## What is maruLab World?

Marulab World is a finance simulation RPG where you practice investing with in-game cash, not real money.

Investing feels scary because a wrong call costs real money. Here, you're free to get it wrong. Buy and sell Korean stocks, US stocks, and crypto with virtual cash, and get a feel for how markets actually move.

■ PAPER TRADING AT REAL MARKET PRICES
• Prices for Korean stocks, US stocks, and crypto follow the real market
• Place market and limit orders, and modify or cancel pending ones, just like on a real trading app
• Look back at charts and your trade history to see whether your calls were right
• After you sell, a results screen shows your realized P&L and the EXP you earned
• When a limit sell order fills, you'll get a note in your in-game Inbox
• Every trade uses in-game cash only

■ LEARN FINANCE WITH QUIZZES AND NEWS
• Follow the story in Duru's Study, take quizzes, and review explanations and every question you missed
• Build your knowledge one bite-sized article at a time
• Catch the day's top market headlines, all in one place

■ GROW YOUR CHARACTER
• Start out Jobless, then get promoted to Part-timer, Intern, Office Worker, Freelancer, Investor, and finally CEO
• Higher jobs pay a bigger Daily Wage and more Idle Earnings, which pile up while you're away
• The promotion screen sums up your new job, your level, and what you've just unlocked
• As you level up, you branch out from crypto into Korean and US stocks and unlock margin trading
• You can also hold more stocks and coins at once and place more buy orders per day
• Chart indicators unlock one by one as you get promoted

■ MAKE THE PLACE YOURS
• Move up through five homes, from a cozy studio all the way to a penthouse
• Buy and arrange furniture, hang framed pictures on the walls, and even move your windows
• Keep your place clean, comfy, and secure, or trouble like roaches and mold starts popping up
• The view outside your window changes with the day's market mood and the real time of day where you are

■ SOMETHING TO DO EVERY DAY
• Check in, clear daily and weekly missions, and collect your Daily Wage and Idle Earnings
• Take a quick break with mini-games like Drink Maker, Receipt Sorting, and Stock Sorting, and earn some in-game cash on the side

■ PLAY WITH OTHERS
• Post to the community feed, visit other players' rooms, and leave guestbook messages
• Talk in world chat or send whispers (private messages)
• Compete on the weekly leaderboard for the best return, and see how your return last week stacks up against the KOSPI, Korea's main stock market index
• Community and chat are shared with players in Korea, so you'll see posts and activity updates in Korean

■ PERFECT FOR YOU IF
• You want to start investing but aren't ready to put real money in
• You want to learn financial terms from the basics, step by step
• You want studying to feel like a game, so it's easy to stick with
• You love decorating rooms and leveling up characters

■ PLEASE NOTE
• Marulab World is for education and entertainment only. All assets and trades in the game are simulated. Trades never use real money, and no real orders are ever placed.
• In-game cash, Maru Gems, and the stocks and crypto you hold in the game cannot be exchanged for real money or prizes, and cannot be transferred out of the app.
• "Deposit" and "Withdraw" in the app only move in-game cash between your Cash balance and your Investment Account.
• Marulab World does not provide investment advice. "Random Stock Draw" shows one popular stock at random, just for fun. It is not a recommendation to buy.
• Market price data is provided for learning only and should not be used as the basis for real trades.
• Some items, including Maru Gems, Packages that include in-game cash, and the Monthly Pass, are sold as in-app purchases.
