Buy the World With Burnside's Billions
In this incredibly engaging game, students are bequeathed $10 billion on one condition: they must use their fortune to purchase 27 of the world’s most iconic landmarks—in each landmark’s local currency! Using real-time currency conversion data, students negotiate deals by converting U.S. dollars into the currencies of 18 different countries. Students can save their progress along the way, but they’ll need a solid understanding of conversion math to make smart deals. Make too many costly mistakes, and they may run out of money before purchasing all 27 landmarks and fulfilling the terms of their inheritance!
Burnside's Billions
Description: This innovative game requires students to "purchase" as many of the world's most important landmarks as possible with ten billion dollars. Students must purchase by using the game's tools to convert dollars to the native currency. For example, to buy the Eiffel tower, players must convert dollars to euros. The game provides real-time currency exchange rates and has numerous twists and turns. Games can be saved! For more detailed video instructions, check out the Burnside Billion's instructional video.
