Goko Dominion was featured in an article on Kotaku, which is a somewhat popular video gaming blog. Pretty neat.

I only see 7 replies, and only 1 is even somewhat snarky.  Are they curating it?

No, but I am seriously considering dropping him a few paragraph email suggesting that he consider doing some actual journalism rather than just repeating some press releases.

For example, he could mention that its not really live, its in beta, its still buggy (crashes chrome?, doesn't work in IE, on tablets, etc., and expansions cost about 3x what expansions for other digital card games cost.

It seems like Goko is starting to ramp up their advertising. Do they really feel confident in their product? If it was me, I would really try to get the crashes and browser issues under control first before trying to get more people over. Only bad publicity awaits them. I did warn them however.

My guess is every time they need more money they do a little press release to try to get a few more unwary suckers to buy into their half built product.
