Review abstracted by Capalive.com Professor Thomas Kosnik, Consulting Professor, Stanford School of Engineering, and Lecturer, Harvard Review abstracted by Capalive.com Professor Thomas Kosnik, Consulting Professor, Stanford School of Engineering, and Lecturer, Harvard Business School, Technology Today, CNBC-TV Cable 'Capitalism is a world class, hands-on learning experience which I've used at Stanford School of Engineering and Harvard Business School. Gamers not only learn the subtleties of growing an entrepreneurial business but also learn about leadership and team building necessary in any business situation.' 'Capitalism is very realistic and will allow the dynamics to change depending on whether you're selling a cola product, which is sort of a low tech-branded consumer good, or whether your selling consumer electronics or a PC.' Professor Drew Fudenberg Harvard University 'This game does an excellent job of modeling many of the key aspects of modern business. Not all aspects of it are realistic, but enough of them are that many sensible strategies are encouraged. In particular it's gratifying to me to see that the game rewards thinking about sources of long-term competitive advantage, be it from brand recognition, low production costs gained from learning-by-doing (a nice touch!), a monopoly on high quality inputs, or a big technological lead.'
Businessweek, October 21, 1996 Capitalism isn't just for those who aspire to be the next Michael Dell or Sam Walton.

As in the real world, players compete locally, in one city, or fight it out on the global stage. With so many possibilities, Capitalism is an intense strategy game, much like chess, where players must constantly think ahead.
As such, it could easily overwhelm novices. But by adjusting several factors-competency and managerial style of the computer-controlled rivals, for example, can be varied from very aggressive to conservative-gameplay can be suited to various styles and speed.
The game even allows a player to hire presidents to manage the day-to-day operations of different divisions so the player can concentrate on the big picture. Far Eastern Economic Review, September 26, 2002 The mass market isn't the only audience for Chan's games. Like Virtual U, Capitalism has made the leap from game room to classroom.
