BricksorClicks.com puts you in the role of CEO at a traditional toy manufacturer. The company, called ToyBlocks Co., must confront the challenges of launching an online sales channel while managing and maintaining their current traditional sales channels. The Kellogg Case Simulation Team, Knowledge Dynamics, and Powersim Corporation have partnered to develop BricksorClicks.com for the DFC 2000.

The Kellogg Case Simulation Team, under the sponsorship of Professor Mohan Sawhney, has worked to produce a web-based simulation game, "Bricksorclicks.com," for launch at DFC 2000. The goal of the team is to create a body of online simulations that deal with relevant real world situations which offer a more compelling, hands-on experience than traditional cases. The team's first effort, SimZine, which launched at DFC 1999, had over 800 individual users at over 6 business schools internationally.
