Smart Decisions
A game about architecting modern software systems
Smart Decisions is a game that simulates the design process of software systems and promotes learning about it in a fun way.
The game is based on Attribute-Driven Design (ADD), which is a method from the Software Engineering Institute that allows complex architectures to be designed in a predictable and efficient way.
You just need to download and print the game materials which include the game board, game scenario, playing cards, and game scorecard.
You also need to download a presentation that will help you guide the game session.
Alternatively, if you are looking for a guided session you can request training and we will be happy to conduct it with your team.
Smart Decisions can be played by software architects, software and embedded engineers, data scientists, students, and anyone who is interested in learning about software architecture design techniques and how they can be applied in the design of software systems with modern technologies like Big Data, Machine Learning or Internet of Things.
The game can be played by a minimum of two players (although, the more the merrier!) who compete against each other.
Yes, it is! We believe that the game's open source model helps the software development community improve design skills and create more and better software.
And, if you like it, we welcome your feedback or contributions.
