Scene It? Movie Night review (XBLA)
Scene It? Movie Night was developed by Sarbarkan Games and published by Screenlife LLC. It was released November 30, 2011 in the US only, for 800 MSP. A copy of the game was provided for review purposes.
Scene It? Movie Night is the latest iteration in the Scene It? movie trivia franchise. The ultimate party game and just in time for the holiday season too.
