Cash Cow trotting out onto iPhone
Making moo-ney
Cash Cow is already a popular farmyard friend to a lot of PC gamers, and Riverman Media has teamed up with iPhone stalwart Chillingo to deliver the cow-based cash counting conundrum compendium to Apple's handheld.
Counting in American money isn't immediately obvious, but the premise looks simple enough for non-US gamers to pick up pretty quickly. Cash Cow involves a Bejeweled-style game in which you add up coins instead of matching gems.
Counterfeit money, ladybugs, gold nuggets, glowing coins, and power-ups are added to the mix as you attempt to tally up in a hurry, and a new accelerometer-driven bonus game has been built into the iPhone adaptation for a bit of extra value. As your bovine pal gets richer, you can then upgrade his farm.
The wacky barnyard story promises to keep you entertained, which is just as well given that we're also told the combo system will take weeks to master.
Check out the trailer below, and let us know what you think.
