Palia Pop-A-Chapaa Minigame Explained: How To Play, Rewards And More

Chapaas are one of the many unique species Palians can discover through exploration of the overworld, which are huntable creatures. As they drop various loot, including fur, meat, and adorable plushies, they've also inspired many activities and events, which have debuted at the Maji Market.

The latest market minigame, Pop-A-Chapaa, draws inspiration from the three Chapaa types, which Palians can use their bow and arrows to pop Chapaa balloons to earn tickets. This popping guide explains everything we know about the Pop-A-Chapaa minigame, including gameplay rules, rewards, and more in Palia.

What Is The Pop-A-Chapaa Minigame Explained In Palia?

Palians who visit the Kilima Village Fairgrounds when the Maji Market is open will experience a few minigames on hand to enjoy solo or work together in a Party to earn additional rewards. With the Maji Market signaling the return of the Chapaa Chase minigame, two new minigames have joined the festivities, and one of these latest additions is the Pop-A-Chapaa minigame.

What is this minigame exactly? Well, it's a balloon activity in which Palians must target various balloons that have been released into the Palian sky and must target using their best archery skills.

Aim and fire their arrows at these balloons to earn Maji Market Tickets; if they work together with others, there's a Group Bonus, which nets them more tickets. Oh, and don't worry about losing arrows for this minigame, as they'll have infinite arrows to use for this minigame, so keep firing away at the balloons!

How To Play The Pop-A-Chapaa Minigame In Palia?

Participating in the Pop-A-Chapaa minigame is relatively straightforward for all to accomplish. They must first head to the Kilima Village Fairgrounds, where the Maji Market is held, make their way towards the docks beside the amphitheater, and find a good spot before the event begins.

Speaking of starting times, the Pop-A-Chapaa minigame begins at 8 pm Palian time daily for the duration of the Maji Market, so ensure that the bow is equipped. If they're setting up a Party, ensure that all invites have been sent and members have joined before the minigame starts.

Three unique types of Chapaa-themed balloons award Palians with Maji Market Tickets when they're popped with their bow and (infinite) arrows! The Simple, Stripped, and Azure Chapaa balloons all reward Palians with various amounts of Maji Market Tickets, with the Simple (small) Chapaa balloon awarding one ticket, the Stripped (medium) Chapaa balloon awarding three tickets, and the Azure (large) Chapaa balloon rewarding them with 30 tickets.
