MINT GATE / chamber 01

Step into the forbidden arcade bank.

Scarcity hums beneath marble. Desire flashes like chrome. A coin lands, splits the grid, and every price becomes a mythic creature with rules of its own.

Tap the pearl dots. Each bounce is a tiny market creature proving that lower prices invite more hands to the counter.

SALE? WANT!

chamber 03 / empty fountain

Money stretches; memory lags.

Drag the coin mirror. The symbol fattens and wobbles while the same basket asks for more numbers.

BREAD 2 → 5
MOON MILK 6 → 11
