The Balloon Game

The Balloon Game (BART‑Y)

Now you're going to see 30 balloons, one after another on the screen. For each balloon, you will use the mouse to click on the box that will pump up the balloon. The bigger you pump up the balloon, the more points you will build up. But if a balloon pops, then you lose the points built up on that balloon. If you stop pumping a balloon up before it pops and you click on the box labeled “Save Points”, your points will be saved into the prize meter on the left. The bigger you make the balloon before you press “Save Points”, the more you will fill your prize meter. At the end of the game, the size of your prize will equal the amount of points you have saved into your prize meter, which will determine if you get a small, medium, large, or bonus prize. GOOD LUCK!
