Three Games You Can Play Again and Again
Quests in the Wastelands are completed once in a lifetime — until today. Three buildings now host games that refresh by the clock and pay crowns every time you win. Each has a training mode — no waiting, no rewards, no risk — and a quest you can accept once every few hours.
■ MAGIC BALLS — Eschenholl, Mage Tower
A button next to the sliding puzzle. A nine-by-nine board, seven colours, three minutes. Five balls of one colour in a row vanish and give twenty points each; miss a line and three new balls drop onto the board. Everything you score above five hundred becomes crowns. Less — minus five. Available from level 1, refreshes every three hours. The quest allows one restart — a second one counts as a loss.
■ FORKLIFT — Ravenfort, Shop
A warehouse, crates and marks on the floor. The forklift only pushes — one crate at a time and never towards itself. Put every crate on a mark and earn twice the warehouse number in crowns, but never less than twenty. There are 188 warehouses; the quest picks one at random. The position is remembered: close the window and you come back to the same crate. From level 5, every two hours.
■ REVERSI — Eschenholl, Post Office
A tab next to “Write” — only inside the Post Office itself. You play blue and move first; enclose a row of red discs between two blue ones and it flips. Beating the “Master” is worth forty crowns, a loss costs fifteen. From level 5, every hour. In training you can pick a weaker opponent.
A won quest counts as a completed quest — for achievements and season pass tasks, just like the sliding puzzle. Full rules are in the Library, article “Repeatable quests”.
See you in the mist.
