How to Earn Credits...relatively quickly...

[GBShorts]

Okay, after having read through a few posts (specifically Malificent2's thread about the princess costume) and seeing people talk about avoiding gas cans in Jungle Cruise to get their 20 points, I thought I'd share with you the way I get my credits in Jungle Cruise, Each set of 20 credits takes roughly 1:15 minutes.

As soon as you hop in the boat, go BACKWARDS until you're under the bridge and the dock cuts back on the side you hopped in from, then take a turn hard left, and you will be stuck. Can't go forward. Hold down the "left arrow" in that position and you will eat your gas, 5-7 "gallons" at a time.

I hope this helps, and I hope it's not already posted somewhere or a "duh!!" sort of post. I did this on both Saturday and Sunday of the Celebration weekend. I had 128 credits when I started and got the space suit, tiara, mickey hat, and a few other items that weren't specials. That's over 3000 credits! (which, coincidentally is what, over 150 plays at 20 credits each?). Those 150 plays, spread out over time, amounted in those two days to probably 3 hours or so. Yes, boring, but it does the trick in a pinch.

Anybody else have ways they go to earn cash fast? Obviously the NPC's.

Has anybody had luck (as I have heard from a few) that you can get NPC's in the first hour and again in the last?

Good luck

Thanks very much. I did not know this one.

One consequence of playing the pirate game is I got pretty good at it. I find a game rarely lasts more than a few minutes on level 3 and you get 15 point pretty fast that way. I noticed many people who are good tend to jump on with me and I earn most my points that way now.

Dont forget to click the 5 places too. You can do it twice a day if you do it in the morning and again at night. (Thats a quick 200 points per day)

I haven't timed it precisely, but it ALWAYS works if I log in at least 12 hours apart, say 10:15 am and 10:30 pm. It is a real easy way to get an extra 100 credits, if I can only remember to.

I am working hard to earn my fireworks pin. I am now scoring around 220,000 to 230,000 per game. When I can manage to come in first, I am awarded 150 credits for coming in first and an additional 50 for scoring over 200,000. The game takes longer to play, but for 190 credits it is worth it.

Plus, hopefully one of these times I will score over 240,000 and someone will beat me.

For anyone that may be discouraged by scoring that high, dont give up. I used to barely score 180,000 until I started playing often.

Yeah, I'm getting better at fireworks too, from playing so much. Getting closer to that pin. This game gives me the most points, especially since I can't seem to get on the jungle cruise top ten list anymore (that gave 100 points for doing so). I just wish fireworks didn't take so long! lol

I have tried the 12 hour apart thing precisiouly. When I click everything at 8:05 AM its avaliable to click again at 8:05PM that same day. Then the next day it still isnt avaliabel again until 8:05 Am again (I found out by trying)
I even experimented with trying one minute early and it wont work until exactly 12 hours.

What was cool the 50th weekend I got double points so 400 those two days alone. Now I get 100 in the morning and 100 in the evening.

Hey everybody thanks so much for the 12 hour tip! I've never had the patience to figure it out. Whee!

Can you trade photos? I've never noticed that it was possible.

Nope, I just checked.

 

[PrincessaC]

wow I didn't know you could get your 100 credits twice!! Thanks everyone!

 

[Adventuredaz]

I had not figured it out down to the time but I thought it seems to me it was related to the fact they update the game daily and it was just a glitch that after the update it doesn't remember every detail. That was my theory.

 

[GBShorts]

Oh I thought of something else, you can get credits more than once an hour in the Music Game too.

Pathetic little nothing it is, 10 credits.

I believe the timer is set at about 40 minutes, but I wouldn't swear by it.

 

[dark-phantom]

I dun get this tip

 

[Buzzfanmom]

This is terrible, but I do the jungle cruise and as soon as it starts, I do some chores until its over. Isn't that aweful? By the time I get back, I have 20 credits!

Not terrible. I've done this myself!

The easiest way to get more credits is to create a new character. You can use two of those 500 point codes right away! Of course I don't want to do that everyday, but when you need 2000 points for a new space suit, you do it! But once you have more than one character, you can get points from them every days from the NPCs. One can play Jungle Cruise while the other is doing something else.
For the music game, the quickest way is to go into advanced mode to go to an empty Music Game room so you don't have to wait in line.

 

[Buzzfanmom]

I love that advanced mode tip bopper!
Thats so sneaky!
