Today, kindergarten was closed and I had to take much of the day off to take care of my five-year old daughter. We asked Chat GPT to assume the role of a master board game designer and to lead us through the creation of a novel boardgame, with input from us. She came up with the setting - we are unicorns that need to rescue princes and princesses that have been captured in a scary forest full of monsters. Quickly, the LLM proposed a full list of rules and props to make. We then had fun for around two hours drawing various cards and markers.

The game was playable on the first try with only a few minor and very quick rule tweaks from me. Even I felt we went on a stressful quest in the forest. Honestly among the best games for this age group that I have ever played.

10/10 activity, will try again.
