Pursewick key art
Pursewick is a money game for learning to handle euros at a village market stall. Four tasks take turns: count the coins on the counter and pick the total, pay a price exactly from your purse, give a customer the right change, and give change with the fewest coins and notes. Every euro coin from 1 cent to 2 euros and the 5, 10, 20 and 50 euro notes are drawn in code, in simple shapes rather than copies of the real designs. Twenty-four stalls with eight customers each grow from sums under a euro to fifty-euro notes; a mistake costs one of three hearts and quick answers earn stars. It plays in the browser with a keyboard, mouse or touch, in English or Bulgarian.
