Free the Box Game Review

In this game, you need to stay one step ahead of your opponent's at all times. Oddly enough, that means being behind them. This is a game about capturing and outrunning, but be careful how far you go. It's not enough to not be captured, as victory only goes to the player who captures their opponents or can move the most deftly around the neighborhood. Hide if you must, but know that victory is only possible if you keep moving, ducking, and dodging.

Together We Are Strong Game Review

Gamification is the use of game thinking and game mechanics in a non-game context in order to engage users and solve problems. For this game, solving problems is focused on group cooperative team play to tackle some of life's most difficult and personal issues. Physical, social, and psychological problems will be presented to the players to address as a group. No one player can do it all alone, however, and only by working together can all the problems be successfully solved.
