Games FAQ
Why isn't there very many games?
[url=http://Zetapets.com/]Zeta[/url] is not very focused on earning ZP through games. There will most likely never be very many more games.
How often can I play Random ZP?
Every 2 hours.
How do I play Sealed?
Sealed is a prettyful version of Codebreaker. The object of the game is to guess the colors and order of a combination selected by the game. You have 12 guesses. The quicker you guess, the more ZP you receive. It may seem a bit confusing when you first play. All you have to do is pick a color (at the bottom, pink purple yellow silver blue) and put it on the petals of the first flower (It's illuminated, in the top left corner) and hit Open.
If you want a little help, you can pres the Hint button. The Hint button will tell you one color belongs, but deducts 100 points from your score.
How do I play Plushie Emporium?
Plushie Emporium may seem confusing, but it's actually pretty easy. The only buttons you need to use are the space bar and the up and down arrow keys. The object of the game is to get 2 plushies of the same kind side by side. When you do, they disappear, and you get 5 points added to your score. Using the space bar (and the arrow keys to move up and down), you can switch lines of plushies that are not moving, so that the ones that ARE moving line up with matching plushies.
Pawprints don't come very often, and aren't that helpful. If you get a right-facing one, you can stick plushies after it that don't match, and then if you get a left facing pawprint you can put it at the end and they'll disappear.
How do I play Cloud Buster?
This game is a souped up version of Breakout. The object of the game is to make as many clouds as you can disappear, and each cloud is worth 30 points. To start, press the space button. It is a bit disorienting to use both up and down paddles as well as a bottom paddle, but the only way to get good at it is to practice.
If you are just trying to earn ZP, and not going for a high score, just get to 1000+ points, because the maximum ZP you can get is 1000, even if you scored more (you can send your score after you complete the first level).
