Battle your bills. Master your money.
Tilly’s Quest is a pixel-art RPG where budgeting skills become turn-based battles and fast minigames. Combat rewards the same habits that help in real life: planning ahead, building savings, and spending carefully.
Join Tilly on a quest to free the Paycheck Kingdom from bills, debts, and late fees. Plan your paycheck, raise your Safe Cash shield, and outsmart the collectors standing between Tilly and the final showdown.
HOW YOU PLAY
