SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA (November 19, 2015) – Syrinscape, creator of the apps that put the power of custom, movie-like sound effects, soundscapes, music, and dynamic audio solutions at the fingertips of the gamer, announces today the release of the new Syrinscape Board Game Player app. The Board Game Player app is free to download, and comes with an array of free sounds to accompany classic board games such as Chess, Casino, and Soduku.

Board games come to life with an authentic-sounding and fully randomized dice roller, “oohs”, “aahs”, and “huzzahs”, various music stings with which to punctuate victories and mock opponents and more.
