Are mystery boxes (for 6 donuts) always interesting?

Since the beginning of the update there is written: "5% for a premium item", so 1 chance out of 20.

Before there was not written the chance percentage but it was more interesting I believe. If you have bought several mystery boxes since the beginning of the event do you win less Channel 6 Van and I&S Billboard ?

    Not sure if they've changed the pattern. Give it a shot and let me know. I wont be hitting mystery boxes until I can go up about another 100%

    There is no change.
  • There is a recent requirement for mobile games to tell you the odds in mystery box type purchases. This seems to be complying with that.
  • So I tried yesterday and it's always the same: with several boxes I had 1%/6 donuts approximately

    I was able to go up another 100% with 800 donuts about. Don't think there was any change.

    I just got another useless minnow pond, which i promptly sold for cash. I hate that mystery box. There's no mystery, it's full of garbage!
    All my designs look unfinished because i can't place as many plants, streetlights, and fences as i would like. PLEASE REMOVE THE LIMIT, EA!

    You are right, there is no mystery. There is a preset order that the prizes come in.
    I do not accept unsolicited friend requests! PM me and say hi first.
  • There are 6 or 7 items that rotate in a fairly regular manner, it goes something like this:

    -one donut prize (10 or 30 donuts, alternating)
    -two premium items (news van, I&S billboard and/or Lard Lad)
    -3 or 4 non-premium items (useless junk, but at least you can make a few thousand igc per round by reselling them)
    -repeat in this order from the top

    The guaranteed average return is about 7 to 8 donuts per 1% multiplier, which is the most efficient way to get multiplier except some rare special offers
