Adding the left or right shift to the arrow keys tells you the coin to
your left or right respectively. Down arrowing tells you what is down the
stack. The object is to find 3 coins vertically or horizontally and
exploding them by dropping the coin you are given onto the correct stack.
You shorten the stacks, which start with 20 coins in each, with the chain
reaction of exploding coins. If a bomb is on a stack, and you have the
correct coin that matches it, all coins of that denomination in the stack
will explode. If you are on the bomb and it explodes, you lose 10 seconds
off the clock. It's a fast action puzzle game.
As for being coins rather than colored blocks, I prefer the coins, because
color means very little to me, because I've never seen them. I would have
a problem remembering green, red, blue, brown, or whatever. As it is now,
the higher the value of the coin, the higher your score, which makes more
sense to me. HTH.

i should probably try change reaction again, sinse I could never get into
the game when i first tried the demo, ---- though I admit that partly this
might be a country thing, sinse some of the coins were American ones which
were unfamiliar and which i'd not really heard of before.
I think for me it would've been better if the coins were abstract objects
like coloured blocks as in Tetris.
This wasn't however the major problem i had with the game, the major
problem was understanding what was precisely happening. i got that the
principle was similar to columns or tetris with piles of coins, but there
didn't seem to be a way to review the piles or plan strategically, you
just seemed to get a coin, and have to hammer left to right until you
heard a matching coin, then chuck and hope, which made it feel far more a
random arcade game than a stratogy one.
Imho Klango's old haunted factory game (which is now sadly utterly
unavailable), was a much better take on this type of puzzle in audio, or
more recently Quentin's magic blocks.
Beware the grue!
