GAMEPLAY TIPS

  • If one of your loans goes into COLLECTIONS, you must use your payment card(s) to get it out of COLLECTIONS during one of your regular turns before bills are due.

  • Be sure that you have enough payment cards [Green cards] to cover your loans when it’s time to pay bills after every 3 turns.

  • Loans [Yellow cards] get cheaper to repay as your credit score improves. The loan payment cost is indicated by the color and number on the card.

  • Each NEW loan type [Yellow cards] (credit card, student loan, auto loan and home loan) gets you an additional action every turn...but make sure you will be able to make the payment when bills are due!
