Challenge the Game in its Truest Design with the New “Money Hungry Mode”

“Money Hungry Mode” is a new mode that seals away the Joystick Rattle technique and forces the player to challenge the game how the designers initially meant for it to be challenged. Compete against other players around the world in online leaderboards.
