Build a game in Anaplan! Recording from the Builder Challenge event
Our August Community Challenge invited people to share creative or useful Anaplan models they've built, and WOW — the Community delivered! We recently hosted an event to walk through a few of the unique and fun model builds — a recording is available below.
Tune in to see four fun model builds:
- Kirill Kuznetsov (@KirillKuznetsov), Anaplan Solution Architect from Planingo, kicks things off with a demonstration of his incredible game of Battleship he built in Anaplan
- Seyma Tas (@seymatas1), Anaplan Product Owner from Caliber Collision, dives into how she built the classic Rock, Paper, Scissors
- Murat Akkas (@muratakkas), Solution Architect from Wipro, shares his fan-favorite Cows & Bulls game
- And our host Noah Jackson (@NoahJ), Principal Solution Architect at Anaplan, closes out the session with his build of the game of Blackjack
Chapter timestamps:
- Battleship: 3:39
- Rock, Paper, Scissors: 17:05
- Cows and Bulls: 30:58
- Blackjack: 42:13

Seyma Tas, one of our presenters, had an excellent suggestion during the live event…. Before or after a project kickoff, challenge your team to work together to build a game! It can be a really fun team-building activity.
