DESCRIPTION: For kids who dare to puzzle!
Join us to build epic puzzles and challenge others to solve them! Play all sorts of puzzle games and decide how to use elements for your own. Create your own mazes, logic puzzles, riddles and sequence all sorts into designing your own escape rooms and games for others to solve. Master giving clues to help or hinder people and learn game dynamics and techniques to use in your story to keep people on their toes. Participants will also explore game genres, like spinner games and games of chance, timers and timed games, mazes and pac-man style games. This experience is a wonderful mix of game design, math, technology and storytelling.
