Minigames

Minigames are the things to do in MapleVerse besides hunting: fishing spots, arcade cabinets, two-player board games and a few pure diversions. Most cost Vesos to play and a few pay out. They are entertainment, not an income: the machines that move Vesos are tuned to take a little more than they give back.

Fishing and the Fishing King

At the Floating Market (Thailand; see World Tour) you can cast a line off the pier.

Talk to Kedrick the fisherman at the west pier to buy bait and start fishing. Regular or premium bait; premium pays 1.5 times as much.
Each cast (about a minute) uses one bait and reels in Vesos, EXP, or one of 22 named fish, each with a size in centimetres.
Your biggest fish puts you on the Fishing King leaderboard. Talk to Kob, the Fishing King attendant, to see the board and the reward list.

i

Fishing is a Vesos sink: the bait costs more than the catch pays back, and a fish sells to a shop for 1 Veso. Fish for fun, the rare prizes and the leaderboard.

Pachinko

A Japanese pachinko cabinet: a board of pegs, a start gate and a spinning 3x3 reel. Fire balls (100 Vesos each); a ball that finds the start gate spins the reels, and matching symbols pay out in more balls. A power knob controls how often your balls reach the gate, so there is real skill to it.

Where: the Game Arcade Signboard beside the Free Market portal at the Floating Market, or the arcade parlour reached through Ludibrium, where Naoko trades your balls for a Gachapon Ticket.
You can fire up to 2,000 balls in any 24 hours. Left-over balls cash back out for less than you paid.

The ball-drop arcade

Next to the pachinko machine, on the same Game Arcade Signboard, is a ball-drop game: drop a ball for 1,000 Vesos and it bounces through six rows of pins into one of seven slots. The two rare edge slots pay 8,000 Vesos, the next pair 2,000, then 500, and the centre pays nothing. Up to 100 drops in any 24 hours. Odds and the average return are on Game Arcade.

★

Different from the original game The ball-drop arcade and Minesweeper are MapleVerse additions.

Omok and Match Cards

Two-player board games played in a private room. Omok is five-in-a-row; Match Cards is a memory-pairs game. Open a room with an Omok Set or a Set of Match Cards from your Set-up tab; another player joins, both ready up and the owner starts. Wins and losses go on your record. How to get a set and the room rules: Mini-Games.

Rock-Paper-Scissors

The Rock, Paper, Scissor Admin stands in Henesys (far west side of town). Pay 1,000 Vesos a game, pick your hand before the 30-second timer runs out, and keep a winning streak going, up to ten in a row. Cash out your streak as a certificate for Martin's exchange. You need a free Etc slot to hold the certificate.

Martin's certificate exchange

Martin stands in Orbis. Pick which certificate to hand in; he takes the number shown and gives you one prize drawn at random from that row. Keep a free slot in every non-equip tab before you trade. The riding coupons teach a mount skill for 30 days, whatever length the coupon names: double-click the coupon, then use the skill from the Beginner tab of your skill window.

Minesweeper

Talk to Mark, who stands in ten major towns (Henesys, Ellinia, Perion, Kerning City, Lith Harbor, Orbis, El Nath, Ludibrium, Leafre and Mu Lung), and pick Play Minesweeper. It is Minesweeper on a 6 x 6 grid with three bombs, drawn with item icons. Clear every safe cell to win 3,000 Vesos. You can win three times in any 24 hours.
