A fun, competitive educational game that doesn't feel like schoolwork to your kids!

A great family game! You can create a custom match and invite the whole family to play against each other. Works across phones, tablets and computers, so everyone can get in the action. The educational aspect is very cleverly concealed as necessary "game mechanics" - adjusting prices, marketing, wages, etc - that players generally don't realize they're being "taught" about business and finance, they're just having fun!
