GIANT Game Design Bootcamp: "Would you rather" edition


  • ASYNCHRONOUS ONLINE (map)

Join our free Game Design Bootcamp to design the most epic “Would you rather” questions, make prototypes, and remix ideas into a published one-of-a-kind game book and a deck of cards.

DESCRIPTION: For kids who dare to design their own “Would you rather” questions and get their ideas published in a GIANT game book and deck of cards!

Over the span of one week, we’ll send you one free creative challenge a day to help you learn the art of asking good questions that spark fun, deep, and meaningful conversations. Ask questions that make you think and feel, rhyme, spark a debate, make you go YUCK, or make you laugh! You’ll even have the option to design prototypes for your game cards.

We’ll then remix all the ideas into a one-of-a-kind game book and a deck of cards for you to have hours and hours of fun conversations and deep connections with family and friends!

Recommended for ages 5-12

What are GIANT Remixes?

GIANT Remixes are a new super popular program by The GIANT Room where kids’ ideas get published into books, games, interactive journals and trading cards. These remixes are designed to highlight kids’ creativity, boost their creative confidence, and engage them in more building, more storytelling, and more play!
