InvestNuts
A free game that shows kids and teens how risk and reward work. With nuts instead of money.
Store figures, September 2026. Web players not counted.
Investing sounds like boring grown-up stuff. Here it is a squirrel planting its forest.
Plant nuts, grow trees, survive the winters. Over ten in-game years, players feel what risk, return and diversification mean. A lexicon explains the terms.
With our game app, we enable children and youths to access the financial world in a playful way.
Spieleratgeber NRW calls the graphics and game principle child-friendly, with a clear focus on the chances and risks of investing.
