218 - Early Hustle: The Game That Teaches Kids How Life Works

Early Hustle is a life simulation game designed to help kids turn screen time into real-world learning through play, budgeting, decision-making, customer care, entrepreneurship, and everyday responsibility.

Creator Chris R. Mehan talks about building a fun-first game inspired by the classic paper route energy of Paperboy, where kids move through morning hustle, school and social loops, and evening choices that reflect real life.

The project is being built with community input through Kickstarter, giving families, gamers, and backers a chance to help shape a game that teaches life skills while still being fun to play.
