Random Saturday Ep 62: Tiki Trouble

Hey everyone! This is Clover with a new edition of Random Saturdays! This week, we are focusing on the adventure Tiki Trouble on AJPC.

This is one of Animal Jam's seasonal adventures, which means that it only comes out once every year. Tiki Trouble is a Summer adventure, first coming out on July 20, 2017. It most recently came back out on August 13. The adventure can be played by all jammers, however certain prizes are only available as a member.

Whenever you click on the adventure, you will likely be put with a few random jammers, or maybe even nobody, however, if you go to an empty server with your buddies, you can play with them! This adventure is best played with a group of other jammers, since whenever I played alone, I wasn't able to finish.

Once you enter the adventure, Tavie will explain that you need to earn 3 pearls from the Tiki Statues in order to complete the adventure. There is also a 17 minute time limit to complete the adventure, so you have to be quick to complete it.

Whenever you find one of the Tiki Statues located on the island, you will have to complete a set of tasks. For this, I used the "Koa Tiki Statue" as a tutorial on what to do.

Once I clicked the statue, I got a popup that said that I had to find jewels in order for the statue to speak to me.

Most of the time, you only end up mining fossils, however, there is a chance that you will mine blue crystals, which are the jewels that the statue is looking for. Once you complete this task, you will be asked to collect 3 different pieces of fruit for the statue before receiving the pearl.

When you receive the pearl, it will appear as an item next to your animal (shown below) and you must bring it back to Tavie in order to receive your prize.

Once you bring the pearl to Tavie, you will receive 2 treasure chests that contain the prizes. Unfortunately, I'm a nonmember, so I could only collect one of the prizes.

Whenever you receive all 3 of the pearls, you will receive your final prize. The nonmember prize is simply one of the tiki statues, however members receive random clothing items, and have a chance of receiving a Rare Spiked Collar or Wristband.

There are also other things you can do in the adventure besides collect pearls! For example, there are different Trader NPCS (animals not played by any jammer) on the island that you can talk to. They will explain that they love to collect different items, and if you bring them one, you will receive some gems.

Once you bring them an item they want, you will receive 25 gems. The items they want are the common drops from doing any action that has an item the Tikis want as a rare drop.

There are also different treasure chests located around the island, which usually contain a random number of gems, though they can also contain Octopus Archways. Some chests can be found rarely when mining, fishing or digging in the shallow water. These chests can drop Gold Bricks, Diamond Encrusted Gauntlets, or Giant Sea Shells respectively.

Finally, there is a passageway that can only be opened by Arctic Wolves. I'm unable to open it, since I don't have an Arctic Wolf. However, if the passageway is opened, you can enter a cave that has a few of the crystals that you use to mine inside it, as well as a treasure chest. If you open it, the treasure chest will either give you a Palm Tree, a Mangrove Tree, or a Pineapple Plant.

Another thing worth noting is that flying animals (eagles, owls, etc.) are able to fly above cliffs and deep water, while land animals have to walk around them, making it easier for flying animals to collect certain items!

That concludes this Random Saturday post! Stay safe on Animal Jam, and have fun playing this adventure!
