That's a very cool idea, but why only digital? You could try to set up a board game library. There's a lot of board games that are educational and playing around with designing board game mechanics are the first steps in game design (even for digital game designers). You could team up with Concordia game club and even held play test sessions for the game developed by the group.
Yes, I did consider that option, but board game libraries have their own challenges... Imagine checking each returned board game so that all pieces are all still there! That is a bit of a logistical challenge to say the least...
Olivier Charbonneau yeah, I imagine the logistics may be complicated, but I think is doable. On Brazil we have a bar that charges a small fee per person and let groups play any board game from its library. They even have staff members to help players setup the game, explain the rules and even suggest games (since they have more than 80 titles and most are not well know in Brazil.). I really like the idea and would love to see implemented in Concordia :). Let me know if I can help in anyway.
