In Where Winds Meet there are some challenging boss fights, but in a completely different game mode, players struggle even more: the mini-games.
What are these mini-games? In Where Winds Meet, there are various mini-games that can be experienced solo or together with friends in co-op mode. In duels against the NPCs in the world, there are repeatedly situations where players have little chance.
Especially two of the mini-games are currently driving players crazy, yet there is a simple trick to winning each of them.
Still need help convincing your friends to play Where Winds Meet? Here are some ideas:
Musical performance is easier than it seems
What kind of mini-game is this? The first mini-game that continuously presents players with significant challenges is musical performance. Similar to the legendary Guitar Hero, players must press the correct keys on the keyboard in time.
However, since there are 6 different keys and sometimes simultaneous notes, few players manage to bring the necessary dexterity. Thus, Reddit user RaniNamari wonders if he is just too old for the game.
The community responds cheekily: Yes, but then explains to the player a trick on Reddit. Unlike Guitar Hero, there is no penalty for pressing a button that is not currently required. This means you can keep pressing all the buttons the entire time and easily perfect the game.
Only when there are notes that must be held, one must be careful and hold the button as intended. Otherwise, everything can simply be spammed.
Pitch-Pot Trouble
Why are players frustrated with this mini-game? Right at the beginning at the Generals Shrine, there is the opportunity to play against an NPC Pitch-Pot. The character must throw arrows into a vase while intoxicated.
As a player, this means keeping the mouse and sometimes a second keyboard cursor in a moving circle, to then click the mouse button at the right moment. However, unlike the intro at Generals Shrine, the mini-game later in the game is quite tricky.
Not only do the circles move much faster, but they are also smaller. Thus, Reddit user ZHelish states that the mini-game is harder than the Abyss bosses in the game. Yet, here too, the community has a tip.
Thus, user Contribution_Real explains on Reddit that the mini-game is significantly influenced by the Determination attribute. Leveling this attribute makes the mini-game easier and allows for easier wins.
The mini-games in Where Winds Meet are one of many sandbox activities that can occupy a lot of time. For those who prefer to be a bit more productive, side quests might be a better option.
