An increasing number of business professors are now becoming more aware of
the benefits of low-cost computer simulations of business activities and
principals. Capitalism II, the best business simulation game widely regarded by
the media and the gaming public, has been used by many professors to
breakthrough the dull and boring traditional way of teaching.
Professor Thomas
Kosnik, who teaches at both Stanford and Harvard business schools, has
incorporated Capitalism as a supplemental learning tool into his Entrepreneurial
Marketing class, and has included the game in a final exam. He pointed out the
fact that Capitalism, filled with icons, charts and graphics, is much more
appealing for the present MTV generation than a dull lecture.
This game is available at Amazon.com.
 
Reviews:
"Capitalism is a world class, hands-on learning experience which I've used at
Stanford School of Engineering and Harvard Business School. Gamers not only
learn the subtleties of growing an entrepreneurial business but also learn about
leadership and team building necessary in any business situation.
Capitalism is very realistic and will allow the dynamics to change depending
on whether you're selling a cola product, which is sort of a low tech-branded
consumer good, or whether your selling consumer electronics or a PC."

"This game does an excellent job of modeling many of the key aspects of
modern business. Not all aspects of it are realistic, but enough of them are
that many sensible strategies are encouraged. In particular it's gratifying to
me to see that the game rewards thinking about sources of long-term competitive
advantage, be it from brand recognition, low production costs gained from
learning-by-doing (a nice touch!), a monopoly on high quality inputs, or a big
technological lead."
