Initially I thought as PM I should task everyone and I realized that some are slow & expensive which is costly, and I think the best is to utilize resources considering the budget. I wouldn't task everyone to save on budget. Too slow employees I would not task them as they would prolong project duration.

How do i save my wins? Each time i win and start the game it takes me back to zero wins.

Edwin, Sorry for my slow reply. I had a surprise cardiac issue and ended up in the hospital for a while, anyway, I'm better now.

To save your wins you have to register. Click the register link on the game page and follow the directions. If you provide a unique first and last name and login using those name every time then your win statistics should be accumulated. Let me know if you are still having trouble. Robc.

Bob was good to add at the end for the last time consuming task. The slowest worker was good to add to the least time consuming task. Good game!

I assigned all the float tasks with no predecessor to cheap resources and the critical one to expensive resources,

unfortunately, it doesn't keep track of all projects completed, but overall good

This game would benefit from having some pre-set scenarios with static project Gantt charts and fixed staff that we could attempt multiple times in addition to the procedurally generated projects and staff combinations.

It would also benefit from more information on the limitations of your staff, such as how much work each can be assigned before they start burning out.

Sage, thanks for the comment! I released a more advanced version of this game called the “senior PM” game. It had the features you mentioned including persistent staff and many other features. Unfortunately it wasn’t very popular. I pulled the game and planned to rework to something a little less complicated and closer to this original. It’s not finished but hopefully I’ll get it up one day! Robc.
