What you’ll build
Add coins to one of your games, hiding them along the route, and build a prize shop with a hopper pay box. Playtest it, count coins earned, then adjust prices by a percentage until the economy feels just right.
Finish line: Your game has hidden coins, a working pay-box shop and a price list balanced by playtesting.
Bonus challenge: Add one rare golden coin worth 10, hidden somewhere sneaky. Does it break your balance or make the game more exciting?
You’ll need
- Gold nuggets

- Signs

Stuck?
