of gamers.

David's Ask: David’s primary asks for Evil Genius Games are for continued fundraising support, introductions to Hollywood studios to expand their licensed intellectual property partnerships, and help from community advocates to encourage TTRPG players to try out their platform.
