Balloon risk
Pump for more virtual money or collect before the balloon pops
What it looks at
How you weigh a bigger payout against the chance of losing it, and whether you adjust as you learn how each kind of balloon behaves, with no right number of pumps.
How to play
You'll see 39 balloons, one at a time. Each pump adds 5p to that balloon's pot, and you can collect the pot whenever you like.
Every balloon has a hidden pop point. If it pops, that balloon's pot is lost, but money you've already banked is safe.
Balloons come in three looks, and each look behaves differently. There's no time limit, and all money is virtual.
