Well Cindy you asked for feedback.....
I'll pass.
I actually thought this was a good educational tool. Let us go for the laws.
I thought it was well done.
FICO scoring and financial information is, frankly, boring to most people. Putting it in this format, and including "did you know" moments of other facts is a good approach to the subject. The availability of the reasons why that answer is correct will help people who come in with misunderstandings.
I thought the repetition of "Pay your bills on time" was an important feature. Making people aware of that cardinal rule is a key objective of this game.
For what I think the objective is it's brilliant.
Educational tool, not something for people who been on this forum for years especially in this particular board, but as a whole I think there was some good information and the presentation was cute.
I thought it was really cute! The "debtorites" and the evil Debt Star 
Made me smile and I learned a thing or two....
I thought that in general, the questions were great. They're very much the type of questions that we answer frequently for newcomers to the forum, and they address a lot of misconceptions about credit.
There's one question that should be reworded. The correct answer states that revolving balances should "be very low as a percent of your revolving balances, but not 0." "Revolving balances" should be "credit limits." The correction still leaves the answer a little bit awkward. How about "be a very low percentage of your credit limits, but not 0"?
As far as the game itself, players have multiple options to choose between levels. I don't recall the specifics, but I think the only option should be to click or tap into the next level. That would prevent the game from getting in the way of the learning process.
While I’ll agree the game is not very difficult I think it boils down to education. I’m 28 now, but 10 years ago maybe even 5 I probably would only have been able to answer half those questions correctly lol. Think this is great for credit noobs. A great starting point that allows them to see what they really know about managing credit 👍🏽
