About Old Coin Pusher Friends 3
Old Coin Pusher Friends 3 is the third online co‑op coin‑pusher from STP WORKS, set in Japan’s Edo period. Players move around a Sugoroku board that follows the historic Tokaido Fifty‑Three Stations, triggering events such as yokai battles, official punishments, and volcanic eruptions. Up to four participants can join via random or friend matchmaking, cooperate in mini‑games, and upgrade their pieces with weapons and speed enhancements to collect Edo‑themed prizes.
01 / THE GUIDE
Edo‑Period Setting
The Sugoroku board is themed around the Tokaido Fifty‑Three Stations, giving each tile visual cues that reflect the Edo era.
When a player lands on specific squares, events such as volcanic eruptions or yokai encounters are triggered, linking the period’s geography to gameplay challenges.
- Observe tile artwork for clues about upcoming events.
- Note which squares consistently yield valuable Edo‑era items.

Multiplayer Matchmaking
Two multiplayer options exist: random matchmaking for one‑off encounters and friend matchmaking for playing with known partners.
Both options allow up to four players to join the same session simultaneously.
- Use friend matchmaking to coordinate upgrades before starting.
- Try random matches to experience varied player strategies.

Sugoroku Progression
Movement on the board is driven by collecting dice that appear on squares; each dice collected lets a player advance.
Reaching the Sugoroku’s goal awards additional Edo‑period prizes based on the total collected during the match.
- Focus on dice that appear frequently to keep movement steady.
- Plan routes that pass through squares known for high‑value prizes.

Co‑op Mini‑Games

The strength of each yokai scales with the combined strength of all players, and stronger yokai drop more prizes when defeated.
- Coordinate attack‑power upgrades before tackling yokai.
- Assign specific players to manage eruptions while others focus on yokai.
