How to Play
Your TDI Guide. Hello! I'm Marcy, one of several TDI Guides who will assist you through PlayInsure. My goal is to make sure you understand the insurance coverage you select in the game. I'll also explain what happens during each life scenario and the effects of your selected coverage. Always check with your insurance agent, because PlayInsure is meant to provide a fun way to cover the basics of insurance, not the exact coverage on your policy.
Texas Towns, Game Pieces, & Coverages. Before the game begins, you will choose your town, game pieces and insurance coverages. Choose wisely as your selections impact your insurance premium and longevity in the game. Find a balance between your annual premium cost and your monthly budget and then Play!
Object of Game. We will start you off with $8,000 in your Bank. Your Premium cost will be determined by your previous selections. Your goal is to make it through 30 Days without losing all your money. Each pull of the Play button puts you through a single life scenario, representing 1 day. Watch the Day Counter at the top of the screen to see how many days you have left to play. Choose your insurance coverage wisely or try to get away with as little coverage as possible. It's your choice. Good luck!
Playing the Game. Click on the Play button to mix up the life scenarios that you may land on. Click Stop to try your luck. Some scenarios are geared to help you learn more about insurance in general. Take time to review this information and add money to your Bank! You may not be so lucky with other scenarios, depending on your coverage choices.
Click For Help. These icons are geared to help you navigate through the PlayInsure.com game. The following explains how each icon can assist you during gameplay and scenarios. Dec Page - This is an example Dec or Declaration Page that outlines the insurance coverage you've selected. In real life, you will receive a Dec Page from your agent after receiving home or auto insurance. Help - This allows you to quickly review the different elements of PlayInsure.com. Restart - This button allows you to start the game over again.
Winning the Game. If you successfully make it all the way through the month and still have money in your Bank, you win! Losing the Game. If you run completely out of money in your Bank, you lose. You should always be prepared by making sure you have enough insurance coverage in times of crisis. Replaying the Game. We encourage you to PlayInsure.c multiple times, choosing different town, game pieces, and coverages to see what effects your choices have and how long you can last.
