Practice the calls CFOs make, before you have to make them for real.
The CFO Game is a decision simulator: you sit in the finance chair of a fictional company and make the calls a CFO really makes. Every choice moves one number on screen, EVA (economic value added), and a Board Chair reacts to what you did.
Start playing in about 90 seconds. No setup, no account.
HOW A DECISION WORKS
• Read the situation: cash is trapped, the credit rating is at risk, a project needs funding.
• Move the levers in a visual mini-game and watch EVA respond live.
• Close the quarter: your grade (A to F) stamps in, the Board Chair gives a one-line verdict, and you see your rank in a simulated field of CFOs.
• Read the report: what you did, what a strong CFO would weigh, and the concept behind it.
About five minutes per decision.
NEW: TEAM GAMES WITH A LIVE DASHBOARD
• Design the game: industry, company size, difficulty and length (3, 5 or 10 decisions).
• Team Pass: priced per player, in packs of 5, 10, 25 or 50. Pay once and share one invite link. Players join with their name and play in their browser until the end of next month. No app, no account.
• Live dashboard: who joined, who finished, and every player's decisions, grades and value created.
• Team analysis: how the team graded on each decision, the top call, and debrief questions.
• Results PDF, results image and CSV export. Results are recorded as players play and cannot be edited.
• Classes and organizations with more than 50 people: the same price per participant, invoiced through accredited training providers (coming soon).
THE WEEKLY CFO CUP
Every Monday a new free Cup appears on the main menu: three decisions, one company, one set of market shocks, identical for everyone in the world that week. Share your result card and keep your weekly streak alive.
PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE
Finish a full Pro run or a team game and get a certificate PDF in your name with your grade, EVA score, career rank, date and a verification link. One tap adds it to LinkedIn. A performance certificate from the game, not an accredited qualification.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Fairer grades: every decision is now graded against the best call available in that exact situation. A market shock can still cost the company value, but it no longer decides your grade. Limit the damage well and you earn an A.
• The result screen shows the best call available that quarter and how you compare with the median CFO.
• Your "ahead of X% of CFOs" ranking and your certificate now reflect the quality of your decisions.
• Apple's own rating prompt, a privacy policy link in Settings, and clearer team-game messages.
• Team results PDF now shows Arabic player names; long names no longer disappear on the results image.
• Fixes: small companies could not finish some Value City quarters; the "Where the number came from" breakdown now always adds up.
