A simulation game is "a game that contains a mixture of skill, chance, and strategy to simulate an aspect of reality, such as a stock exchange".
 Similarly, Finnish author Virpi Ruohomäki states that "a simulation game combines the features of a game (competition, cooperation, rules, participants, roles) with those of a simulation (incorporation of critical features of reality).
 A game is a simulation game if its rules refer to an empirical model of reality."
 A properly built simulation game used to teach or learn economics would closely follow the assumptions and rules of the theoretical models within this discipline.
