Lost in the google for hours: Millionshort search, Duck Duck Go and more. Eventually\u00a0I found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.usmra.com\/repository\/category\/games\/powerpoints\/Presentation_Games_List.htm\" target=\"_blank\">this resource of templates for games<\/a>\u00a0if you are short of ideas there is a little treasure in there. A little dated perhaps, but fun.\u00a0The editable template for this game is there and I downloaded it.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was meant to be a quick cut and paste job. Well, it wasn&rsquo;t.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I created the game from the template. It seemed meh in Powerpoint. Ah! I could make a movie. Then, Ben and Family could sit and play it just using the pause button. I did a screencast with QuickTime. Sound was off, looked terribly unfinished. Perfectionism won.<\/p>\n<p>I will do a quick fix in iMovie. That was yesterday afternoon. Since then, I have been through different versions, new music to make new soundtrack, a DS106 Radio surprise was added at the end and Boom! Now it is ready for use. iMovie was not playing ball and I tried to edit a version ( just trimming) on YT editor yesterday only to wake up this morning with the thing stuck and still processing. Note to self &#8211; don&rsquo;t do that again.<\/p>\n<p>Without further ado, I give you:<\/p>\n<p><strong>WHO WANT TO BE #4LIFE?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And here are the rules:<\/p>\n<p>Rule 1. Lots of ice-cream (or other favourite food) for Ben before playing<\/p>\n<p>Rule 2. Lots of beer for the grown ups before playing<\/p>\n<p>Have Fun, Ben!<\/p>\n<p>Update: Some people asked about playing the game and all I have is the Powerpoint presentation.
