COINS BATTLE

EDIT: I didn't fully realize that this game was made by Hede until a few months ago, and then I constantly forgot and remembered. Now, I cared enough to expand my review with the fact that this already overpriced game has become lusicrously overpriced, only to feed into the "Wow, what a bargain" psychology (I assume). That being said, this game wasn't worth 81 cents, or 8,19€, and it sure as hell isn't worth 97,50€. That's Hede's sense of humour for you. From my backburner of stupid purchases (basically the dark side of my wishlist), I present "COINS BATTLE". it's being sold for 8,19€, but I got it on a -90% discount for 81 cents, neither of which being an acceptable price for this. The entire gameplay consists of picking coins to battle other coins. I don't really understand how it works, but to me it feels like a coin flip (pun somewhat intended) whether you win or not. I do believe that there must be some non-transitive property like Rock-Paper-Scissors, but I think I'm giving the dev too much credit and it really is pure randomness. Either way, a bunch of things seem deterministic (like the coins you fight based on which ones you picked), but without a guide or tutorial, how …

Through unbelivable luck, this crown jewel of the gaming industry came into my Steam library. People that are after achievements will love this game. Just opening it will already give you 1/3 of all possible achiements. The immense joy I had during playing this game was passed on to my friends, who were merely listening to me playing. The complex structure of this game enthralled me for over 20 min (22min to be exact) until I finished the game and I was filled with bliss, which will last at least one lifetime. It is very difficult to comprehend the unfathomable greatness of this master piece. But here is what I, a mere mortal bystander in this, the greatest of all times due to this magnum opus, have understood: - You start with a coin that has 50/50. From my scientific observations I've followed that these numbers represent "attack"/"defense". - After selecting three coins (if you only chose so many as two, you are one short. Yet if you might have reached a number of coins wich is equivalent to four, you have overstept the god given number of three. So you shall count to three and not to two except if you will continue counting to three. But stop there and do not continue to co…

COINS BATTLE developed and published by Hede is a minimalist strategy game built around an unusual concept: collecting coins and sending them into battle against other coins in order to expand your collection. Rather than presenting a traditional story-driven adventure or a complex tactical system, the game focuses on a straightforward gameplay loop centered on gathering units, choosing which ones to risk in combat, and gradually improving your collection through victory. The result is a lightweight and experimental strategy experience that emphasizes simple mechanics and quick gameplay sessions. The core idea behind the game is surprisingly simple but effective as a casual concept. Players begin with a small group of basic coins that serve as the foundation of their collection. These coins function as the primary combat units, each possessing its own attributes such as power, durability, and rarity. Some coins are stronger or more valuable than others, which makes the decision of which coins to bring into battle an important strategic choice. The objective is to defeat other coins encountered in the game world and claim them as rewards, slowly expanding the player’s collection an…

I give it a qualified thumbs up. If you can snag this game for 1€ or less, it's worth playing just for the concept. I wouldn't recommend paying more than that, though. There's no tutorial or explanation of the rules, so while I *kind of* get it, the lack of guidance makes it a bit confusing. It's interesting for a while, but it has its limits.

i like it but others might not its all luck basse but learning about the histori of coins is super fun 5.4/10
