Our Games
The Grand Carnival
Ladies and gentlemen, step right up – the carnival is coming to town!

About Uproarious
Some companies exist to "maximize return", or "dominate their vertical" or "create shareholder value". At Uproarious, we don't even know what those words mean... which is why we just stick to making games.
Whether outwitting your opponent, exploring uncharted realms, or laughing til you're blue in the face, our games create experiences. We engage a player's imagination to make something truly magical - a memory you'll be snickering about for years to come.
Uproarious was launched in early 2016 by the award winning game designer, Jeff Beck, and is based in Salt Lake City, Utah. We currently have four games in various stages of development and a weekly podcast focused on the indie game design scene.

Word Domination Solo App
After months of grueling development, the companion solo app, Word Domination: Going Solo, is now available on the iTunes App Store and Google Play. For all those criminal masterminds who are so devious, they can’t play well with others, this app is a great way to test your word building and area control skills.

It’s just … so … beautiful.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder… unless that beauty happens to be a 24 carat diamond, in which case, beauty is in the hands of the beholder. But in this case, we are confident in saying that pretty much everyone will agree – the new Word Domination logo is beautiful (whether you are Read more about It’s just … so … beautiful.[…]

Not sure why you’d need a screenshot, given you’re probably on the new site right now… but just Read more about Hey look, we’ve got a website![…]
