This simple game of random outcomes shows what mistakes can cause projects to fail. There is a popular phrase like "time is money" for every delay, many plans in a project can change completely and we are talking not only about deadlines but also about the budget. In my opinion, this simple game will be useful for many novice project managers to look at possible random cases of different events from which further analysis can be done.

The game is really challenging. it makes you know your staff strength and their capabilities, the staff that can multi-task and the ones that cannot. it also made me understand that many projects are time bound, the way project A was handled, when applied to project B, you might not get the same feedback.
Very amazing and interesting game! Might be little helpful to some people!

Assigning tasks according to rate of task completion was easy . I found it challenging to predict how much staff members would spend. It made sense that the expensive staff would overspend hence allocated shorter period of time but it was surprising to see the slower staff overspending. Interesting game.
I just want to thank everyone for your continued support and appreciation of this game, it is indeed its very simplicity and relevance to project management in the real world that makes it compelling. Robc (tpmg game developer)
