Legacy Migration is the hardest scenario in Scrumagic. A water company's billing system runs on servers whose lease ends in eighteen weeks, and the job is to move it without changing a single invoice. The work is invisible, the stakes are exact to the cent, and the sponsor cannot see progress. This walkthrough covers the project, the people and the decisions, with no spoilers.
Hospital Data Platform is an expert scenario in Scrumagic. A hospital needs bed-occupancy and wait-time dashboards before winter pressure begins. The code works on clean samples and the real data does not. This walkthrough covers the project, the people and the decisions, with no spoilers.
Logistics API is an advanced scenario in Scrumagic. A freight company has a fixed budget and twelve weeks to launch a tracking and rate-quote API before its biggest partner goes live. The users are developers, and once they build on it, changing course gets expensive. This walkthrough covers the project, the people and the decisions, with no spoilers.
Donation Portal is an intermediate scenario in Scrumagic. A food bank has a fixed budget, a grant that expires with the giving season, and a board, a major donor and a volunteer coordinator who all want something in the first release. This walkthrough covers the project, the people and the decisions, with no spoilers.
The Scrum Guide names five values: commitment, focus, openness, respect and courage. They are not posters. The Guide says that when the team embodies them, transparency, inspection and adaptation come to life and build trust, and that every decision and step should reinforce them. Each value shows up as specific behaviour in the events, and each can be tested against what a team actually does.
Empirical process control means deciding from what has actually been observed instead of from a detailed plan made up front. Scrum rests on three ideas: transparency, so that the work can be seen; inspection, so that it is looked at often enough to notice problems; and adaptation, so that something changes when a problem shows. Remove any one and the other two stop working.
The Developer is where Scrum asks for honest estimates and real commitments. In Scrumagic you cast your own planning poker vote, break stories into tasks, report at the standup and demonstrate the increment, with a team that behaves like a real one. This post follows a run from the developer's chair, phase by phase, with no spoilers.
A first Scrumagic run takes you from choosing a project and a role to your first decision at a gate. You meet your team, open the first phase, read the inputs, watch the ceremony and decide. Then you stop, because the next step opens tomorrow. Here is what each screen shows and what to do on it.
Scrum took its name from rugby, through a 1986 article that argued product teams should move as a unit instead of passing work down a relay. It was shaped in the early 1990s, presented publicly in 1995, written down as the Scrum Guide in 2010 and revised several times since. Knowing the sequence explains why the framework is small and why its rules are firm.
In Scrumagic you play one of three roles for the whole run: Scrum Master, Product Owner or Developer. The AI plays the rest. The Scrum Master facilitates and removes blockers, the Product Owner decides what is built and in what order, and the Developer estimates and commits. This post explains what each role asks of you and who each suits.
Scrumagic is a Scrum training simulator. You take one role on a six-person team, such as Scrum Master, Product Owner or Developer, and AI teammates play the other five. You run a fictional project from the sponsor's first request to release, making the calls a real team would face, one step a day.
Scrum is a lightweight framework for solving complex problems in small steps. One small team works in fixed-length Sprints of a month or less, shows something usable at the end of each one, and uses what it learns to plan the next. This guide explains how that works, and where Scrum deliberately stops.
