Business Battle: Wrainbo's Fantasy Strategy Game for Business Concepts

Business Battle is a turn-based strategy game for college students and adults. It was first developed by Duke University MBA alumni and a former McKinsey manager, and it is set in lands of wizards and steampunk robots. Players run a magic shop, produce and trade clothing products with fantasy customers such as orcs and goblins, and cast business spells to compete with robots and maximize profit.

The learning topics are economics, marketing management, operations management, financial management and statistics, including regression. A Crystal Ball tool shows analytics charts that fit each decision, from demand charts to operations quality control, and players compare the return on investment of the options before choosing. Up to three spells can go into each battle to lift the top and bottom line. Products work like troops in this game: each has strengths and weaknesses, the right mix maximizes profit, and learning what customers prefer is the key to trading well.

Campaign mode has 10 fully developed levels, each with a different business concept, and Arena mode lets players test their skills against others. The game includes AI-enabled assessment that gives personalized feedback, and an embedded library that explains the concepts and links them to real business cases. Players who show proficiency earn a digital badge for business acumen. A spell can, for example, attract more customers, improve operations efficiency or strengthen the company's finances, and each spell choice has to be weighed against what the charts show.

Wrainbo, founded in 2015, built a customizable mobile learning platform powered by AI analytics, and Business Battle was its first game. In 2017 the game was available on Google Play.
