This article (and the concept of “business war games”) brought me back to one of the first computer games I ever played: Lemonade Stand on the Apple II.[1]
Sounds like Lemonade Stand was a simplified version of some of these games from the 50s.
40 years ago and I still remember the optimum price to charge for a drink ($0.11).

- nerdponx 4y agoI vaguely remember playing a Flash(?)-based version of this in the early 00s.
- munificent 4y agoI also have fond memories of Lemonade Stand. I think it's one of the games that gave me an abiding love of simulations.
- stolenmerch 4y agoVery fond memories of being a 3rd grader and playing a version of this on our classroom TRS-80. I'd get really excited when the weather turned "hot and dry' so I could jack the price and gouge my customers.
