This games are so thought over, that the CEO may draw conclusions: can the player lead the company to a financial collapse or a to a brighter future. All the result depends on the executive and it is player. Probably very soon even the interviews will take place at a computer desk with usage of some game simulators!

In addition almost every MMO game can help to improve level of English or another foreign language. The players often text to each other and communicate in English, may be not always in a correct form but it is still English. And who have said that it is bad to know the dialect words and abbreviations? In English-speaking countries it will definitely help people a lot. Well if you have desire to learn any other language there are a bunch of games, which are aimed directly at foreign language. These games helps you easily to remember words, expressions, as well as take tests and it is better than waste your time in social networks surfing other people photos, so just try it!

And there are games that will help you to improve the knowledge of a geography and a history. For example a variety of online games will test your knowledge of geography, where you have a point on the map and you have to guess the country or the flag or you have the country and you must remember the capital, or you have the famous attractions and you should choose the city in which they are located. Also there are games for grown ups, where history and geography will help you to win. For example, strategic games which repeat a particular period of the history where player’s freedom of actions are limited in order to preserve the historical authenticity. So they can be called an interactive tutorial of the history.
