■Student Feedback from the Outreach Class *Excerpts*
① Impressions of Playing the Game
- It was good that it taught us the importance of having various experiences in life.
- I was happy that I was able to achieve all my desired goals both times. I think the second time went better because I made plans here and there and bought insurance.
- I realized it was difficult, with money running out if I didn't think carefully (leading to debt in reality), and children's wishes not being fulfilled.
- Time ran out faster than money, so I decided to live each day without wasting it.
② Advice to Your Future Adult Self Based on What You Learned in the Game
- If you plan and think about how to use your money and time, you can definitely do what you like.
- It's good to do what you like, but I think you should also consider your life beyond that.
- I want you to live a life without regrets. Challenge yourself with various things!
- In the game, I could live life twice, but in reality, you only get one chance, so I decided to do what I want to do.
