The GNOME Games project is wants to have a "new game screen"  (see https://live.gnome.org/GnomeGames/Modernisation).   A "new game screen" is a screen that is shown when loaded that shows a preview of the different game modes (e.g. easy, medium hard) and the game preferences available.  In a single click the user should then be started in the game of their choosing.  See Sudoku for how a screen should look.  The student should pick one of the games listed there and create a new game screen for it, it is suggested that gnomine, gnotravex or mahjongg will be the easiest.

• How to use the GNOME issue tracker, bugzilla.gnome.org
