Hello, lovely Pachans! Things seem to be speeding up around here. There are now only two more devlogs until the 1.3 update drops! For those just joining us, weve been counting down devlogs instead of days, as wed like the press to cover us and help spread the word. So, we have to keep the update release date under wraps for a little while longer. Now, on to todays devlog! Be aware of spoilers for new end-game content and mini-games!

Dice

To play dice, youll want to chat with Cohh in the Mograni lands. You may have met him at a festival already. Once you play and beat him, youll get to play other clan members as well, with a total of 5 people you can play against. This game is based on Shut the Box, a game that dates back to at least the 12th century. In this game, you will roll dice and click the tiles that add up to the number you rolled. The goal is to get the highest score, which will earn you new dice skins. You can also earn new dice by befriending two Mograni.

Performing Music

In the 1.3 update, youll be able to play the music mini-game from the Fall Carnival Festival in the Yakuan Islands. Youll start with a few songs you can play and earn notes to spend on new songs. Perform more to collect the majority of the songs, with two more you can earn by befriending two Yakuans.

Bug Catching

Once youre invited to the new lands and complete the main story, youll gain access to bug catching. In this mini-game, youll play notes to herd bugs together and try to catch the largest group you can. Youll be able to use this new resource in a number of ways, to heal sick trees, as bait for traps in the Mograni lands, or for line fishing in the Yakuan islands.

Fishing

Who doesn't love to go fishing? Once you develop the idea for line fishing, youll gain access to fishing by raft on the mangrove island. In this mini-game, you will try to reel in the fish by controlling the tension on the line. When it starts to turn red, that means it is too tight, and your line might snap.

Ball

We mentioned this game in our last devlog, but it had to be included here as well! In this mini-game, you will play a simplified version of foosball against other characters at festivals! We hope youll have fun with these mini-games when version 1.3 drops. We certainly had fun creating them. As a reminder, we are hosting an AMA on our subreddit, r/RootsOfPacha, on April 25th at 10 AM PDT / 9 PM CEST! Youll be able to start asking questions a few days in advance if you cant participate when the AMA goes live. We hope you can make it! Keep looking to the stars, and well see you again soon in the next devlog! You rock! The Soda Den Team
