Release 1.11.2 brings a long-requested option for making your new Phobies competitive more quickly:
Additions
Average Collection Level
- Players will now see the average level of their Phobies collection in the top-left corner of the Collection screen, as well as the Upgrade screen.
- This information has been added to facilitate the new Phobies Acceleration feature.
Phobies Acceleration
- This feature is intended to help players who have acquired exciting new Phobies cards to bring them in-line with their overall collection more rapidly.
- Phobies Acceleration allows players to “accelerate” a card to the average level of their total Phobies collection, using Coffee to supplement upgrade cards and/or XP.
- Here’s how the feature works:
- Acceleration is unlocked for players who have reached Stress Level 20 or higher.
- Acceleration becomes available for a Phobie when:
- A player has exhausted the upgrade cards available to upgrade the Phobie through normal means, and;
- The Phobie is below the average level of the player’s collection.
- Acceleration works through the standard card upgrade flow.
- When available, Acceleration allows a player to spend Coffee to compensate for lacking upgrade cards and XP, bringing the Phobie card to the average level of the player’s total collection.
- Multiple factors influence the Coffee cost for this action, including (but not limited to) the delta between the Phobie’s existing level and the average collection level, and the card’s rarity.
We know that players have been asking for a method of boosting their new monsters for some time, and we’d love to hear your feedback on this update. This feature is not intended as a replacement for the normal level up flow, but we did want to provide players with more agency in bringing new members of their Phobies teams up to a similar power level to their old favorites.
Fixes:
Reminder Pop-Ups
- Fixed a time-related issue that was preventing special offer reminder pop-ups from appearing to players after some time had passed and the initial presentation was shown.
Stability
- Assorted fixes have been added to improve game stability on multiple platforms.
This is our final planned update for 2024, so we wanted to take this opportunity to thank our players for their support over the past year. The Phobies team would like to wish our community a very safe and happy holiday season.
Happy battling,
The Phobies Team
