NMSU Extension launches web version of financial literacy game

Managing money can be scary, and many aspects of financial literacy, such as credit scores, can lead to more questions than answers. A team from the New Mexico State University Cooperative Extension Service has launched a web version of the financial literacy game “Night of the Living Debt” to help solve those problems.

The media production team from NMSU’s Innovation Media Research and Extension and Learning Games Lab in the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences developed the new web version with support from the Extension Foundation’s New Technologies in Agricultural Extension, in partnership with the University of Idaho Extension. In 2016, the original iPad version of the game was produced with support from CoBank and is still available.
