BOARD GAME DESIGN CAMP

Ages 8 – 16
Unleash your child’s creativity and strategic thinking in our Board Game Design Camp! Students will learn the language, concepts and skills of professional game designers, while creating their own roll-and-move board game. It’s a hands-on opportunity for game-lovers to practice critical thinking and creative problem solving as they learn. The week culminates with a chance for students to present their games to family and friends. This camp is perfect for beginning game designers, though experienced designers will learn to improve their games with a better understanding of game design and mechanics. Don’t miss your chance; the last session sold out fast! 
Students will be divided into groups by age, attendance allowing.
