Financial literacy is a significant challenge in Georgia, even for adults. Basic skills like saving, budgeting and money management are rarely taught in engaging ways, making it hard for kids to understand essential financial concepts. Bank of Georgia recognized the need to tackle this problem by focusing on the next generation. Still, the challenge was to develop an approach that would resonate with kids, spark their curiosity, and encourage them to actively engage in financial learning.
To overcome this challenge, we adopted a game-based approach, following psychologists' recommendations that children learn best through play. We created "Other Universe," a cosmic adventure game embedded in sCoolApp. Kids could create avatars and complete missions that taught essential financial skills like saving and budgeting, all while navigating a fun, interactive storyline. The educational content was deeply woven into the gameplay, making the learning process almost invisible. Now, kids are not just learning about finance but actively applying their knowledge.
Characters assign missions to kids, and after each task, they collect glitters to unlock the next step. Together, they tackle 80 fun financial and logical tasks.
Kids can also create their own avatars to play with. After collecting 300 glitters, they gain access to three sets of items to personalize and upgrade their avatars.
