Kevin Bachus is their VP of Entertainment and Games, formerly on the team that designed the original Xbox, and he’s no stranger to the gaming industry. Now he wants to find a fresh idea.

“I would hope that this contest brings to light some idea that would never occur to anybody. I think that opening up this opportunity to our guests… is a natural progression.”

The winner of the NBGS will win free games for life at Dave and Buster’s, and their game will be available at D&B locations – which for the indie developer or aspiring game dev is one heck of a prize.
