Prosper Bay: Financial Literacy RPG
Prosper Bay is a fun-first financial literacy simulation RPG where players build a life in a vibrant coastal trading city.
Players earn income, manage obligations, save, invest, build reputation, and make meaningful choices that shape their future. There is no single “right” path—only tradeoffs, consequences, recovery, and growth.
Why We Built It
Financial literacy is often taught as abstract advice, worksheets, or warnings. Prosper Bay turns those concepts into lived gameplay.
Players learn by doing:
- Taking jobs
- Paying housing costs
- Managing limited time and energy
- Choosing whether to save, spend, or take risks
- Recovering from setbacks
- Seeing how decisions affect future opportunities
What Makes It Different
Prosper Bay is not a quiz game. It is a choice-driven life simulation where learning emerges through systems.
The design is built around four pillars:
- Player Agency & Meaningful Choice
- Consequences Through Systems, Not Scolding
- Fun-First, Game-Driven Experience
- Real-World Preparation in a Safe-to-Fail Environment
The goal is simple: help players build confidence with money decisions by practicing them in a world that is engaging, forgiving, and worth returning to.
Every choice. Your future. Your legacy.
