Confirmed: Scopely?s New $8.5M Funding Round Was Not Wrapped In Bacon

There are a handful of startups that are going to build mobile-social gaming platforms or die trying. Los Angeles' Scopely is one of the latest. The company, from AdSense Co-creator Eytan Elbaz, is closing $8.5 million in funding in a round led by Anthem Venture Partners. Over the past year, the company has grown to about 30, luring engineers with promises of $11,000 in bacon-wrapped cash and spear guns. (No joke. See the picture to the left. And they gave hires their own personal oil portrait too.)
