How it works
Mia is a traveler with a map of three pretend lands. Lumo uses gold star coins, Pell uses square teal tiles, and Vee uses paper notes called moons.
None of this money is real. It is all pretend, just for the story.
A shop takes the money of its own place. In Pell the baker only takes tiles, so Mia's star coins do not work there.
An exchange booth swaps one kind of money for another. The swap rule is on the sign, and it can be different in different places.
Worked examples
Swapping four star coins
- The sign says 2 star coins swap for 1 tile.
- Four star coins make two pairs: 2 + 2 = 4.
- Each pair swaps for 1 tile, so Mia gets 2 tiles.
Paying for the bun
- A bun costs 2 tiles.
- Mia swapped 4 star coins and got 2 tiles, then paid the baker 2 tiles.
- Her jar held 6 star coins, so 6 − 4 = 2 star coins are left.
Ten star coins
- Ten star coins make five pairs: 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10.
- Each pair swaps for 1 tile, so 10 star coins swap for 5 tiles.
Which money where?
- A gold star coin works in Lumo.
