SNOWBANK
A game from Core Systems Asset Factory. Genre: Action, Educational. Free.
SNOWBANK is a game, free to play in the browser.
Your savings are a snowball. Your debt is an avalanche. Steer one working life, from 22 to 67, down one mountain. The snowball is your savings, and it grows on its own as it rolls: that is compound interest, and you can watch it happen. Payday adds to it once a year. Everything you spend comes off it. Above you, your debt is an avalanche growing at 24% a year, and when it gets big next to your pay, it catches you.
Hold THROW to fling your own snow back up the mountain and pay it down. Made for Zoud GameLab (theme: Make FinLit Fun). One life takes about three minutes. What you roll through Fresh powder: side income. Stalls: memories for sale. Some take cash, which comes off your ball. Others are PAY LATER: the price goes on the card and feeds the avalanche. You choose which ones you roll through.
Surprise bills: a car repair, a hospital stay, a lost job. Your savings cover them if they can. If they cannot, the rest goes on the card. Courses: they cost a little now and raise your pay for the rest of your life. Golden 10x! ramps: scams, and they pull you toward them. Steer away. Market crashes: your ball shrinks, on paper. Hold on and it grows back.
