Usually, I'm not particularly eager to purchase materials for test preparation, but I feel this is worth every penny. Most of the guide/advice (even on prep lounge) about Imbellus just emphasized the general idea. This guide goes very deep into each scenario and tackles it in very detailed directions. The benefit of having this guide is that you can understand the game before getting an invitation from the company/game started. Thus you will be able to apply the best strategies step by step for each scenario that you will get. It also includes applicable tips from successful candidates. 100% recommended. Update: Francesco also kindly sends updated version of this file so there is no harm at all for purchasing it earlier. The updated file that I got includes many more comprehensive scenarios

If you have basic the basic ability to google, this isn't not worth it. Both the powerpoint/the excel are basic and not quite worth my money; the description mentioned that it would give "strategies" to address the games, but it did not provide anything substantial but instead just told me to effectively plan before I do. Frankly, I've read through multiple online medium articles with the same/more content. (There are obviously more online free guides, but these two https://www.myconsultingoffer.org/case-study-interview-prep/mckinsey-digital-assessment/ , https://hackingthecaseinterview.thinkific.com/pages/mckinsey-digital-assessment should be good enough)

Hi Alice,

Thanks for your feedback, I am sorry to see you did not find the guide useful.

I always look to improve the guide and totally respect your feedback. However I was a bit surprised that you compared two links with generic advice to a 111-page guide coming with Excel and PowerPoint templates and a full description of all games, unlike the links above.

In terms of the strategies to address the games, on pages 34 to 45 you can find the steps to perform well in each of the 4 games. I found it unclear why you summarized those 12 pages with “just told me to effectively plan”, as I divide the games into 16 specific steps you can follow to win them with details for each.

As of today, the following are a few of the areas covered by the guide compared to what reported in the links above:

• Step-by-step strategy to follow for each of the possible Scenarios
• Screenshots and explanations for each of the games
• Excel template to structure all the ecosystem species
• Food Chain template to structure all the ecosystem species
• Steps to improve on the 5 skills tested by the Imbellus
• Examples of chains working and not working for the Ecosystem Management game
• Rules of the games for the Ecosystem Management game
• Advise from previous candidates that took the game and FAQ on most common questions
• 12-hour guaranteed reply if you have any questions or need additional material/help

Hope this helps to clarify the additional content of the guide.

As mentioned in the pdf, I am always happy to help candidates and send in advance the additional material I am working on and I reply within 12 hours. I will have an updated version of the Excel soon and I would be happy to share it if you want to reach out.

Best,
Francesco

This is the best guide that I have ever seen for an assessment. The Imbellus Game is very different from other consulting assessments, and Francesco's expertise shone through as I studied the guide. It started with a bit of background on why the Imbellus test is used instead of the PST. It then goes onto describe the game and what is involved so you will know exactly what to expect on the day. The guide then provides tips on how to master the game and score very highly. Finally, it provides support and guidance on what a candidate can do to improve their skill level. Thanks very much Francesco, with this guide I can be confident in succeeding with McKinsey!
