Centenspel is an initiative by De Kracht van je Stem to educate Belgium’s next generation about government spending and finances through the splendour of games. We conceptualised, designed and built (with the help of our developer friends at Studio Hyperdrive) the educational game Centenspel. Players assume the role of the minister of finance and are tasked with selecting their key policies, creating a budget and making one tough decision after another in order to keep Belgium’s employment, environment and economy in balance.

The underlying calculations of the game were created by the research group Policy Management at Hasselt University.
