Dice-A-Roo - is it worth it?

[logansrogue]

I was wondering if it is anymore, cause a year or two ago I could play it and it'd pay big dividends. These days I can't play five games without losing all of them. Maybe I had a remarkably lucky phase? Who knows.

So I wanted to get down to brass tacks and find out myself if Dice-A-Roo is really as bad as I was making it out to be. If other people could help me by trying this out, it'd be fabulous, cause then I can put all the info together and hopefully get some figures. Here's what I found out from today's session of DAR:

Each session = 50 games.
Number Pet Got Bored At = 41

Lost at Level 1 = 23
Lost at Level 2 = 10
Lost at Level 3 = 3
Lost at Level 4 = 3
Lost at Level 5 = 0
Jackpot = 1

Number of games where items were won = 4
Number of games where more than one item was won = 1 (3 items won)
Number of games lost on first roll = 4
Number of games where level up occurs on first red roll = 5 (Of those, 2 lead to winning items)
Number of games where level up occurs on first blue roll = 1

Neopoints spent in session = 205
Neopoints won:
items = 998
JP = 3000
Total = 3998

Total earnings: 3793

It's pretty fun to map these sort of things. It costs roughly 250 neopets (depending when your pet gets bored) and takes about half an hour to an hour.

I could never get the hang of that game. I usually did better on puzzle or action ones. Deckswabber - if you can play un-interrupted you can rack up major points.

It takes persistence and patience, and a lot of luck.

Well it took me about 35 tries before I won anything, but in this instance, it paid off. I'm going to do it a few times and record the results, just to see if they're consistent.
