As a challenge to my game design students (and other participants) I thought it important to experience what it is like making someone else's dream game idea  a reality.   Whether it is a video game, CYOA, web comic or board/card game,   be sure to link/source/credit the author of your inspiration.   

IDEAL PAIRING:                     BUILDER + ARTIST (One is the Genie and one is the IDEA person)
