Dunk-A-Phantom is a single-player mini-game that can be found in the Summer Carnival. It was first introduced during July 2014.
Gameplay[]
In this game, the player uses a slingshot to launch balls towards a target in order to dunk a Phantom into a tank of water. Hitting near the center of the target will cause it to break and dunk the phantom immediately, but hitting the target anywhere else will make a dent and require a second hit to dunk the phantom. The player has approximately 45 seconds to dunk as many Phantoms as they can before the timer runs out and the game ends.
Rewards[]
This game rewards approximately 10 Tickets for every 30 points acquired. Dunking a Phantom provides 25 points, and if the targets are hit consecutively without missing, 10 bonus points are added for each additional Phantom that is dunked. Once the player has dunked 7 phantoms, dunking a Phantom provides 50 points, with bonus points applied like before. Occasionally, a golden Phantom will appear to provide a double-point multiplier when it is dunked.
Trivia[]
- Like most games at the Summer Carnival, this game costs 5 Gems to play it each time and it does not have any Achievements associated with it.
- This game can be difficult because of depth perception.
- If the player launches a ball towards the Phantom, it will attempt to dodge it.
- It is possible to hit the Phantom with a ball if the ball is launched while the Phantom is dodging a previous ball, but this won't reward any points.
- The phantom will laugh if the player misses the target completely.
- On the player's very first shot, a path is shown to indicate where the ball will hit when it is launched.
