Runelocked Chest

Cheap mobile games have taken over world quests. This wouldn’t be so bad if mounts weren’t locked behind them. I thought the turtle escort quests were the low point. The new content is very disappointing.

People complained about kill this many or collect this many type quests. Now we have these mini games. This is their solution to the complaints.

Their solution to forcing their player base to repeat uninspired quests 5,000 times in order to unlock a mount is to create quests that are so bad that they cause people to quit. Well played.

Seriously? You are having trouble with a bejeweled mini game? Heavens forbid you actually have a break from the “kill X for Y number of Z” quests.

I like the line uncrossing puzzle. I’m not so much a fan of the match three thing, I play those on my tablet. It is possible to win the match 3s in one move-wish I’d taken a vid of that moment. Would make a cool gif.

I haven’t seen this one yet. Is it a daily or something you find?

I don’t have bejeweled on my phone because I don’t enjoy it. It is not a difficult game, but it is certainly not a fun game. I am in a massive vacuum with water surrounding me and hostile serpent-men doing everything that they can in order to kill me, but bejeweled…

After figuring out how they worked (thankies /1 !) I’m enjoying them, even if they do take me a bit.

Personally, I prefer the simple mini-game world quests like the chests over the hundreds of “kill X” ones.

Better than killing 25 Naga

I like puzzle quests.

Different strokes.

because they have you playing your character and not a watered down version of bejeweled.

Mounts are locked behind doing these ?

I like these types of ‘thinking’ quests to be honest. Just killing things is really really boring.

Rep.

Purchasable mounts have rep requirements.

Daily/World Quests provide rep.

Sure, but I like them because they’re at least something different. While “Kill 10 Murlocs” has been a thing since Classic, “unlock a chest via a puzzle” is something relatively new for WoW, at least on a daily-quest scale.

I’m loving the untangling quests - you always know that you’re at the right place for them (or the matching X ones) by all the people standing around a chest…

And it’s definitely a change of pace as others above said from the gather this or kill that… so, what’s not to like?

Yes so - just skip these if you don’t like them. There really is no hurry to get those mounts.

Yep-yep

There’s a quest chain to unlock them.

You’re not an intellectual for lining up 3 shapes in a row. Toddlers do it just fine. This is a pathetic mobile app that has been adapted to wow, not a “thinking” quest.
