Let's get to it!WHAT THIS PROJECT IS ABOUT
This is a financial-education game, where users can purchase properties like real estate, crypto currencies, stocks and cars whose value fluctuates depending in real-life-based events. The fun comes when users notice that purchasing properties and having them as a commodity may improve their life quality for a few rounds, but they soon will be ruined financially. Turning them into assets is what makes them trully reach (like in real life). And of course, users can use debt to buy properties (which has the purpose of showing how much faster is to get rich if you use debt the right way).

Deployment
Github
React native
Expo
JavaScript
Redux
Adobe Xd
This is a multi-platform app (works for Android, iOS and the web). It was built in react native in an Expo-managed workflow using JavaScript. It was designed using Adobe Xd. The code is stored in a Github repository. The code needs to have a redux store to let components communicate between them.

Let me know it!Principal features
Home page
In the home page, users can view their progress indicators at the top, which tells how close or far users are from a great life quality and herritage, as well as how much debt they have (they loose if the debt reaches 100M and have not enough money to pay for it). Then, users can view their properties in detail to find out how well they are doing. At the bottom, users can find their properties as a list divided by assets and commodities.
Turn a property into an asset or commodity
Once users buy a property, they can turn it into an asset to increase their herritage or leave it as a commodity to increase their life quality.
Property store
The store is the place where users can buy new properties. The value shown below the image fluctuates according to the events (explained bellow), so buy properties before they get expensive!
Property details
Before buying a property, users should check out the property's stats to make sure they are making a good investment (in case they are buying it as an asset).
Events
People get rich with time as their properties produce positive cashflow or capital gains. This game not only allows for time to pass (which increases debt), but it has several real-life-based events that directly impact the value and cashflow or all properties with multipliers.
