Guide Review - Game Review of Puzzle Game ‘Cash Cow’ for iPhone and iPod Touch
Cash Cow is simple fun for virtually all ages. Out to help a fellow animal, the hero must match coins together to create U.S. dollars. Make enough dollars and you move on to the next level. Four quarters can be connected to make a dollar, but so can several dimes or, in a more moderate way, two nickels can be made into a dime, and so on. Don’t let the cartoon graphics fool you: It gets chaotic quick as the allotted time drops and menaces like blocking bugs and fake coins impede matches. The mundane farm decorating segment is best for kids, but Cash Cow could use more of the addictive bonus levels, which involve tilting the phone just right to collect coins. Overall, Cash Cow is a nice variant on the puzzle theme.
