SUPER

THE LONG GAME

A retro arcade game that teaches young Australians how superannuation works — from your first payslip to retirement.

What is Super Smashdown?

Super Smashdown is a free, browser-based educational game designed for Australian Year 7–9 students. Through five arcade-style acts, players experience the full lifecycle of superannuation — making the abstract tangible and the important entertaining.

Every act builds your super balance…

1

Work & Pay

Catch payslips and check your employer is paying super. Miss one and it's money lost forever.

2

Extra Contributions

Dodge temptations and protect your savings. Every coin saved now is worth thousands later.

3

Market Shocks

Ride out crashes and collect recovery surges. Panic selling is the enemy — staying invested pays off.

4

Fee Factory

Intercept admin fees, investment fees, and suspicious charges before they drain your vault.

…and it all pays off here.

ACT 5

The Retirement Vault

Your accumulated super converts into Retirement Power. Kick open doors to unlock the life you want — holidays, health, a comfortable home, helping family, and more. The better you played Acts 1–4, the more doors you can open.
