How Do I Get a Guide/Seeker?

There are many ways to obtain a Guide/Seeker!

❥ The most straightforward way is to buy one from our monthly adopt batches. Adopt sale dates are announced at the beginning of each month. There are also MYO ticket sales every month! Pricing is as follows: Natural MYO ticket ($15/1500 points), Synthetic MYO ticket ($25/2500 points), special seasonal subspecies MYO ticket ($30/3000 points).

❥ Another way is to participate in monthly prompts to earn leaves and pebbles. Every month, a new prompt will be announced in the news tab, and you can earn currency by participating. You can then spend the currency in our shop for a MYO ticket! A list of currently active prompts can be found here.

❥ Apart from adopt sales and in game currency, Guide and Seeker designs as well as MYOs can be obtained by participating in group events. Usually we hold events every few months, with an event shop at the end that usually contains MYO tickets for sale. Keep an eye out on the news tab for upcoming events!
