Hello Kitty Island Adventure offers a treasure trove of activities as you explore the island and forge new friendships. With various quests and intriguing puzzle rooms, there’s always something to engage with. Additionally, you have the chance to join in on several fun mini games.
This guide will explore all six mini games found in Hello Kitty Island Adventure. While the games are generally easy to understand, we’ll provide tips on how to master each one.
How to Play Mini Games
To participate in mini games, you’ll need a Game Ticket. This ticket grants you entry to a mini game, and thankfully, they are relatively easy to obtain. Each day, three Game Tickets will appear in the Seaside Resort plaza, where you start your daily adventures.
You can also earn Game Tickets through weekly quests and special events. For instance, during the Luck and Lanterns Celebration, Game Tickets may be awarded as a daily prize.
Once you unlock Badtz-maru’s Gamer ability at friendship level nine, you can enjoy one free mini game attempt per day, as long as Badtz-maru is your companion.
Bogging for Apples
- Location: Spooky Swamp (south of the Fishing Well near the hedge maze entrance)
The first mini game, Bogging for Apples, involves chasing down white apples scattered around a maze. With 25 apples to collect in 60 seconds, the challenge is straightforward but can be complicated due to the maze layout. To efficiently collect all 25 apples, consider using a speed-boosting ability.
Using Pochacco’s Speed Walker ability lets you move faster, while Pompompurin’s Pudding Pants ability allows you to leap over obstacles, saving time on backtracking. You might also brew a Speedy Walking Potion through potion-making with Kuromi, which pairs well with Pudding Pants but doesn’t work with Pochacco’s speed boost.
Rewards
| Condition | Prize |
|---|---|
| Reward for Participating | 5x Apple |
| Reward for Collecting All Apples | 10x Mushrooms |
| Other Possible Gifts | Red Bow Apple Pie, 7 different music discs, Spooky Candles, Monster Beanie, Brain Hat, Franken Hat, The Incredible Hello Kitty #3 |
Seapony Racing
- Location: Rainbow Reef (to the right of the Recycling Plant, which is next to the Cozy Islands Mailbox)
Have you ever wanted to be a seapony racer? While this game isn’t quite a race, you can bet on seaponies and potentially win rewards. After spending a Game Ticket, you’ll select a seapony to back in a race.
The outcome is entirely random, meaning you can’t guarantee a win, but there are still appealing rewards to be had.
Rewards
| Condition | Prize |
|---|---|
| Reward for 3rd Place | 5x Box Clams |
| Reward for 2nd Place | 10x Seashell |
| Reward for 1st Place | Aquatic Gift, Froggy Power #7, various Nordic furniture, 6 different music discs |
Gem Match
- Location: Gemstone Mountain (the building with the gold roof, north of the Gemstone Town mailbox)
Gem Match is a matching game where timed interactions reveal gem colors. You get two turns per Game Ticket, activating two gem nodes at a time. Finding a match earns you another turn, allowing for potentially endless gameplay as long as you keep matching gems.
Remember what gems you’ve revealed; if you match a gem’s color, you can reactivate previous ones.
Rewards
| Condition | Prize |
|---|---|
| Reward for a Match (upon matching) | 2x Iron, 2x Shiny |
| Reward for Matching All Gems | Popcorn Machine, various Nordic furniture, 1x Ingot, 4 different music discs |
Rockadoodler Roundup
- Location: Gemstone Mountain (north of the Gemstone Corral mailbox)
To play Rockadoodler Roundup, complete the quest from Pekkle after reaching friendship level eight. The game requires you to catch Rockadoodlers using a net within 60 seconds, and it can be challenging since they can evade capture.
Companions can significantly help here—Pochacco’s speed boost or Keroppi’s ability to calm the Rockadoodlers make capturing easier.
Rewards
| Condition | Prize |
|---|---|
| Catch 6 or fewer Rockadoodlers | 3x Egg |
| Catch 7 to 14 Rockadoodlers | 5x Egg |
| Catch all Rockadoodlers | 7x Eggs |
| Other Rewards | Egg, Rockadoodler Nest Hat, Danger Doodler #1-5, 3 different music discs |
Red Hot Rampage
- Location: Mount Hothead (north of the Pizza Oven in an indoor area)
In Red Hot Rampage, navigate a platform-style area to collect 14 Magma Blooms in 180 seconds. This game is quite difficult, especially without companions. Utilizing companions like Pompompurin for higher jumps or Kuromi for balloon boosts can help a lot.
Before diving in, you can employ a Thermal Potion to enhance your balloon’s flying height.
Rewards
| Condition | Prize |
|---|---|
| Grab less than 3 Magma Blooms | 1x Obsidian Shard |
| Grab 4 to 7 Magma Blooms | 5x Obsidian Shard |
| Grab 8 to 11 Magma Blooms | 10x Obsidian Shard |
| Grab All Magma Blooms | Cinnamon Bread, Pineapple Lava Soda, various Nordic furniture, 6 different music discs |
Crane Craze
- Location: Merry Meadows (just north of the Merry Meadows Temple mailbox)
Crane Craze is a large crane game found in Merry Meadows. Before playing, you’ll need to complete the Petal Puzzle quest to unlock access. You’ll control a crane to grab floating boxes on lilypads, choosing between Easy or Hard modes for varied rewards.
Timing is crucial; practice anticipating the movement of the boxes to increase your chances of grabbing them.
Rewards
In Crane Craze, rewards differ from other mini games. If you miss a crate, you’ll receive three Pollen Puffs, while successful catches yield items specific to what’s inside each box.
This adventure in Hello Kitty Island Adventure not only provides fun and competition but also promises plenty of rewards as you explore, play, and connect with your favorite characters!
