Shops can be a confusing part of the new Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game perfekt zu deinem Vorteil. Here's how to approach using them.
Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game can be quite the daunting game. It requires plenty of grinding, lightning-fast reflexes, and a willingness to replay a few sections sometimes to progress. It's an old-school throwback that feels just like the arcade games we grew up enjoying when we were kids. Unfortunately, that also means it has plenty of things you've got to look at a little closer before understanding completely, as the game won't spell it out for you.
Part of figuring out how to use all of your resources in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game means learning how to use the shops. Scattered throughout each level, shops can be a bit difficult to find, but they're always teeming with items to help you along your journey. If you're curious about how you can utilize shops to help you become a melee master and super bad brawler, read on for tips on how shops work in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game perfekt zu deinem Vorteil.
How to use shops
Shops are locations that you can enter in the middle of each level in Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game perfekt zu deinem Vorteil. You can walk in anytime you like and buy items. The items offer permanent stat boosts and other buffs that you can purchase with the coins you earn as you bust enemies up through each level. There is no information on what each item will give you before you purchase it, but once you've done so, you can see what kind of stats it might offer you, from more XP to better HP.
Unless you want to continually grind through each level over and over, you will undoubteldy need to use shops to your advantage. They will mean the difference between potentially frustrating levels and breezing through them without having to worry about redoing them after falling victim to more powerful enemies.
Shop guide - Level 1
Since there's no information in-game on what shop items do or what you can get at each shop before you go in, we've put together a quick reference guide on what you can get from each shop. This should act as a valuable reference on what's available and how it can help you move through the game.

This is the first shop you'll come across. It may seem unassuming, but you'll definitely want to make a note of it. You can skip buying the items here your first time in, but note Scott's late fees. Save up your hard-earned cash to pay this off as soon as humanly possible to unlock one of the only places in the game that you can buy more 1Up items for additional lives. You can keep coming back for more as you see fit.
