We started by creating a strategy that focused on quality, meaning our products would be the best in the industry but also the most expensive ones.
The industry I played on was selling digital cameras. My co-managers and I read it and implemented our strategy based on the manual. The manual is helpful is some ways but do not rely on it 100%. Read the manual, you might be tested on it. The point is, even if your decisions are the best according to your strategy, it won be, if all the other companies are making decisions that don't even make sense to you but does make sense for the program.
Having said that you have to keep in mind that any decisions made by you will be entered as input for the different algorithms in the program, these algorithms make comparisons among the other companies and choose what the program considers to be the best. Well, that is 90% true, the remaining 10% is the fact that it is a game which means that as with any other computer game, it is a program, a program that responds to the user's inputs. Almost any professor would say that there is no secret to win this game it all depends on the decisions made by the companies competing in the game.
