the cost of life

I came across this game called the cost of life. you are given a haitian family to take care of: 2 parents, 3 kids all uneducated with limited funds and a small farm. The goal mo is to help them overcome their very third world beginnings - get them to school, work, volunteer with unicef. Nakakaloka kasi ang mga trabahong nakukuha nila ay pamatay katawan dahil nga wala silang napag-aralan. It took me a long time before I got the right strategy.

What is it like to live in poverty, struggling every day to stay healthy, keep out of debt, and get educated?
