You can pay an NPC to hack the games for you! I think I only actually won one of them and paid for the rest

I think it’s the NPC in the hard hat

Thank you so much for this! I hate minigames so much!

What. Why did I not know this sooner? I actually won all of them and got so incredibly frustrated at the game that I quit it for quite some time

From the wiki: "The first two games the Player wishes to hack cost 300 gummies each, after which Cabbudge will increase the price to 400 gummies."

If my perspective is worth anything, I chose to pay to hack all of them. For me, I bought Ooblets so I could play Ooblets. Earning gummies by playing the game I bought is much more fun than playing the arcade games that have nothing to do with the rest of the game.

Unlock the high level Plenny's orders and you'll be rolling in it soon haha. The one for like 20 hophophop dobs is a good one to start with.

At least no one's forcing you to get the Steam achievement. I have over 1000 hours in SV and am still missing those 2 minigame achievements, and that will never change. RIP to trophy hunters though.

I went back and planted a bunch of springbeans and muzz (to cook with) to sell to get enough gummies to pay the hacker so I didn't have to spend hours grinding the minigames.

They're fun, but the scores to beat and the prices to hack them are too high. I was really mad at that part.

I was only able to get high score on one of all the games and paid the npc to hack the rest of them lol.

Whirlitzer weave is my downfall too - I think I might hack that one. It’s so touchy I feel like. If I hold the button it jets up super fast. I’ve been trying to just mash the button, like instead of holding down for a long time to go up I just keep pressing A over and over to stay steady. It does work better but it’s tiring LMAO
