4. Mobile Family History Game

This project will utilize an existing open source game such as 2048, Go, Chess, Checkers and customize it with family history data from FamilySearch. Taking advantage of open source code and simply customizing it will allow us to complete a full game and get it in the google play store in 8 hours. The entire project will be developed in a public github repository. Suggested technologies: PhoneGap, html, css, and javascript."
