The Three Minigames Overview
The Sunny Summer Fontinalia event features three main minigames that players can participate in to earn event currency and rewards:
1. 🎬 Film Director’s Masterpiece (Cinematic Puzzle Minigame)
In this minigame, players step into the shoes of a film director, directing scenes and adjusting camera angles to match a given storyboard. You must place actors, direct their movements, and choose the correct camera angles to achieve the desired cinematic score and complete each stage.
2. 🎯 Hydro Cannon Target Practice (Combat/Shooting Challenge)
A fun, fast-paced shooting minigame where players operate a specialized Hydro cannon to blast targets, balloons, and slime constructs floating across the water. Different target types grant different point values, and hitting bonus targets unlocks high-score multipliers.
3. ⛵ Fontinalia Water Race (Naval Navigation Minigame)
Take control of a high-speed Fontainian water vessel and race through challenging aquatic obstacle courses. Collect speed boosts, dodge water hazards, and pass through checkpoints as fast as possible to earn Gold, Silver, or Bronze medals depending on your completion time.
