Task 2

The name of game that we are going to evaluate is Lemonade Tycoon. It is available in this link (http://www.download-free-games.com/simulation/lemonade_tycoon.htm ).
This game helps learner to manage a small business. The player need to mange many things to earn money from selling lemon and think cheerfully about shop expanse for example, player decides how much lemon and ice can be afforded based on city activities as well as the weather. Moreover, feedback can be displayed by using text and images so seller can improve his recipe in order to increase the profit.
I think the game deliver hidden mathematical skills to the learner also the game structured easily so, learner does not have to be computer professional to play and enjoy it. In addition, thinking logically to solve problems can be the most important advantage of this game. It has been proved that the games which include adventure and much logical process are the best choice for students. However, lack of mesmerize graphic interface can be one of disadvantage. In addition, many challengeable levels of the games should be considered to enable students' motivation. Although some part of the game includes creativity, advanced levels should have appropriate level of inspiration.
Although, aggression and violence issue about games may be acknowledged, using suitable games which benefits student's motivation as well as creativity could be powerful educational tool.
