Neon Money Club has recently released an exciting new game that aims to educate players about the fundamentals of finance in an innovative and engaging way. Called "Get The Bag," the game challenges players' financial knowledge through various obstacles and trivia questions.
The idea for the game was inspired by the success of Google's "No Internet Game," and it features an interactive resource center focused on financial wellness. Players are guided by Freddy, a lovable polar bear, as he navigates through financial challenges such as bad credit, payday loans, and day trading. Through his journey, players learn important financial concepts and improve their financial literacy.
Luke Bailey, the co-founder and CEO of Neon Money Club, describes the game as "revolutionary" and believes it will provide valuable education and knowledge to help people confidently manage their money in today's unstable economy. "Neon Money Club doesn't just promote financial literacy; we revolutionize it," Bailey stated in a press release shared with BLACK ENTERPRISE.
The team at Neon Money Club is no stranger to creating viral games with a financial twist. In 2024, they introduced Score, a Valentine's Day-themed dating app that focuses on credit. Bailey explains that the app's goal is to elevate the discussion around financial health, which has been stagnant for decades.
Their mission is to go beyond traditional methods of teaching financial wellness and make it culturally relevant. The game "Get The Bag" is a perfect example of this mission, as it brings financial education to the forefront in a fun and engaging way. Jackie Liao, Neon's CPO, explains that financial education often feels like a chore, but it doesn't have to be that way. In a time when financial anxiety is at an all-time high, providing free and engaging resources is crucial. "Get The Bag" is not just a game; it's a tool to empower people to take control of their finances, alleviate stress, and build a brighter financial future with confidence.
The team at Neon drew inspiration from the late fashion designer and entrepreneur, Virgil Abloh, who created "FREE-GAME," a center aimed at nurturing young design talent. In addition to the game, Neon also offers online lectures and tools to help players sustain financial wellness.
With "Get The Bag," Neon is pushing boundaries in the world of financial education, making it more accessible and engaging for players. Their ultimate goal is to empower people to take control of their finances, especially among the younger generation, where financial anxiety is prevalent. By providing free and engaging resources, Neon hopes to bridge the gap and create a brighter financial future for all.
