Question 1

Do I need to create an account?

Accepted Answer

No. Jump straight into any game or lesson. Your progress saves right in your browser, so you can pick up where you left off without ever signing up.

Question 2

Is it really free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — you can start playing and learning for free, no payment required. Snowball is an independent project built by Nicolas Aguirre to make financial literacy available to everyone.

Question 3

Who is Snowball for?

Accepted Answer

Anyone who wants to feel more confident about money — whether you're budgeting for the first time or brushing up on credit, taxes and investing.

Question 4

How long does it take?

Accepted Answer

A single game round or lesson takes just a few minutes. Come back for a few minutes a day and your streak — and your skills — keep building.

Question 5

Do I need any finance background?

Accepted Answer

None at all. Every concept is explained in plain language and taught through hands-on practice, so you learn by doing rather than memorizing.
