Overview

The Money Making Game from The Legend of Zelda

Within the first dungeon of The Legend of Zelda, Link is told by an Old Man that the "EASTMOST PENINSULA IS THE SECRET". By traveling to the eastmost peninsula on the map, Link finds an explorable tree, home to another Old Man. This Old Man will challenge Link to the "Money Making Game" in which Link must walk over one of the three Rupees lined up on the floor. The game is set up in a way so that Link may either lose the amount shown, or win Rupees. Upon entering the tree, all Rupees are designated a "-10", meaning that the first move Link makes in the game will cost him 10 Rupees. After the first move however, the Rupee values move further into the negatives (i.e. -40, -20, etc) or rise into positive range (i.e. +20, +40, etc). The game can be played without end.
