## Feedback from Children Who Attended the Outreach Class (Excerpts)
### ① Impressions of playing the game
- I chose to be a civil servant the first time, but when I challenged myself to be a freelancer the second time, I failed, so I realized that there are risks involved when you challenge yourself in life.
- I was able to easily learn what life can be like while enjoying the game. I want to do my best in real life too.
- It was difficult to consider both what I wanted to do and my child's wishes. But I was able to fulfill one of my child's wishes and one of my own.
- The second time, I scored higher than the first time. I realized that knowing what's ahead makes life easier.
- It felt like I was really experiencing life, and as I played, I felt like "I should have done this..." which was educational.
### ② Advice to my adult self based on what I learned in the game
- Life is only once, so I want you to live your life without regrets.
- If you ever have a problem, don't decide immediately. Imagine what will happen next and try to make your life a good one. You can't live only by what you want to do!
- Having children and getting married brings a lot of fun and good things, but it costs a lot of money, so think carefully. You should get insurance.
- I learned that if you do what you want first, you might fail later. I think it's good to do what you want after you've achieved something!
- Life is yours, so let's have fun!
