We ran across the nerdiest board game

We ran across the nerdiest board game today called c-jump, the computer programming game. More info: “Skiers and snowboarders line up at the start location and race along the ski trails. Spaces on the board show statements of programming language. First player to move all skiers past the finish line is the winner.”

Update: here’s the game’s web site. “This game eliminates intimidation of many kids and their parents, bored by the mention of ‘computer programming’, often associated with visions of geeky guys glued to their computers.”
