Well, if you’re a youth or adult with children or younger relatives, you can hurry along and click on that little green text above that says “Let’s catch Insomnia”.

But don’t say I didn’t warn you. You’re in for a bumpy ride. I won’t think less of you for waving the white flag. In fact, I seriously can’t think any less of you. 

Word of advice – you must play as a team of 4 to 8 for a better chance to ‘defeat’ me. Though I honestly doubt you can match my vastly superior intellect – as you’ll soon discover.

Your very own nightmare will take place on a platform called Gather.town, which is an 8-bit metaverse game with web-conferencing features.

We will get to the details in your confirmation email. I’m the villain here, remember? Don’t expect me to play nice.

"As a teacher, I think CPF is going in the right direction. The game is innovative, informative and interactive. The students really enjoyed it and understood the key messages."

"I was pleasantly surprised by the puzzles and even a month on, can still remember them vividly. The lesson on looking out for guidance from others early on so that it would pay off later, was etched vividly in my mind. Similarly, I hope that students will take away valuable knowledge of CPF while young so that they can reap the rewards later."

"I thought the challenges would involve a lot of calculations and quizzes about CPF, but that was not the case. While the challenges did include facts about CPF and financial literacy concepts, they were mostly subtle and sprinkled in. With a mix of memory, logic and visualisation games, these facts were blended almost seamlessly into the game’s storyline."
