so pins are just loot boxes?

I don’t get the point of pins. instead of just getting boosters directly, you now get pins… and to get a booster out of pins you need like 9 pins. Yet you still just get some basic booster like 30 min timed???

I don’t get it… there are better rewards like UFO and party booster but the odds of getting them is probably really low. Not to mention that king might remove UFOS and party boosters in a update because they always do that…

Also it will take some time to get 9 pins just so you can get 1 booster, when before the game would have just gave you a booster directly. Even some of the rewards in the daily treat machine was replaced by these pin lootboxes.

Can someone explain this to me? or is it really as bad as it looks.

Welcome! 👋

Im thinking the same thing. Don't think that's a good idea the game would not be fair

Hi @Oichi yes I knew it was an old post but your post seemed the best one to add my survey info to as most other posts seem to be about the feature vanishing or how hard it is to collect all of the Pins.

Also surprisingly, it seems like quite a bit of people actually enjoy pins.

Yes it does seem that way, but I just ignore the whole feature as much as I can as the accompanying animations just really annoy me.

If they make it so you have to get pins through trading that sounds like it would be pretty annoying

I gathered from the question that it wouldn't be every Pin just a selection, but I agree with you that having to spend time trading would be annoying.

but no other player can get that pin? What does that mean?

I can't say for sure as the question didn't offer any further explanation.

@Alienscar This is a old post but no other player can get that pin? What does that mean?

Also surprisingly, it seems like quite a bit of people actually enjoy pins. but i think they added more booster rewards alongside the pins since i posted this so you usually still get something.

If they make it so you have to get pins through trading that sounds like it would be pretty annoying. I already see people say they just wanna do things solo.

Hi @Oichi I think you hit the nail on the head with your comment about King making this feature less rewarding.

I have just received a survey about Pins and one question asked what did I think of the introduction of a trading feature. One aspect of this trading feature would be that once one player had selecting a Pin no other player can get that Pin.

Obviously I answered I didn't want to see this in my game.
