May Newsletter
|
In February, we brought you the Practice Paths – PM Island MVP. Feedback was overwhelmingly positive, so I built the first full-scale game for the People Domain, "People Skills.” This month, newsletter subscribers can get a sneak peek at the “Process Underground” Practice Path game.

"Process Underground" Practice Path - Help Milo master the process domain and provide for his family
|
|
In “Process Underground,” you will step into the shoes of Milo, a determined and resourceful mouse. Milo is on a mission to navigate the process domain of the PMP exam. He needs your help to earn money for his low-income family by answering challenging project management questions correctly.
|
|
|
|
However beware, Milo’s team is as tricky as they come, featuring characters like Rat, the ambitious Business Analyst; Canary, the distracted Developer; Dog, the cautious QA; Cat, the suspiciously friendly UX Designer; and Weasel, the ever-changing Architect. Each character brings unique challenges and interactions that will test your project management skills to the fullest.
|
|
|
|
Participating in this early access phase will give you a sneak peek at our new game and hopefully provide valuable feedback that will shape its final release.Don’t miss out on this unique opportunity to enhance your PMP exam preparation while having fun navigating the adventures of Milo and his team.
|
|
I still need to add a few more questions and the end screen in not in place yet. However, please let me know if you spot any issues in the game, and I will do my best to correct them promptly. Once a few newsletter readers have played it, I will announce it on LinkedIn.
