About The Challenge

The Theme is Gamify!

The digital world is often static, but we believe it should be interactive. Your objective is to build a solution that incorporates elements of gaming, competition, or interactive play. Whether you’re transforming a to-do list into an RPG quest, or building a collaborative interactive art piece, we want to see projects that make users forget they’re using "software" and make them feel like they’re playing.
