I am looking for examples of 'career development' games. By that I mean games that allow players/students to simulate a career path journey through life, learning about career options in a specific field (such as medicine, or whatever) and making choices that influence their success in such a career. If you know of any examples of such games, I'd appreciate if you would mention the title or a web link to any such games. I don't even care much whether you think a particular game is good; I'm just looking for ideas and examples of game mechanics in this genre. The old Hasbro 'Game of Life' is a generic example of the sort of game I'm seeking. My hope is to develop a game about careers in the aerospace industry. Thanks!
Followup, here's what I've found so far (in case this is useful to others):
Great ideas so far!. I have some as well i will add. You could have students make flashcards and then have them write down different ideas about careers. I also like how you include the sims 4 this will be a great tool.
Thanks for the flashcards idea Caroline!
