Ollie’s Game

Designed by Game Studies and Design students and faculty, Ollie’s Game is a two player cooperative card game specifically designed for children in the hospital, but can be played by anyone.  Dedicated to Ollie Tetloff and named Ollie’s Game, this game was specifically designed to be able to be played on a hospital tray with two people in 10-15 minutes with no loser but a progression chart for winning.  The game has colorful graphics and a theme of deep space fishing, combing two of Ollie’s favorite things, sea creatures and outer space. The game comes in a tuckbox with a rule booklet and over 70 full color cards with custom artwork.
