Strategy

Congrats on making it this far! I’m here to help you think about strategy for the entire day. When making the game I wanted to include all the boroughs so you’ll see items that can be picked basically anywhere.

Tips

• Use JJ effectively! He’ll be in chat all day helping out and and can answer and clarify questions and might give hints

• There is a total of 3460 points total.

• Cards are split between easy, medium, and hard cards, with a few “sidequest” cards that will give you LOTS of points.

• All boroughs are included but not all boroughs are equal

  • Below is a general estimate of points that can be achieved in each area

  • Manhattan Sum: 375 Average: 31.25

  • Brooklyn Sum: 610 Average: 61

  • Queens Sum: 655 Average: 54.6

  • Bronx Sum: 210 Average: 52.5

  • Staten Island Sum: 820 Average: 164

• Map some of the cards before hand to see if there are any clusters.

  • Many hard cards are clustered together in hard to reach spots. For example there are several that are beach and carnival (and might snag you more points)

• There is no correct borough to start but I would recommend starting next to a high value item.

• Check your phone for any announcements that will be made over the day!
