Play for Life: Sun Life marks Financial Independence Month with announcement of new game and more activities

“Financial freedom starts with a choice. This is why we are set to launch Play for Life: A Game of Choices. We want to equip Filipinos with the knowledge to make informed decisions on their financial journey. By making financial literacy more engaging and accessible, we hope to empower individuals to take control of their future and make life choices with confidence.” ~Carla Gonzalez-Chong, Chief Client Experience and Marketing Officer of Sun Life Philippines


What if you could give your financial journey a test drive? That is exactly what you can do with Sun Life's upcoming game, Play for Life: A Game of Choices, which will be released in June 2024. Sun Life is launching engaging activities this Financial Independence Month to promote financial literacy among Filipinos using gamification elements.









Embark on Your Financial Journey with Play for Life
Play for Life is a free single-player online game that simulates real-world financial decisions. The goal of the game is to achieve your desired life goals by making strategic financial and life decisions while navigating the ups and downs.

At the start of the game, players define their life goals and choose a character that represents a career. The gameplay revolves around rolling dice and guiding pieces across the board to squares that correspond to the dice outcome. The board features spaces that offer life-enhancing opportunities ('Life Wins'), present challenges ('Life Happens'), or require critical financial decisions ('Life Choices'), allowing players to use their accumulated funds strategically. 

ou win the game when you've accumulated enough play money to meet your life goal. The journey entails dealing with both positive and negative situations, reflecting the essence of life's financial planning and decision-making.
