I Play aLOAN!

Rationale:
•To make learning fun through a hands-on interactive approach, we have created an online game titled “aLOAN"
 • It is similar to the popular online game The Sims , whereby players get to manage a virtual persona and have to make financial decisions in the virtual “ALoan” city


 Contents:
•Simulated materialistic attractions in the real world-Status and popularity bars
 •System available for them to track their expenses
 •Simulated credit card mechanism of using discounts to get people to spend more
•Inclusion of “Invite Friends” function into the game as part of publicity for game

An example of a scene in the game when the player has to decide on the mode of payment

Advertising Our Campaign

Hi guys! How is your management on credit card expenditure going? Lately, Project Group SURPRISE has been focussing on publicising our project on credit card management and the following are some of the ideas that we have came about to raise public awareness! 1. Use of public posters Here is an example of some of the posters that we have came up with!

And possible places where the posters might be put up....

2. Publicity Video! To further attract more public attention to our project, we have came up with a video that relates to credit card debts. We are planning to spread these videos through Youtube and Facebook.



Do tell us what you guys think about our publicity campaign! =)
