Perhaps educational games are the best way to help mankind learn to tackle problems. I've seen menu useful games such as air-traffic control, city management simulators and strategy games. Anyone with a useful game in mind?

I remember my son coming back at weekend, playing City 2000. He was indulged in playing all types of parts, including mayor, planning for urban development, buying and selling estates, in the attempt to building wealth, and administrate city development. Educational games are a positive side of the virtue world.

Perhaps more educational games would be made to help empower people. It is interesting that these entertaining games can help any one appreciate the complexity of managing a city. I came across a US Army web site that helps young people experience being a medic in a battle field. It saves young medics from being overwhelmed in actual combat deployment. Cheers

I have not come across these kind of games and so really cannot comment on it. If you can help me with some links, it would be great. Anything constructive helps people to tackle problems easily.
