I am considering buying the counterfeit machine in Jetpack Joyride, but I am curious how it interacts with the double coins spin prize. Does it:

  • A. Remove the possibility of winning the double coins prize.
  • B. Make the double coins prize have no effect.
  • C. Make the double coins prize worth quadruple coins.

?

The "Counterfeit Coin Machine" or, now called the "Coin Doubler" will duplicate all coins earned once you have entered the game over screen. Effectively, it:

  • Doubles all coins you have collected in-game,
  • Stacks with the "Double Coin Next Run" power-up (effectively making each coin worth 4 times despite only appearing as 2 times while playing)
  • Doubles all coins won through final spin (since those coins are added to your coin collection total)
  • Does not affect coins purchased through the "Get Coins" part of the store (those using real money).
  • Gemtology will apply bonus coins as per normal, effectively making gems worth 10 times, and normal coins 2 times the value (even though it appears as 5 times and 1 time respectively).

To simply sum it up, everything works as per normal (including the shop) except for in the "Game Over" screen where your coins are doubled. Since the shop doesn't end up in the "Game Over" screen, it doesn't get doubled.
