It looks like a great strategy game.

I'd also recommend (if you haven't already done this) getting Mensa to take a look at it. See here: http://www.us.mensa.org/Content/AML/Naviga...ensa_Select.htm

You might also want to advertise in the National Mensa magazine, or in your local Regional magazine (much cheaper!).

I know from experience that there are many boardgamers in the organization, and I'd say they'd snap this up once they see it in action.

We presented this game at the national Mensa convention in New Orleans in July of this year. They loved it. Several Mensa members have already purchased copies.

Here's a copy of the info. listed in the program.

Purposeful Creativity - Deflexion: the Laser Game
Got a problem you can't solve? Dr. Larson discusses a methodology for creatively solving any problem - an adaptation of the techniques used by successful companies to engineer innovative products. "Deflexion," (www.deflexion.biz) a new board game using lasers, is presented as an example of this creative process.


Thanks for checking out our website. Many s2k members have also made purchases.

Just a note: We have tested this game with seven year old kids and they pick it up extremely quick and love playing it. A 10-12 year old kid played one of the inventors (Luke Hooper) at a display we had in San Diego and beat him. This was the first time the kid saw the game and the 1000 time Luke played the game.


Thanks again,

Greenlight
