New Feature: Kimmy's Arcade!

Xarly

Hi everyone!

Some of you might have already seen this new feature on the top left side of your screen. If you haven't yet, don't worry! If all goes as planned, it's only a matter of time until you can also enjoy it.

Without further ado, it's time to introduce Kimmy's New Arcade!

How can I access the event?

On the top left side of your map you will see that icon. Tap on it and you'll be introduced to Kimmy's Arcade!

How does it work?

If you need to find out more, just tap on the "i" icon to learn how to play.



As you can see above, it's simple! You have to use a ticket to play and with every level you will get a reward. You can always cash out the rewards you have won (as seen on the left image below) but if you lose a level you will lose all the rewards that you have collected so far. Think twice before a new level but, don't worry! If you do lose and wish to keep on playing, you can do so as seen below!

How do I play a level?

Once inside the arcade, you have to select one of the boosters below and the level will play itself! The goal? To spread the jam. Be smart and pick the right booster in order to pass the level, get the reward and head on to the next one (or cash in if you want to play it safe)!

How often can I play?

If you're already one of the lucky ones that have it, you can play as much as you want! There are free tickets available so check your game to make sure you make the most out of it. You can also play it anytime with spending a few gold bars!

Please let us know your feedback and thoughts below! And, as mentioned, if you don't have it, stay patient, we will keep improving the feature and getting your feedback and, as it improves, more and more of you will be able to enjoy it!

This sounds like an interesting addition! I look forward to testing it out.

Looks like a fun new feature. I hope it shows up for me Question: If we don't get Kimmy's Arcade before it goes live, then can we only play by paying? That would be a bummer.

Xarly

There is an option to get a free ticket every certain hours and collect free rewards from it. Once you spend your free ticket, you have two options, wait the time mentioned until a new one comes, or spend gold bars to buy new tickets.

Another element I wanted to mention is that Kimmy's Arcade is a solo feature, since I know some of the people in the Community were also requesting new elements that don't always aim for a social experience .

Cheers,
Xarly

Even if you have deposited it nicely here, I find it not fair to me. Just delete and do your own thing. Sad!!!

Wow sounds like fun @Xarly.  I'll keep my eyes open and hope it shows up in my game sometime soon. 😊🐨

FOR INFORMATION:

It's like a jackpot. Must decide for yourself when to stop and click on the package. It can also happen that you are unlucky in the first round.

I really like the new addition. It's true you have to decide when to stop, I won five in a row went for six and lost. It hurted a wee bit but learned not to be greedy. I really really enjoy the extra boosters. Thanks.

So that’s why the next 45 boards have a pinball theme to them, huh?  Are you really going to introduce 45 new boards next weekend just to end up 15 boards short of 4,000.  The real question is whether I’ll have 3 stars on the one remaining level I have left or not.  That level is 3640 and I believe it is calibrated too high.

That's great feedback! There's more to come as it's just coming out but knowing that you already enjoy the essence of it is really useful for us.

Cheers and keep the feedback coming!

It looks like fun, but I don't have it yet.  However I only play on mobile (IOS) devices .  Is it out on mobile devices yet @Xarly?

Yosca

Wow, I love this feature. I got it today. Finally a nice opportunity to get some boosters. I already received 4 colour bombs, 20 minutes colour ball, 20 minutes wrapped candy and 20 minutes soft ball yay 🎉. Would it be an option to be able to save time boosters? That would be even nicer. 

If you don’t have a free ticket you can buy with 5 goldbars and go again. I’m getting greedy lol.

Hey @bearwithme!

It is available for iOS indeed. Only a matter of time until you have it too .

That's great feedback! I'm collecting your initial thoughts already and sending them tomorrow to the team so I'm sure they'll be very happy to hear this (and I'll of course ask them as well about saving those boosters for later).

Cheers!

I have the icon for Kimmy’s arcade on my screen but when I click on it the screen freezes and I can’t play. I am playing on my iPad

I played it last night but had no clue how to do it.  Then on the 2nd level the game froze and I couldn't back out of it.  I was on my iPhone XR.  I had to shut it down completely and when I reopened it I cleared out the history. 

@bearwithme I also have IOS so you should get it soon.  I don't want to go back in yet because it froze badly on me.
