Reviews for Gold Rush (#24270)

Review by snekeel on 25 Nov 2014 (Rating: 2)

You shouldn't really expect too much from type-in games, that would be like asking an elephant to do cartwheels. This one is an interesting one, a mixture of collecting money and a maths lesson, in which you need to tally up the amount of money collected and enter the total to buy the gold. It's one game you cannot afford to blink in or take your eye off it for a second because if you do you'll miss the amount of money and then you'll just have to guess. Obviously as it's a type-in game the movement is quite tedious and it takes precise timing to get past the moving belts. Could have been worse I suppose.

1985 Your Spectrum (UK)

Fun platform game with math problems included. It's written in BASIC so don't expect much, still neatly written and addictive enough for a few rounds.

Maybe I'm being a bit generous but I personally enjoyed this game and I got into this more immediately compared to my brother snekeel. You need to have good counting skills, a good sense of attention and plenty of patience with this game. It's obviously primitive but I found it to be a pretty fun game regardless.
