The Tesco challenge was to “throw at us every level and variation in the game during one session in order assess the realism and demands of the game”.
We did exactly that at their Daventry depot and the results below sum up what they thought.
Since then we have responded to the managers’ collective feedback and integrated most of their excellent suggestions, being careful not to sacrifice the essential simplicity of the game which has made it so appealing to teachers and trainers alike.
With feedback from schools, colleges and a wide spectrum of our business sponsors too, the game is now ready to go into production.
