# Collectibles and In-Game Currency

### Sardine Collection

The central goal of each level is to collect sardines, which serve both as a score multiplier and in-game currency. They are cleverly placed throughout levels, challenging players to perfect their timing and platforming skills to collect them all.

### The $SHIRO Token

Accumulated sardines translate into $SHIRO tokens, aligning player success with tangible rewards. The $SHIRO tokens can be used to purchase in-game items, unlock special features, or traded within the game’s ecosystem, bridging the gap between virtual achievement and real-world value.
