Pirates Treasure Room

Have you seen the beautiful new Pirates Treasure Room? It's not just there for good looks, there are 3 new chests inside that require keys to open. How do you get the keys you may be asking? Well, by playing either modes of the Pirates of the Caribbean Game. Winning on Level 1 earns a Bronze Key, Level 2 earns a Silver Key and Level 3 earns you a Gold Key. After you've won a key take it to the Treasure Room and use it to open the matching chest. You might find the chest empty, but you might also find it filled with credits, a cool item or even magic! (Just between you and me mate, I've heard a rumor that Coral Magic may be found in the Gold Chest - but you'll have to plunder it yourself to see.) Make sure you win all 3 keys because each chest has a different treasure inside!

It was never promised each key would open a chest containing a new item. Actually it states you could find the chest empty.

Awesome. It's almost like gambling!

Cat.....

Be glad you won ANYTHING from that chest. I had three keys today
and won NOTHING.

Keep in mind that at least you won something.

 

[Peacefully]

better than nothing. Not much better, but still better.

 

[pixiewytch]

Yep, I was a tad disappointed with the throne I won as well since I already have several. Oh well, I knew it could be anything really. At least they are still giving us credits for playing the game. I think it's best not to play pirates based upon winning those keys, but for credits. That way if you get a key and then actually get something good it's just a nice bonus.

 

[Maleficent2]

Sorry you were disappointed with your prize...you also received credits and still a great prize in my eyes.


Good luck with your next key maybe it will be something you will like better.

 

[milkabum]

Sorry that you were unsatisfied, but it's better than nothing.
Best wishes to you!

(Happy Halloween!)

The only pirate throne left in Ned's is the Red one! Black and Blue are gone. I just checked because I too just won a black throne.

[FilamentTheBright]

OMG it's the end of the world. The sky is falling. We're all about to be abliterated.

See now winning doesn't sound so bad now does it.

 

[jmdude]

its been an hour and i have not won a game yet i am a loser

 

[dancergirlsasha]

Oh no. Looks like the keys are going to be like the codes from POTC2. One in 5000... God I hope not

How many times do you have to win to get a key?

 

[TToryk]

How many times do you have to win to get a key?

Every 10 times you win on one level (10 Level 1's, 10 Level 2's, or 10 Level 3's; they can't be mixed and matched) you get a "______ Key Magic" that is one use. Activate them in the Pirate Treasure Room to possibly get something.

Note that I say "possibly"...

 

[Mnementh]

You have to win a multiple of 10 times, but it counts wins that you had before the month started, too.

For example, if you've won on level 2 56 times, you would need to win 4 more times to get a key, since the fourth win would be your 60th.

 

[Grumpy_Disney_Dad]

there is an exception to the 10 wins rule or maybe its a bug. I got my tenth level 1 win today and it did NOt give me a key, but it allow me to now play level 2 games
