Shiny Goals

The Shiny Goals modifier adds a special visual effect to randomly selected goals on the board, giving them a glowing border and background.

How it works

Random goals are marked as “shiny” with a visual effect. What shiny goals mean in gameplay is entirely up to you.

Note

Some objectives can be set as permanently shiny by the goal set creator. The shiny modifier adds additional shiny goals on top of any that are already shiny.

Auto behaviour

If left on auto, the number of shiny goals depends on the board geometry:

Grid and Pyramid boards (Bingo / Ascend / Summit)

The number of shiny goals is the square root of the total board size (rounded down).

For example: a 5×5 board (25 cells) gets 5 shiny goals. An 8×8 board (64 cells) gets 8.

Rush

In auto mode, every set of 3 goals contains exactly 1 randomly selected shiny goal.

Custom amount

You can manually set the number of shiny goals from 1 to 15. Goals are randomly selected across the entire board.

Note

In Rush mode, custom amounts are not available. Rush always uses its set-of-3 distribution.

User interpretation

Shiny goals can mean anything you decide:

• Bonus points or achievements
• Special completion requirements
• Alternative win conditions
• Personal challenges or restrictions
• Any custom rule you want to apply
