Reading all this, I was thinking about making myself another home brew C++ game called "answer the questions"
. Here's a little sample:

Player 2
Luthier, try to answer these questions really fast and win!
1) Was epilipy filter a fraud?
Answer: What? (shakes head) Oh no, no, no! We really had to do that because we didn't want anyone to become injured playing our wonderful simulation of the Battle of Britian. We really weren't trying to mask our fails in programming this wonderful ww2 simulation. It was all on the “up and up” to help those less fortunate that have this terrible spastic affliction, because we really care about those guys and gals (hic) and their happiness is more important than success of our sim that we worked many, many, many years on. Too bad we had to fire some of those guys. But dem's da breaks!
Time to answer this question : 1 hour and first bottle of vodka.
2) Was clod a hunk of junk?
Answer: No, no, no... no doooubt about it!
Time to answer this question: Sometime into the second bottle, half empty with some backwash, bits of burrito floating on top.
3) Do you think bom will be better than clod?
Answer: Uh, wake me up when it's over. B6, where’s my pillow??? Too late. Thump! (falls on floor, foaming vomit trailing side of mouth, big gash on side of head that gets infected with white pus a few days later.)
Time to answer this question: Error!..Error!..Error!..Error!...
Player 2 Total Score: Disqualified
That was a not so excellent score, Luthier!
Winning??? Not so much.
/*************************************************
It’s just an example. When or if I get it finished, I’ll make an “announcement”. Hum dee dum...
