This paper adopts an historical perspective to view the development of business gaming software in the United Kingdom. It argues that, given its use and evolution over three decades, studying this particular software type can generate insights that can be transferred to educational software in general. It also highlights the extent of user‐developed software and the accompanying impact on the availability of technology to the user.
