The Three Thing Game event is a success

The 'Three Thing Game' was a concept that arose from an exercise called 'Destruction Golf' (a number of students had a week to create a game). A 24 hour development session followed that was covered by the media. 

This semester (March 2012), 33 teams (111 students) 'bid' via an auction for 'three things' which they based their games upon. Those 'things' were all unique and given at random (with some of the words referecned to the Olympics or Golden Jubilee!) When put together, they produced phrases such as...

• 'Biscuit Ghost Werewolf'
• 'Banana Farmyard Carnage'
• 'Bicycle Ocean Missile'
• 'Boy Contracption High Jump'

Once again, the teams had 24 hours to complete there games. Most made it to the end and produced some good results.

Members of staff and Sony representatives were on hand to be judges.  Three prizes were awarded to the top three teams, along with a "People’s Choice” award that was judged by the teams themselves.  Videos of the games can be viewed via YouTube.com and typing in "threethinggamemarch2012.
