Mega Coin Squad (Xbox One) Review
Video game characters seem to be either constantly in need of some cash or suffer with severe OCD. It’s the only way to explain why they are so often obsessed with collecting coins, rings and treasure when they are supposed to be recusing princesses or saving the world. Big Pixel Studios have taken a different approach with their game Mega Coin Squad by making the entire focus of the game the collection of coins to deposit in a piggy bank. Surprisingly, the game holds up incredibly well despite this very simple premise. The game essentially revolves around travelling through an assortment of levels, avoiding enemies and collecting coins. However, some interesting gameplay mechanics make Mega Coin Squad a far more in-depth game than you might think. It follows the time honored tradition of being easy to pick up and play but fiendishly difficult to master. The single player experience introduces you to the five main characters and then chucks you into one of the four worlds to start your adventure.
