I have a question, so for my loop

#

it works but if I insert a letter instead of number it crashes

#

if (game_duration >= 40 && game_duration <= 90 && game_duration % 10 == 0) {
break;
}
else {
cout << "\nERROR: Your input for duration of the game is NOT valid. Please enter again. \n";
}

#

is there a way to make it so if the user accidently inserts a letter it doesn't crash and start pasting like crazy?

you have to handle the input error

#

when you ask for a number and the user types in something that can't be a number, the stream goes into an error state and doesn't do any more IO until you .clear() the error

#

that's why it then loops forever without waiting for new input

#

you can do like:

if (cin >> price_per_min) {
    // input ok, do stuff with price_per_min
} else {
    // input failed :(
}
#

and use clear to reset the error so you can try again, and ignore to throw away the line of input, so you don't try reading the same bad input again
