The Days of Memories festival in My Time at Sandrock is a returning favorite from My Time at Portia, but with a fresh new twist. Held on the 27th of Summer, this festival offers a mix of fun, competition, and valuable rewards through tokens. In this guide, we’ll break down how to earn tokens, strategies for the mini-game, and tips to make the most of this special event.
1. Festival Overview: When and Where
- Date: 27th of Summer
- Location: Central Sandrock, where the main festival activities take place
- Goal: Earn tokens to exchange for unique gear and decorations
Pro Tip: Prepare for the event by saving crafting materials for the special commissions leading up to the festival.
2. Earning Festival Tokens: Two Main Methods
There are two primary ways to earn tokens during the Days of Memories event:
A. Daily Commissions
- Availability: Start 7 days before the 27th of Summer.
- Reward: Each completed commission grants tokens.
- Difficulty: Easy to complete with a steady stream of tokens.
Tip: Complete all available commissions daily to maximize your token earnings before the main event.
B. Festival Mini-Game: Ghostbusters Mode
- When: Only playable on the 27th of Summer.
- Format: Split into four rounds with two distinct roles—Ghosts and Ghost Hunters.
Pro Tip: Focus on the mini-game to earn the highest number of tokens quickly.
3. Mini-Game Breakdown: How to Play and Win
The festival mini-game is inspired by Ghostbusters, where players alternate roles as Ghosts and Ghost Hunters.
Playing as a Ghost
- Objective: Collect as many tokens as possible during the preparation phase and hide effectively.
- How to Hide: Choose from three random disguises and find a blue flame-marked hiding spot.
- Rating System: Your hiding spot is rated from “Very Well” to “Very Badly,” influencing how hard it is for Ghost Hunters to find you.
Tip: Test all disguises in the preparation phase to find the best match for hiding spots.
Playing as a Ghost Hunter
- Objective: Find hidden ghosts using scanners.
- Preparation Phase: Play an arcade-style mini-game to earn more scanning attempts.
- Finding Ghosts: Look for objects that seem out of place or exhibit small movements.
Pro Tip: Memorize the initial layout of objects when playing as a ghost to spot discrepancies when hunting.
4. Scoring and Rewards: Maximize Your Gains
- Token Collection: Earn tokens by finding ghosts or remaining undetected as a ghost.
- High Scores: Achieving the top score on the leaderboard grants special rewards, including rare decorations and gear.
- Avoid Wasting Scans: Be strategic with your scans, as they are limited each round.
Tip: Ghost Hunters who find ghosts can keep the discovered tokens, boosting both their score and reward potential.
5. Best Practices and Strategies
- Plan Ahead: Complete the daily commissions leading up to the festival for a head start on tokens.
- Stay Observant: As a ghost, avoid high-traffic areas. As a hunter, focus on odd or misplaced items.
- Balance Risk and Reward: Don’t waste scanner uses on suspicious but unlikely targets.
Pro Tip: Prioritize winning the mini-game for the highest token earnings, but supplement with commissions to ensure you can buy all desired festival items.
6. Spending Your Tokens: Gear and Decorations
Once the festival concludes, trade your hard-earned tokens at the festival shop.
- Available Items: Unique gear, decorative items for your base, and special festival-themed clothing.
- Save Tokens: Some items are exclusive and may not return until the next festival cycle.
Tip: Focus on functional items first, like gear that boosts stats, before spending on purely decorative pieces.
Conclusion: Make the Most of Days of Memories
The Days of Memories festival offers a fun break from your regular builder duties while providing valuable rewards. By balancing commission work with success in the mini-game, you can maximize your tokens and get the best items available. With these strategies, you’ll be well-prepared to enjoy the festival and leave with a stash of new gear and decorations.
Happy festival, builder!
