The "Capture the Critter" games are automated games run during GM events that have the same general set of rules and results. A variety of both critters and return locations for each game have been found, appropriately tailored by a GM to each different event.

Rules

  • When you see a critter, try to GET it when both hands are empty. You might miss, you might grab just a scrap of junk, you might get stunned, or you will actually catch it.
  • Each critter attempts to escape your grip approximately every 10 seconds, so run fast once you catch it.
  • When in the room with the return location, PUT <CRITTER> on <RETURN ITEM> and claim your randomized prize.
  • In addition to various prizes unique to each variation, these games may also reward gems from the legacy gem list.

Game Variations

Below are variations of the game as documented here on Elanthipedia. Many of these links also reference prize lists.
