In order to solve the problems of modern society, it is important to improve the quality of democratic citizens such as democratic attitude and function and for example, reasonable and democratic ability to solve problems, the capacity for decision-making, the dignity of man, communication, and compromise. If the network simulation game for education that has the advantages of simulation and the game and network are used, it may be helpful for the education of democratic citizens for improving the quality of democratic citizens. In this research, the flexible database manipulating tool is added to make use of the game corresponding to the level of the learner and the needs of teacher and situation, unlike existing games.
