Franklin Wright's Conveyor Belt to be made by University Games
Conveyor Belt,a board game created by eight year old Franklin Wright,is to be distributed and sold in toy stores across the US later this year.
Wright won the 2013 National Young Game Inventors Contest,a competition challenging kids aged five to 12 to invent,design and submit their own board game.
Franklin beat more than 180 other game submissions to win,and University Games,sponsor of the contest,will produce Coveyor Belt.
Judging criteria included factors such as"Is this game fun?""Is it challenging?"and"Is it something that families would enjoy?"
Franklin is also interested in creating video games and apps,and he will soon be the first eight year old to be a guest lecturer for video game company GearBox's programming workshop.
