Streaks and Cases

Streaks and Cases are core mechanics in Pictographs that reward players for consistent quest completion with streak progression. By building a streak and earning cases, players can unlock valuable rewards, including $PICTO tokens, boosters, upgrades, and more, enhancing their gameplay experience.

Streaks A streak is achieved by selecting streak progression as the reward for Photo Quests (as described in the Photo Quests section) and successfully completing daily quests (with no rejected photos). The streak length increases with each quest completed while streak progression is selected. The longer the streak and the higher the camera’s Streak Power characteristic (as described in the Cameras section), the higher the level of the case received. If a player fails to complete a quest, has a photo rejected, or switches their reward to $PICTO tokens, the streak is interrupted, and a case is awarded based on the current streak length and Streak Power. Throughout the streak, players can track its length, but the exact case level remains unknown until the streak ends or is interrupted.

Cases Cases are loot boxes that come in 11 levels, with higher levels offering greater rewards. All cases guarantee $PICTO tokens, with a chance to also contain memory cards or screwdrivers (as described in the Screwdrivers section). Higher-level cases may also include boosters and upgrades.

Case Opening Mechanics

• Cost and Timer: Opening a case requires $PICTO tokens. Each case has an opening timer—higher-level cases have longer timers, while lower-level cases have shorter. Players can open a case immediately at a higher cost or wait until the timer expires to minimize the cost.

• Case Slots: Players start with 3 case slots but can purchase 1 additional slot through a subscription, allowing them to hold and open more cases simultaneously.

Streaks and Cases encourage consistent engagement, rewarding players with valuable loot that enhances their cameras and overall progression in Pictographs.
