Comments from those who played and recommend the game
A golden rule I will remember from today’s game and apply in my everyday work is to make better use of my colleagues’ knowledge and the importance of communication and cooperation. Thanks to the game I realized that you have always to take into account the client and his/her needs.
It was a real test of openness and dynamics, cooperation and teamwork. I was surprised how quick time went on and how great was our cooperation within a new team.
