Money Land
Money is just one of the many things that we need to survive in this world, but thankfully there are many ways to make it as shown in Money Land. Unfortunately, nothing is ever as easy as it is shown in video games. This one puts you in the role of an unnamed blue guy who finds himself with easy access to constantly spawning money. He decides to collect as much as he can and then invest in the local businesses. As a result, the economy begins to grow and he gains even more money which he can put towards more investments. Perhaps with enough ventures in play, he can finally make enough money to stop needing it.
About Money Land
People should know more about economics and finances, and games are a great way to learn about them. While this game may not be the best example of reality, it's certainly good for learning the basics. The main concept involves taking money from one place and putting it somewhere else. You can watch your investments grow until they become fruitful enough to spend their profits elsewhere. This is how you'll get to turn this flat land into a money land so that you can hopefully spread the wealth around and watch the city grow.

The goal is to collect enough money to invest in every business and expand the town across the level. There are no obstacles or time constraints, you just need to run around the city to collect the money personally. The amount you can carry at once is shown in the top left corner of the screen and each area/business shows how much money they need to open and how much they generate once they are open. Once you've paid for all the expansions, you can move on to the next level.
Each level starts with the blue guy standing on a part of the road which will constantly generate a certain amount of money. You can collect it by simply running up to it and it will stack behind your back. You can then take your money to any grayed-out businesses and stand in front to invest. Once fully invested, the business will start generating a certain amount every second which you can then collect as well. You can also stand in green upgrade spots to pay for business improvements or personal improvements so that you can move faster and carry more money. You can expand the city by standing in front of road barriers and investing until they are removed.
Throughout the city, you can find temporary power-ups like vehicles to move fast and carry more, and icons to give you greater profits or greater capacity.
Tips and Tricks
You'll need to take time since while the businesses generate money on their own, you still need to collect it personally and take it around the city. It's a gradual experience that is nice and satisfying as you watch the city grow along with your profits. Start with small businesses and work your way up.
