How I Use It
When I am teaching lessons about money management, this would be perfect to hook the students in to understanding the importance of saving some money.
My Take
The scenarios are realistic, but at certain points in the game, you need to link to social media, namely Facebook and Twitter. So, since they're blocked in my school, the game can never be completed. It's frustrating.
