Change Maker

The Good
I suppose the graphics are kind of cute, but there's not much to like here.

The Bad
There simply isn't enough to this game. It consists entirely of adding up coins to the requested totals. There is no need for dexterity, so there isn't an addictive arcade element to encourage kids to keep playing, and there are no restrictions on how many of each coin can be selected, so there is no puzzle element beyond the totally obvious. The difficulty level remains consistently easy, and it all becomes boring very fast, no matter what your age or experience with making change.

The Bottom Line
The flaws of this game would be much easier to forgive if not for the fact that Flippy's Circus Coins, a much more interesting game with exactly the same theme, was published years earlier on a prior issue of the same disk-magazine. This game is a step in the wrong direction and not worth spending much time on.
