About Moon Market
Moon Market is a shop game about money. Alien shoppers come to your stall on the Moon to buy cheese, lollies, cupcakes and more, but they're new to Moon coins and need your help. Tap coins from the alien's purse to make the price, then tap Done.
Later days bring two or three things to add up, buy 2 get 1 free deals and shoppers who pay with a big coin, so you tap coins from your till to give the right change. Quick shoppers who are served right first time leave a tip, and the coins you earn buy a rainbow roof, fairy lights, a shop cat, a robot helper and more for your stall. Rush Hour asks how many shoppers you can serve in a minute.

Levels and difficulty
There are 12 days. Day 1 has one thing at a time costing up to 5, paid with 1 and 2 coins. Then come 5 coins, two things to add up, bigger prices with 10 coins, change from 10, change from 20, three things at once, buy 2 get 1 free deals and change from 50. Early days show the sum to work out, like 10 − 7 = ?, and after two tries the next coin to use glows. Get every shopper right first time for 3 stars.
Tips for parents and teachers
- Use real coins at home to make the same amounts.
- Ask your child to say the sum out loud before tapping the coins.
- Try Rush Hour once the days feel easy, for quick mental maths.
