What I would like to see is an adventure game for learning Forth.
You could have rooms that introduce you to a concept or a word,
which you would need in order to some some immediate or later puzzle.
For instance, you could have a room that puts a new random number
on the stack each time that you type something, and you would have
to DUP it in order to progress.  You could have a ladder with thousands
of rungs, and you would have to write some sort of a loop to climb it.
