About the template

The Penny Game is a popular agile game to teach the importance of reducing batch sizing and the evils of large workloads. It helps people understand the time it takes to deliver value to a customer.

How to use this template

This game is ideally for 10 people plus the facilitator but can be scaled back to 4 people with the facilitator taking over the roles of the customer and the scribe. Each worker would then use their cell phone to start timing the start/stop time of themselves, while the facilitator tracks time from the first coin flipped/changed colour by the first worker... to the last penny flipped by the last worker.
