Gaming gets serious - Machiavelli’s Workshop launches online negotiation and strategy simulation
Edugames attract interest from around the world
Melbourne, 02 November 2004 - Machiavelli's Workshop today announced the launch of its negotiation and strategy simulation games website - Machiavelli's MindGym (www.machiavellisworkshop.com).

"In the lead-up to the launch we have received literally thousands of pre-registrations and expressions of interest from all over the world" said Scott Chamberlain, Managing Director of Machiavelli's Workshop. "we are seeing interest from individual gamers as well as enquiries from multinationals looking to incorporate the technology in their management and sales training programs".
