BIGGIE BILLS : AN INTERACTIVE STRATEGIC THINKING GAME

A patented, interactive, and dynamic strategic thinking system, designed and played as a card game. Presently, the game can be completely online, or it could use a hybrid approach (game is online and players are gathered in a large room or multiple breakout rooms).
