The Shop is a location in Blinx: The Time Sweeper and Blinx 2: Masters of Time and Space where you can buy items and equipment. Additionally in the MOTAS shops, you can recruit new team members and play challenges to earn shop tokens.

The Shop in Blinx: The Time Sweeper

There is a shop in each round (excluding round 9) and is exclusively operated by Catherine. You can buy sweepers, items and clothing.

Items like RETRY holders and Time holders are limited to one per shop. Once purchased, they're "sold out". With no inventory, sweepers and clothing are replaced by the most recent purchase.

Items can be bought in bulk at a discount. For example, the unit price for a Retry is 200G but purchasing 5 Retries at a time is discounted to 750 G. Thus, the formula is discount rate = (unit price x 0.3) x (number of purchases - 1).

  • Buy: Buy weapons, ammo, power-ups and items.
  • Sell: Sell back your inventory items.
  • Talk to Jimmy/Carlos: Take on challenges for tokens, complete Rank-up Exams, get medals and recruit new members.​
