You’re given a single life (death means having to start over) and a strict time limit, and expected to dash through three random levels collecting coins as you go. The surprisingly compelling Coin Rush mode adds another layer to this fascination with gold. The collectable element really does alter your mindset as you play, and for the better. You’ll find yourself making risky jumps that you’d ordinarily ignore, just to secure a few more coins. While there’s little incentive to collect coins other than bragging rights, this constant reminder of your progress serves as a surprisingly effective tool in getting you to snag as much cash as possible. Coins are no longer solely treated as a way of bagging more points and additional lives (the latter of which have become increasingly irrelevant in recent Mario games due to their abundance), but instead to serve as a collectible commodity, driving you forward and instilling an almost suicidal urge to grab as many as possible during each level.Ī counter on the main map screen shows how many coins you’ve collected since you loaded the cartridge into your 3DS, and this steadily ramps up the more you play. 2 showcases a hitherto unseen obsession with gold - possibly the game’s single biggest innovation.
