Game Simulation; The Products of Charles IV
A unique experience in the form of a management simulation game focused on working on multiple products/projects within a single organization. You'll take on the task of developing several major products commissioned by Charles IV himself, transporting you straight to 14th-century Prague. Your goal is to complete the assigned works within a limited time, constrained budget, and defined process. How exactly you proceed is up to the participants — you have 30 minutes to plan. Then, the game clock starts and execution begins.
During the simulation, both individual participants and the team as a whole must respond to unexpected events, project changes, fluctuations in input costs, lack of resources, and more.
