Coin Age

Control a map using pocket change in this two-player microgame. Players take turns shaking and slapping their remaining coins to determine available actions, then place, move, or remove coins to claim spaces and score points. Smaller coins can cover an opponent’s larger coins, creating a balance between high-value placements and the risk of losing them. The game combines area control, direct interaction, and push-your-luck decisions using a single map card and a handful of coins.

    Nice idea, lacking execution. PROS - The concept of a portable game that fits in your wallet is fantastic. - The art is nice. CONS - Way too many coins are needed to play, so it is not really a portable, play-when-you-want game.

    Cute game, but for me I'd rather play Eight Minute Empire in the same slot. Plus this being 2 player hurts my ability to get it to the table.
