Editing Ball Pit

{{Community and activities sidebar}}
The '''Ball Pit''' is an hourly prize draw. You put Balls in the Pit for {{GameValue|minigames.ballpit.bcPerBall}} BC each. Once an hour the Pit is cleared, one Ball is drawn at random, and its owner wins the whole prize. More Balls means better odds, but never a guarantee.

It unlocks at the {{GameValue|minigames.ballpit.unlockRequirement}} rank.

== Prize ==

The prize starts at {{GameValue|minigames.ballpit.ballpitBasePrize}} BC and grows by {{GameValue|minigames.ballpit.bcPerBall}} BC for every Ball placed inside.

== Ball colours and limits ==

The Pit rotates through types, shown by the colour of the Balls on sale. Each type limits how many Balls one player can buy, so every player has a fair shot at the prize. Types with lower limits come up more often, and types with higher limits are rarer.

Read the live timer, price and limit on the page rather than relying on an older schedule.

== Main and Ironman pools ==

[[Profile Modes|Main and Ironman]] profiles each play their own Pit. Your Balls only compete against profiles of your own type, and each pool draws and pays out separately. The value never crosses between the two.

== Mystical Balls ==

'''Mystical Balls''' are a rare [[Items|item]]. For Main and Ironman profiles, using one enters you into the current Pit with five times the usual per-player Ball limit. It cannot be used if you already own Balls in the active Pit.

[[Profile Modes#Hardcore|Hardcore]] profiles have no shared Pit. A Mystical Ball works differently for them: using one rolls a Ball colour at once and pays BC straight away, with no other players and no waiting.

* Rarer colours pay far more, and even a weak roll on a rare colour pays well. Common colours can pay less than the item is worth.
* You can use Mystical Balls back to back for as long as you have them.

== Connections ==

* [[Profile Modes]]: decides which pool you join, or whether you use Mystical Balls solo.
* [[Rare Items]]: Mystical Balls drop as rare items.
* [[Player Logs]]: wins are recorded there.

== History ==

Earlier global prize drawings were called the Lottery. Players bought tickets for a chance to win a shared prize, with more tickets giving a greater chance of winning. The Lottery was introduced in [[Game Update (01-07-2021)]].

In game update [[v5.9.7]] on July 18, 2021, the prize became a randomly chosen amount of [[Old Crown|Ancient Treasure]] rather than a pool that grew with ticket purchases. The Lottery became unavailable in game update [[v6.3.0]] on October 30, 2022.

The Ball Pit later brought back global prize drawings with Balls in place of tickets and BC as the prize. [[Game Update (01-12-2025) – Update 2]] introduced Ball colours with different limits on how many Balls each player could buy.
