How to Play Federal Reserve Game
Manage the national economy by balancing money printing with its consequences!
Click the "Print Money" button to add money to the economy.
Watch how national debt, inflation, public trust, and economic growth change.
Try to achieve the lowest score possible over the 3-minute game period.
Game Mechanics
The national debt increases automatically over time.
Printing money temporarily slows down the debt increase but has other effects.
Printing too much money too quickly increases inflation and decreases public trust.
High inflation accelerates debt growth.
Low public trust makes it harder to manage debt.
Economic growth decreases if you don't print money regularly.
Printing money increases economic growth, but be careful of inflation and public trust.
The real-life debt clock increases faster than the game debt.
The game lasts for 3 minutes.
Scoring
Lower score is better.
Your score is calculated based on final debt, money printed, inflation, public trust, real-life debt, and economic growth.
High debt, excessive money printing, high inflation, and low public trust increase your score.
Low economic growth heavily penalizes your score.
Tips
Find the right balance between printing money and managing its consequences.
Monitor all economic indicators closely.
Don't print money too rapidly, but don't let economic growth stagnate either.
Try to maintain public trust to keep debt manageable.
Aim for steady, sustainable economic growth.
