Called CEO2 (available at www.ceo2-game.com), the game is more of a simulation program that puts a player in the role of a decision maker, say its creators.

Allianz and World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) have launched CEO2: a climate-conscious game which offers a peep into the decision making world of the chief executive.
