Navigation through the game’s pages is done through tabbed pages.
The game version determines which
pages are available.
The status bar provides succinct information for the
game leader and the students.

After login, you may explore several aspects of the starting position: welfare components...

...the policies pursued in one’s own country and in all other countries...

...economic data...

...and for instance government accounts.

To play the game, go to the ‘Policy’ tab.
The aim of the game is to add welvare and become the
country in the world with the highest welfare. The students
are governments of the countries and have economic policy tools at their disposal
that they may use to attempt to maximise welfare. The may,
among other, change tax rates, the level over
government consumption and the number of civil servants.

This is where you enter your desired policy
changes
![Page 9: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
To prevent policy tools from being used inappropriately, you have to obey certain boundaries. This is why the size of policy
interventions in each game round is subject to boundaries.
![Page 10: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
If your team is ready entering your policy
interventions, you submit them.
![Page 11: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Before the economic consequences of the policy mix can be calculated, all countries must submit their policy intentions. This follows from the interdependency between the economies of the
countries. In some versions of the game, these interdependencies only take the form of trade flows, but bilateral capital flows are also possible (depending ojn the game version). As a consequence, the economy of
a country is also influenced by policies in the other countries.
Countries 1, 3 and 4 have submitted
their policies, country 2 has yet
to submit.
![Page 12: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
If all countries have submitted their policies (or if the game leader started a new game period
manually), the consequences of the economic policies are calculated.All players are informed
when the data for the new period is available via a
message in the status bar.
![Page 13: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
You may study the economic consequences of your policies. Country 3 has the highest welfare (the citizens of country 3 have the highest welvare and
have more than 100.00 welfare points).
A new game period has begun. The data of previous game rounds
remain accessible.
You have the possibility to view all available data in 1 file, that can
subsequently be easily printed or saved.
![Page 14: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
You may access the historical overviews of all countries in the world.
By clicking the ‘History’ tab, historical overviews
may be accessed
![Page 15: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
There is a possibility to print the historical data
or save it.
![Page 16: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
This graph shows which welfare components have contributed to an
increase or a fall in welfare. Country 4 is not performing well: welfare has
decline in round 1.
You may view several graphs for all countries, using the ‘Graph’
tab
![Page 17: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Country 3 did raise welfare.Note: players may view the tables and graphs of all countries. This enables
them to learn from the policy mixes of the other countries.
The graphs may be viewed together in one file to facilitate
printing.
![Page 18: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
You may access a graph that depicts aggregate supply and demand in the product market. This graph can be used to analyse the main economic developments in their
country.
![Page 19: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
In conjunction with the product market graph, an expert system is available that provides you with the main explanations for the shifts in the supply and
demand lines.
![Page 20: The countries all have the same login name, but have a unique password](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062422/56812d7c550346895d9290a6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
After analysing the economic situation in their own country (as well as eyeing other countries), the graphs and the historical context, you are ready to formulate their
next period’s policy mix.This closes the policy circle. In this manner,
up to a maximum of 24 rounds may be played.
