You may only be five years old, but inShin-Chan: Shiro And The Coal Town, you’ve got a lot to do. You’ve got people to talk to, missions to complete, places to explore, and the childhood classic of catching bugs. There are all sorts to catch, from beetles to butterflies, and they aren’t just for show either.
You’ll need several to complete sub-missions or achievements, and any one of them might be requested for a trade offer on the bulletin boards. You’ll want to keep several of each in your inventory in case you need them for something, but you’ll have to do a bit of exploring to find them all.
