Our latest feature, the Wealth Whiz Quiz, transforms the Study option in the budget game into an interactive and educational experience, perfect for weekend learning.
Why Add a Quiz Mini-Game?
The Wealth Whiz Quiz is designed to make financial literacy exciting for students while reinforcing essential concepts. It turns studying into a fun, game show-style challenge, helping your students learn and earn rewards in the game.
How It Works
When your students choose Study/Professional Development as their weekend activity in the Budget Game, the Wealth Whiz Quiz launches, immersing them in a dynamic 10-question challenge. Here’s what they’ll experience:
- Game Show-Style Interface
Students will step onto a vibrant game show stage, hosted by Tia, a lively and animated character who reacts to their performance in real time. Her poses—neutral, jubilant, nervous, or even embarrassed—will reflect how well they’re doing, adding a layer of fun and motivation. - Dynamic Gameplay
- Students will answer 10 multiple-choice questions, randomly selected from a pool of financial literacy concepts.
- They’ll have 60 seconds to complete the quiz, with a timer adding a bit of friendly pressure.
- Immediate feedback after each question shows “Correct!” or “Incorrect!” before sliding to the next one.
- Scoring System
- 20 bonus points for every correct answer.
- 5 points deducted for incorrect answers.
- Points are added directly to their game savings goal or emergency fund bonuses, helping reinforce the importance of financial habits.
- End-of-Game Stats
At the end of the game, students will see a summary of their performance, including:- Questions Attempted
- Correct Answers
- Percent Accuracy
- Bonus Points Earned
