Got kids in higher education? I’m sure you are trying to convince yourself that the burgeoning scholars you just sent off to that psychotically expensive college are studying every waking minute they are there - and dreaming serious scholastic thoughts while asleep.After all, that would be the only sensible thing to do, considering all that cash you just forked over.
But ummm…you probably went as well right? After my first day, I woke up the next morning with a lampshade on my head - and no idea how it got there.
Suffice it to say, things haven’t changed all that much when it comes to life at University.
Now, this may sound like a bit of a sales pitch, and in truth, it is. But I have to tell you about some of the feedback we’ve been getting from the college age crowd, and their Game Wave nights.
“We’re not nerds! Just had to say that up front, but I’d like to thank you guys, and my mom, for the Game Wave. We’ve been holding tournaments after class a couple of times a week, and everyone is going ape___ over the thing. We’re thinking of going to our house head and seeing if she can set up a college wide championship…”
Kids staying in dorm rooms to play educational games? It actually happens. So, if you’re thinking of dropping by the little Einstein to see how they are doing, why not bring along something that they will not only enjoy, but could also keep them out of the pub.
Well, not all the time.

Any chance of releasing some slightly more sophisticated games for the college and up crowd? Something along the lines of the old Commodore game M.U.L.E. or something else that's more a real time multiplayer simulation. Cutthroats and Cartels or something like a stock market simulator? Just a thought.
Hey Bob,
We are in the process of development of a frikin’ cool new game named, well I can't tell you the name because I'd get in trouble, but it definitely skews to the college crowd and brings in some serious wagering as well.
We've been playing the demo a lot and even though I know the answers ('cause I wrote the questions) the game play is excellent.
It will be our next release after our Veggietales game comes out.
Although I’m sure some of the kids you’re hanging with would love to play that one more.
so, veggie tales is out, so whats this next game coming called???
The next game will be in the early new year and it's called...
Nope - still can't do it.
