Elf Games Playday at Softstar Workshop

Elf Games Playday at Softstar Workshop

The theme of the February 23, 2023 playday was that each team of elves had three hours to create a game using at least 50% of an assortment of scrap material they were given. All teams started with the same set of materials, but could include additional scrap from around the workshop. The judges rated the elf games and gave three awards: most fun, most creative, and most marketable.

The Teams

  • 21 Sheep Pilot
  • Orange Crush
  • Oh…Yeah
  • Gang Green
  • Tossers

The Games

  • Sheep Me Home
  • Rings of Fire
  • Black Widow Showdown
  • Stickle Ball
  • Elf Olympics

All teams happened to incorporate "throwing" into their games in one way or another. Teams also all chose to create their own rule books.
