System IV, Building Beige on Nostr: npub1aum4q…65jx0 I see you know board games, and if I’ve disturbed you with this ...
npub1aum4qlaqrl9jlqahrt57czar9ah84nelfv0w75n28nk0d7x22z8q565jx0 (npub1aum…5jx0) I see you know board games, and if I’ve disturbed you with this previously, please forgive me I am old.
30 years ago a friend and I developed a game based on the subway here, the idea being that the “board” was just the free printed map they (still) will hand you at any booth in the system, so the game would change with the city, and you’d be current with the subway at the same time — no small thing here. Good for regular folks, good for tourists, good for NYC. And presumably, fun.
We presented to the MTA itself. Their response was “we’re mass transit; we’re not a game company”.
If you want it, most of the work is done, and it’s yours.
