Cash flow and debt in a textbook can feel abstract. In the game students have to choose whether to buy a deal or keep the cash, and immediately see the effect on their character's income, expenses and stress, which gives the class an easy starting point for discussion.
Split the students into groups of 2-6 and let each group play one round, which takes about 30-60 minutes. Keep some time at the end to discuss which decision grew Passive Income and which one squeezed cash. If a group is short of players, the room owner can fill the seats with NPCs.
The teacher needs no equipment: everyone opens the same website and joins the same room with a Room ID.
The teacher or a group representative creates a room and sends the Room ID to classmates to join. No sign-up is needed.
Draw 1 of 20 Thai careers, each with a different salary, expenses and debt, so students can compare their decisions.
