PackRat's newest arcade game is called the Foil Fairy’s Favor! This is a credit-only game. For the first time ever, you can now try your luck to see if you can get a card to foil that you've already purchased or made! Finally that super rare or super special card you have can also become foiled without even needing to unlock it from your Pack!
To start, click/tap the arcade button at the top of the screen, and then click/tap the box that says Foil Fairy's Favor:
You will see a brief explanation of the game. Match 3 Foil Fairy's, and your card foils; match 3 paint buckets, and you win a bling card; match 3 stars, and your card foils and you win a rare bling card. Rare bling is either (1) bling that's only available in the Las Vegas ticket market (not winnable as a draw card), (2) bling that's not currently in any market, or (3) brand new bling first released through this new mini-game!
Hit the continue button:
Next, click/tap "Start Here":
Select a card from your Pack you would like to foil.
NOTE 1: You can select a card that has bling on it; if it foils, the foil will overwrite the bling. However, blinging a card will (and always has) overwrite a card that has been foiled. Cards that have already been foiled cannot be selected.
NOTE 2: As with all other game actions, like making a card, trading a card, vaulting a card, or stealing a card, any cards that have a Pack Pet lock will *not* be selectable to play the game. You may unlock the card first if you wish to use it, but the idea behind Pack Pets has always been that once it's locked, it's untouchable and impossible to modify accidentally.
NOTE 3: As of release time, you will be able to select cards that have "special" XL foils, such as cards from the Birdwatching set. The game code actually treats these foils as blings, and so you can select them; but if they foil and you're an XL player, the card and foil will look the same as it did when you started. If you're a non-XL player, foiling a card with a special XL foil will cause it to have a regular banana foil; it will overwrite the special foil.
If the card is locked, it will remain locked. If it is unlocked, it will get a temporary timer added to it while playing the game so it can't be stolen while you're going for a foil!
If you wish to select a different card at any time, simply click on the card you're currently trying to foil, and you'll be shown cards in your Pack to choose.
After you've selected the card, hit "Spin 5000." 5,000 credits will be deducted from your account. When you first select a card, the first spin will be 5,000 credits. After the first spin, the cost to spin will decrease by 250 credits until it hits 1,500 credits. Once it hits 1,500 credits, all subsequent bets on that card will cost 1,500 credits. If you leave the game, or select another card, it will re-set that price to 5,000. This will be clearly communicated by animation in the game after each spin.:
If you spin 3 blue paint buckets, you win a bling card!
You can either view the bling card, or simply click/tap the continue button to continue playing the game:
If you click/tap the View button, you'll see what bling you won, as well as issue number:
Remember that a Bling card will count against your Pack space! If you do run out of Pack space, you will be shown a pop-up alerting you to this fact:
To gain more Pack space, either make a card, which will consume 3 ingredient cards; vault cards; use the bling; or buy XL (if you're a standard player). You can continue to apply different bling cards to the same card, and each one will overwrite the one before it.
If you do not make any more space in your Pack, you can continue to play the game for the chance for your card to Foil, but you will not win any more Bling cards, even after spinning 3 blue paint buckets. If this happens, you will be shown another message that lets you know you would have won bling, but your Pack is full. If you're not an XL player, the pop up will have a button to buy XL, which will immediately give you 30 more Pack spaces:
If you run out of credits to continue to play, you'll be shown a pop up telling you so. You can add more credits to your account by converting tickets to credits. To do so, click or tap on the + button next to your credit total at the top of the screen:
You'll be seen this screen:
Similarly, if you do not have enough tickets to convert to credits, you may buy more tickets by clicking/tapping on the + button next to your ticket total at the top of the screen.
Finally, if you're playing the game and want to read this detailed help center article, simply click/tap the "Ring 4 Help" button in the Foil Fairy's window:
Other important things to remember:
-There is no cap for how many cards you can foil in a given day
-There is no cap for how many bling cards you can win in a given day. There always has been, and still is, a cap for how many non-bling cards you can win in a given day. That limit hasn't changed, but we now show a pop up when you are approaching that limit.
We hope you have fun playing PackRat's latest arcade game! If you'd like to give us your feedback, please write into help@hookbang.com
