Clocking In
Clocking in is part of our unique and original set of business games. It is set in the middle ages, at the exact time in which a great inventor discovers how to make the first mechanical clock in history. Participants will put themselves in the shoes of the inventor to fulfill the mission: sell clocks to the King. To achieve this, the inventor must develop his skills as a negotiator, obtaining raw materials, building clocks, and selling them.
