Porko is a game playable in the [[Big-Time Generator]] adventure, and at [[The Porko Palace]] in [[Elvish Paradise]].


Basic discoveries:
When playing Porko, you are presented with a [[Wikipedia:Pachinko|Pachinko]]-like game board featuring nine slots on the top row from which you can drop a token, a grid of pegs which will send the token left or right as it falls, and nine slots on the bottom row into which the tokens can fall.


*Across multiple adventures of it, the circular peg pushes the disk right, the plus peg pushes left, and the x is random. The name of the peg differs, probably to make it more difficult to bot, but the images seem to have the same effect each game.  
During the [[Big-Time Generator]] adventure, you must get the token into a specific slot to complete the quest. This appears to be guaranteeable on a single try every time.


*There's some randomness, though. At least on the first peg, I've had it go the way I didn't expect. Perhaps some random chance of it reacting differently? --[[User:Valliant|Valliant]] 07:17, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
When playing at [[The Porko Palace]], each slot will be labeled with a value from 0 to 3, indicating how many {{plural|lunar isotope}} you will win if the token lands in that slot.  You must pay 1 isotope per adventure. You get 3 balls per adventure, and all 3 are played on the same board.  You get a new board each adventure.


*I made movies of it with xvidcap and played them back and paused them to see what was happening. The image seems '''not''' to matter.  The peg style number as revealed by mouse-hover is what matters.  Peg style 1 goes right, peg style 2 goes left, and peg style 3 is random, regardless of the image-to-style-number mapping. --[[User:Greycat|Greycat]] 18:02, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Porko is a game playable in the Big-Time Generator adventure, and at The Porko Palace in Elvish Paradise.

When playing Porko, you are presented with a Pachinko-like game board featuring nine slots on the top row from which you can drop a token, a grid of pegs which will send the token left or right as it falls, and nine slots on the bottom row into which the tokens can fall.

During the Big-Time Generator adventure, you must get the token into a specific slot to complete the quest. This appears to be guaranteeable on a single try every time.

When playing at The Porko Palace, each slot will be labeled with a value from 0 to 3, indicating how many lunar isotopes you will win if the token lands in that slot. You must pay 1 isotope per adventure. You get 3 balls per adventure, and all 3 are played on the same board. You get a new board each adventure.

x2 x0 x1 x1 x3 x0 x3 x1 x3

Notes

  • There are three peg styles: , , and . Mouse over the image of the peg to determine if it is "peg style 1", "peg style 2", or "peg style 3". Peg style 1 will cause the chip to go right; peg style 2 will cause the chip to go left; peg style 3 could cause the chip to go left or right.
  • The relationship between peg style and peg image is consistent within each Porko board, but can change from game to game.

References

  • Both the name of the game and the way it's played are a reference to Plinko from the game show The Price Is Right. Plinko, in turn, is a variation of the iconic Japanese parlor game pachinko.
