Monopoly Scavenger Hunt

Sole Developer

This game is a twist on a standard scavenger hunt and uses a Monopoly board (from Hasbro) to dictate locations to search for items. The twist from a standard scavenger hunt is that the game is a series of short bursts of hunting. After this both teams and the banker can still talk and interact while getting to the next location. This makes the game more social between teams, and also helps the competitiveness since you can get more immediate feedback on your competitor’s successes at each location.

Business Card Game 2012 – Maze

Sole Developer

On the back of my business cards are small games that use my extensive brooch collection. You need to go from the “start” to the “finish” by linking brooches that have something in common.

There are six to collect. If you’ve met me and I’ve given you a card: brilliant! I’m sure it was lovely meeting you. If I haven’t met you yet, don’t let that stop you from having a go of these little games since you can access them on my (archived) website.

The Dragon Whisperers

Game designer, writer, programmer, producer

You and your sibling must save your mother’s life by travelling to the top of a temple guarded by a dragon. The dragon asks questions in pictograms and if you want to be understood you’ll need to reply in pictograms. Luckily you have a dragon dictionary! Unfortunately you only have half of the dictionary. Your sibling has the other half!

You must work sitting next to a friend in the real world to translate what the dragon is saying and determine what you should say in response. If you choose correctly, you will ascend the temple steps and get closer to saving your mother’s life. If you choose incorrectly you will be forced to descend.

The Dragon Whisperers is a two player offline co-op game and requires both of you to have the app installed on your device. One player must select “Player 1” at the beginning, the other must select “Player 2”.
