When to use it
When information keeps changing and the original plan may no longer work.
How to use it
Observe, interpret information, decide and act, then update your judgment using the outcome.
A real-life example

Which move changed your later choices? If conditions changed, would the same approach still work? What evidence would you need to check before applying the relationships in this game to real life?
Games are simplified practice environments for exploring tools and when to use them. Completing a game does not demonstrate mastery and is not a personality or professional assessment.
