Comment on "Journey to Justinia" – how I got my 5-year-old son to sit still for 5 hours

As a child, I would draw similar maps with monsters and artifacts using MacDraw Pro. I'd draw black layers to simulate fog of war and delete as play progressed. My friend and I would take turns creating maps.

It was loads of fun. If something like this gets kickstarted as others have suggested, I'd recommend a kid-friendly way to build maps. Creation can be more fun than playing and also gives kids a different set of problems to explore.
