La Cité Argentée Silver City is a Canadian game for children aged between 8 and 12 years in which we learn to save money.

Once the character is created, a goal set including:
Party at the zoo ($ 200 saving)
Pet dog ($ 300)
Air travel ($ 400)
Bowling party ($ 200)
Trip to the museum ($ 200)
Ski trip ($ 400)

The target, a budget of $ 40 is allocated to us. We finally arrive in Silver City. Then simply move the mouse cursor on the map and explore the city.

At each location we have the opportunity to spend (buying a rake, a skateboard, bike, clothes ...) or making money (mow the lawn, babysit, refuel the service station, sort library books ....) to achieve our original objective.
