Revas Business Simulation Games is a web-based learning platform where participants run virtual companies, compete in a shared market, and analyze results and business problems. Learners can create jobs, hire employees, set pay, buy equipment, invest in traditional or online advertising, and set prices. Revas offers simulations for different industries and a Project Management simulation for teaching project management. The platform is aimed at businesses, universities, schools, and entrepreneurship classes. Participants access simulations through an internet browser, available 24/7 from anywhere. An instructor can order a demo and complete three rounds of any simulation at no cost. Annual subscriptions provide access for 12 months from purchase.
