You’ll need an Entrance Ticket every time you head into the park to explore a level. Start with 4 Entrance Tickets. They regenerate over time, up to a maximum of 4. Earn more by completing quests, discovering city incidents, or purchasing with diamonds. Golden Tickets temporarily remove this requirement for 5 minutes — play as many levels as you can without using your Entrance Tickets!	Wildlife Coins give you more control during levels. Begin with 200 Wildlife Coins. Earn more through quests and incidents. Use Wildlife Coins to: Purchase additional moves (65 Coins = 5 Moves). Buy Boosters to break tricky block formations or push rewards into position.	New this year: Flutter Coins replace the Daily Special system. Earn Flutter Coins by dropping Reward Chests to the bottom of the board. Spend them in Safari Supplies, choosing the rewards you want most. The store refreshes daily, with discounts and unlockable slots that can dramatically improve value.

How to Play: pop Blocks for Rewards

Each level contains colourful Pop Blocks scattered across the board: pop two or more adjacent blocks of the same colour to clear them and keep in mind that larger groups give you better opportunities to create chests and earn better prizes!

Create Reward Chests

Match five or more blocks to create a Reward Chest. The bigger the match, the higher the star rating of the chest.

1 Star	2 Stars	3 Stars	4 Stars	5 Stars	6 Stars
5 matched blocks	6 matched blocks	8 matched blocks	11 matched blocks	15 matched blocks	20 (or more) matched blocks

Higher-star chests contain better rewards and more chance of winning Flutter Coins, so plan your pops!

Colours and Rewards

Each block colour produces a chest aligned with a specific reward type:

		With five or more matches of the Blue Acorn, you will create a blue Chest Piece which will contain a reward with Forge Points
		With five or more matches of the Green Leaf, you will create a Green Chest Piece which will contain a reward with Coins, Supplies, or Boost & Rush Items.
		With five or more matches of the Yellow Flower, you will create a Yellow Chest Piece which will contain a reward with Goods
		With five or more matches of the Orange Carrot, you will create an Orange Chest Piece which will contain a reward with Medals or Blueprints.
		With five or more matches of the Red Apple, you will create a Red Chest Piece which will contain a reward with Army Units

Dropping Rewards

Creating a chest (or a Pawprint) is only the first step. To claim the reward, you must drop it to the bottom of the board.

• Reward Chests: Hover over them to check their reward types and probabilities.
• Pawprints: Dropping Pawprints fills your Grand Prize Bar, advancing you toward major rewards.

Every move counts — guide rewards carefully so they reach the bottom before you run out of turns.

Boosters: Your Field Tools

Boosters help you break through difficult layouts, engineer large matches, and grab rewards that feel just out of reach. Purchase them during a level using Wildlife Coins:

	Hammer	Remove a single block of any colour.
	Leafy Line	Clear an entire horizontal line.
	Lightning	Remove all blocks of one chosen colour.

A well-timed booster can completely change the flow of the board, so use them wisely!

Moves and Deadlocks

Each level gives you a limited number of moves. To make the most of them:

• Target large clusters to create high-star chests.
• Decide when to focus on Pawprints versus immediate rewards.
• Keep future drops in mind — plan ahead just like navigating a winding river trail.

If you run out of moves:

• Buy 5 more moves for 65 Wildlife Coins.
• If you reach a deadlock (no matches), the board reshuffles automatically without costing you a ticket.

Ticket Multiplier

Want to speed up your play session?

You can choose to use 1x, 2x, or 3x Entrance Tickets when entering a level.

• Your rewards multiply accordingly.
• Boosters used during that run also scale based on your multiplier.

Great for players who want to progress faster or make the most of short play windows.

NEW: Safari Supplies

Instead of Daily Specials, your rewards now funnel into Safari Supplies, a dynamic Wildlife Item Store.

• Earn Flutter Coins by dropping Reward Chests.
• Spend them on your choice of items — buildings, fragments, boosters, or other rewards.
• The store refreshes daily for free, and your first manual refresh is also free.
• One slot unlocks only after meeting a special condition.
• Discounts rotate randomly across offers.
• The store remains open a few days after the event ends so you can use leftover Flutter Coins.

Returning daily is key — just like checking new wildlife activity at the trail cabin.

Relaxed Rivals

Rivals now follow a calmer pace, unlocking one quest per day for 19 days. Complete these tasks to earn additional resources and progress in your expedition.

Pro Tips for Success

• Think ahead: Set up chain reactions or position Pawprints where you can drop them easily.
• Check chest rewards: Hover to see which ones are worth targeting.
• Balance strategy: Some runs are best for chests, others for Pawprints — adapt as you go.
• Use boosters sparingly: Save them for moments when they’ll shift the whole board.
• Visit Safari Supplies daily: Discounts and refreshed stock can greatly improve value.

Start Your Adventure!

Venture into the wilderness, pop blocks, collect Flutter Coins, and uncover the treasures hidden beneath the canopy. With strategy, patience, and a little help from Diane, the Wildlife Event 2026 is filled with opportunities to explore, discover, and earn meaningful rewards.
