I was very happy for managing to go through quarter final round last week. That was my first time to gain two marks from Mr.G. However my game did not manage to go through the final round. The winner of the presentation was "Last Letter" which was introduced by Norhafidhah and Mursyidah. Even though my game is more sustainable (in my point of view), it did not caught the juries' interest. Well why don't you judge our game (my partner's and me did the game together actually) yourselve. we adapted the game from a book (I forgot to take notes of the writer and the book's title) and altered it here and there to meet the needs of sustainablity.
