Coin Push Frenzy

Posted by Aaron On 11:29 PM


You may have seen or played a coin push game before at a place like Chuck E. Cheese or Dave & Busters.  If not, the premise of the game is simple:  insert coins into a machine with a moving shelf and have your coins push other ones off the ledge.  I'm not proud to admit that I have been addicted to this game for the past week, and for reasons I'm not even sure of.



Push boxes and special coins off the
ledge for bonuses


Simple Yet Addictive

Coin Push Frenzy is not an overly complicated concept.  Drop coins into the play area and have the moving shelf push your coin into the others, causing them to fall off the ledge in front of you.  If the coins fall off the side ledge they don't count.  You can unlock special coins that will help you out, for example an anti-gravity coin that will levitate coins toward you or a bomb coin that will shake up the board.  The main draw of the game are the collectibles.  You are given 1 board to play on in the beginning and 2 additional boards which can be unlocked through collectibles.  There are also collectibles which are just for show as well as achievements through the Plus+ network.  Getting all of these collectibles isn't particularly easy since you must drop a green box off your ledge and there is a possibility that box may contain an item you already possess.  You will accumulate additional coins every 30 seconds while playing or every 3 minutes while the game is shut down.  You can also purchase coins in the game which you can use to play with or unlock new game boards, however this completely defeats the point of the game.  If you want to get the most out of this game, do not purchase any coins.

Get Ready To Be Frustrated

Coin Push Frenzy is not without its problems.  When you drop a coin, many times it will not bounce.  The physics of the coins is completely unrealistic, many times behaving like the coins are made of styrofoam and other times like they are made of lead.  Some times it seems like the coins are coated in oil, sliding across the top of other coins right into the gutter.  Another major frustration which happens all too often is when a bonus coin or box is dropped, it will bounce and slide right off the side ledge.  But part of this frustration is what keeps you coming back for more because as frustrated as you get trying to find the collectibles that you don't have yet, finally getting that last item to complete your set is equally satisfying.

  • Easy to pick up and play a quick game

  • Coins don't move like real coins do
