Share With Your School"It does not look like a personal finance game. It reminded us of space invaders. My opinion of the game went from "this has nothing to do with finance" to "this has everything to do with personal finance."
"The game helped me understand more how tax calculations work and why the federal government may owe me money, in addition to how things like 401k and budgets all play a part."
"The kids loved playing the game and one of my kids was really competitive with it. He wanted to make sure he won the number one spot in my class."
