A simulation game is a game that contains a mixture of skill, chance, and strategy to simulate an aspect of reality, such as a stock exchange. Simulation gaming has its largest application in the world of computers with people learning by simulation. It has been used extensively as an effective way to generate new and more complex behavior among participants (eg. to engender courage among participants exposed to fearful conditions). One notable example is the use of Ropes Course challenge elements to spawn new "outside the box" thinking among corporate executives. When deftly used, simulation gaming can produce results which eclipse many other forms of training.
In computer games, simulation game describes a diverse super-category of video games. Some simulation games are intended to simulate the real world; others are intended to simulate a fictional world; still others (The Sims 2 for example) are designed to be able to do both.
