Super Tiny Monkey: Sidequests




Quests give the gamers a purpose. We believe that by adding quests to our game, you, our player, will enjoy the game more. Quests will give you something to work on, something to aim for -- in case topping the leaderboard isn't enough.
To be able to see your Quest Log, simply tap the PAUSE/HELP button. The Pause window will appear and from there you just tap the Quest Menu button. It's the one that looks like a book.

The quests are optional missions any player can complete while playing the game. Each quest gives varying rewards, all in the form of EXP (Experience Points), Gold Bugs (Currency for use with power ups and upgrades), and Rainbow Butterflies (Special Currency). Completing quests is currently the only way to earn Rainbow Butterflies at the moment.

Quests have a Level requirement. At the start of the game, during level 1, there are only a handful of quests available to the player. As you gain more levels, you get to unlock more quests automatically. Your new quests will simply be added to the bottom of the Active quests list. You can view the currently locked quests, complete with their rewards. We think that by doing it this way it'll motivate the player to level up and keep on playing.

Likewise, completed quests are kept in a nice list for itself. From here you can review the quests you have completed. Quests are tied to the map you are in. Each map will have its own set of quests. Quests are not repeatable. Once completed, they will always stay completed.

Completed quests

During gameplay, when the player completes a quest, a notification will appear at the corner of the screen. This gives the player a hint that he/she has completed a quest. As more quests are completed the number indicator will simply increment. Pressing/Tapping this icon will bring up the Quest Log Menu.


Notification to your right
After a game session, you will be notified of each quest you have completed, and be awarded with EXP, Gold Bugs, and Rainbow Butterflies according the the description of your quest.

At the moment of this writing we already have 35 quests. We plan to add more, to reach 50 quests for each map.
