How to Play Dopamine Collector

Dopamine Collector is a free card-pack game. You open packs, flip the cards and build a collection of 81 animals, each in 11 finishes.

Free packs every day

You get 3 free packs a day. They refill at midnight in your own time zone. Pick any of the 4 sets (Wildwood, Deep Blue, Safari, Skyward) and tap its pack.

Opening a pack

1. Tear it open. Swipe across the dotted seam at the top of the pack.
2. Flip the cards. The 5 cards fan out with the weakest on the left and the best on the right. Tap them in any order.
3. Watch the glowing ones. A card that glows face-down is Rare or better. Tap it and it jumps forward while its glow climbs through the rarities: blue for Rare, purple for Epic, gold for Legendary and rainbow for Mythic.
4. Look for a second surprise. Sometimes a card shakes after it flips and turns into a special finish such as Shiny, Chrome or X-Ray.

Building your collection

The Collection tab shows every set. Cards you haven't found yet appear as silhouettes. Each card has 11 finishes, so the full master set is 891 collectibles.

Spares, fusing and polishing

Duplicates become spares. Fuse 3 spares of one rarity into a random card of a higher rarity, or polish 3 spares of one finish into the next finish up. The fusing and polishing guide has the details.
