For At-Home Players

The game is set to be a standard price and ultimately works to expand your vision of what opportunity looks like. From social media to video gaming, we all have friends or connections overseas, but have you ever thought how you might work with that person? No board game can teach you everything there is to know about entrepreneurship, but the obstacles and rewards in the game are almost all taken from real-life scenarios, and the idea is to encourage players to think about building their ideal lifestyle, and to not be limited by geographic location. Global commerce is insanely easy to access, even for the leanest start-up. And this game will get you thinking how to be a part of global entrepreneurship.

For Players in a KO Course

Accompanying the course and curriculum is an educational board game designed specifically to resonate with students, primarily at the high school and college levels. For those students most interested, the content can be adapted into a middle-school program. As students play the game, they will be able to better apply the lessons learned in the course.

ADULTS

For those just starting their career, and especially in an uncertain economic climate, having adaptable skills is crucial to landing your dream career or starting your dream business.

STUDENTS

You probably don’t realize what you spend your free time on can be the foundation of a small business. Learn 21st century skills and turn your hobbies into career possibilities.

PARENTS

Parents want the best for their kids, but in many cases, the school system doesn’t provide the true skills necessary for them to be competitive in the job market. Know Opportunity can help.

EDUCATORS

We’ve worked with many educators over the past few years to understand needs, frustrations, and challenges in the classroom. Our board game and curriculum can help address these issues.

Can This Help Me Get A Job?

That’s a pretty loaded question. We don’t claim this helps you get a job. But playing the game can help open your eyes to possibilities you’ve never considered. You’ll look at your relationships with friends differently, and see opportunity through a different lens. Plus, the game gets you comfortable with being uncomfortable.

Who is Know Opportunity Meant For?

Short answer: Everybody. Well, most people. Originally, Know Opportunity was designed for the high school classroom. There are a lot of elements that have proven valuable to an academic setting. But over the past few years, we’ve sent the game out to hundreds of players, high schools, board game shops and more to test and receive feedback. The verdict? For those looking for fun, this is a fun board game. And educators find that the design keeps students engaged, while the curriculum helps build crucial business skills. Because it’s been used by so many sources, we put together a page to help you see how Know Opportunity might be right for you.

How Many People Can Play?

The game comfortably allows up to six people. With a full table, you will see much more engagement and competitiveness! However, if you’d like to have a shorter play time, we recommend four people to a game.
