DECADES

Short description, about 50 words

DECADES is a money life simulator by Aevest Studio, free in the browser. You start at 18 with a dealt hand and live one month at a time to old age. Each of its 1,312 cards is one real decision about money, from a first payslip to a loan shark at the door.

Long description, about 150 words

DECADES is a money life simulator by Aevest Studio. You are 18, dealt a family, a hometown and a bit of luck, and you live the next sixty years one month at a time. The months deal cards: a job offer, a wedding, a flood, a friend who needs a guarantor. You choose, the ledger moves, and a one-line lesson says why.

The Malaysia edition plays in ringgit, with EPF, PTPTN, takaful and the ah long. The International edition plays the same life in dollars, and a Malay beta covers part of the deck. Around the 1,312 cards sit jobs, rent, a stock market, businesses and up to six homes. Every life ends with a grade and a plain reading of your choices.

DECADES is free in any modern browser, with no sign-up, and the Android app is in a closed test on Google Play. Every company, person and price is invented, and nothing is financial advice.
