The Money Making Game is a mini-game from The Legend of Zelda.[1] When Link participates, he is shown three Rupees in front of him to pick one of them. Picking one of them results in either a lose of more Rupees or a gain of Rupees. There will always be one prize that gives Link Rupees, either +50 or +20, and two prizes that take away some of his Rupees. One will always be -10 Rupees, and the other has equal odds of being -10 or -40.
Six Money Making Games can be found throughout Hyrule, but one of them can only be played in the Second Quest, and requires the Flute to enter the game. The Money Making Game is operated by the Old Man.
