It is really cool. It would be interesting to make the speed proportional to the either the number of squares owned or the square root of that. Because right now as the area the ball owns gets smaller, the number of hits will increase at the same speed.
- JKCalhoun 3y agoLike the card game, "War", it seems to self-regulate that way. I assume neither side will ever win.
- yellowapple 3y agoWith "War" it's indeed possible to win, though.

- sodality2 3y agoWar is also entirely deterministic and contains no choices, so some don't consider it a game
- Waterluvian 3y agoHmm! Because once the cards are shuffled everything is a fixed series of events? Would Snakes and Ladders be the same then if we replaced a die with a randomized deck of cards of the numbers 1-6? And in that sense: any “game” that’s purely random is also not a game then?
- jaredsohn 3y agoAgree but I think these things can be considered games in the sense that it gives younger kids practice in following rules and interacting within a group. Also is an activity for them to spend time and there is a concept of 'winning' even if the participants cannot impact that.
