Audit Game: The Traitor

Students apply the knowledge they have gained in model audit situations. They work in teams and solve tasks that closely reflect real-world practice. Here you will find the game instructions and the materials to print and assemble it yourself.

Game board

The game follows the real course of an audit

The team moves across the board from the scenario to the final evaluation. Each phase corresponds to one step of a real audit.

How to assemble the game

Print the game yourself

You can easily print the game yourself. All you need is a standard printer for the board and cards and a 3D printer for the game pieces.

  1. 1

    Printing the board

    A3 landscape at 100% scale, without reduction. Ideally on heavier matt paper.

  2. 2

    Printing the game pieces

    Six STL files for 3D printing, approximately 39 mm tall. Do not change the size, as the base must fit the spaces on the board.

  3. 3

    Printing the cards

    Print the scenario cards double-sided, flipping on the short edge. For single-sided printing, the odd pages are sufficient.

  4. Trial game

    Check that the game pieces fit on the spaces and that the detour arrows are easy to understand.
