As someone who has played many versions of online mahjong it seems to me that this is a good start but needs improvement. With traditional mahjong it's clear that certain tiles can be paired but with this version there's no real reason a person would know beforehand that a closeup of the plain face can be paired with the tile that depicts the full figure.

Considering that the file size is under 200Kb this is impressive. It could be fleshed out some and made longer- I'd be interested in seeing you do somethig similar with a clear story line.

Assuming that you're trying to approximate reality as closely as possible, you need to move the left arm to a lower layer so that his left hand doesn't pop out between the bottom hem of his shirt and the top of this pants when he walks toward the can.

It would be more fun if the snake travelled more slowly at first and then moved faster as the game continued.

And a refreshing change from the almost constant stream of shoot 'em up games that I see in the portal. Too bad it isn't feasible to make a 3d version.

It's always good to see games like this.
I like it, but have a few suggestions:
1. Give the user the option of turning off the music mid-game. After awhile the sound was distracting and not welcome but I couldn't find any button for muting the music in the game.
2. Make the coin questions progressively more challenging. After a few questions where X is the same for all the coins that add up to the given sum it would be nice to see questions that involve situations where, say, there are twice as many dimes as there are quarters. Naturally, the more challenging the question the more points a correct answer should be worth in the game.

Good animation, good choice of music (it would be nice to know the origin of the sound file, though). I look forward to see the continuation of this.

The same horse wins in any given race; for instance, white horse always wins race #5. It would be more interesting if the outcome of the different races was randomized. Since you suggest it as a betting game, it would also be nice if the interface had a way of actually placing bets.

Bad sound does detract from an otherwise nice flash. Put the following code on buttons that select incorrect answers:
on(release) {
stopAllSounds();
}
(as well as other commands you already have on the buttons)
