  • Blue Level 2 = Purple Level 1
  • Blue Level 4 = Purple Level 2 = Golden Level 1
  • Purple Level 4 = Golden Level 2

Type of Masks

Here are five different types of masks you can find in the game

  • Type I: Call Dance Partner/s – These masks call backup dancers to the team and increase the number of participants in the team. Examples: Penguin, Hippogriff, Quetzalcoatlus
  • Type II: Strengthen Your Dancer/s – These masks provide some means of bonuses to strengthen your team while leaving the dance floor or popularity is reduced. Examples: Parrot, Gargoyle, Phoenix
  • Type III: Weaken Opponent Dancer/s – Reduce the popularity of your opponent’s dances and make it easier to defeat them. Examples: Fox, Whale, Leopard
  • Type IV: Multi-Action Masters – This type of mask combines multiple effects for a well-balanced attack. Examples: Jellyfish, Evil Specter, Angel
  • Type V: Weaken Own Dancer/s – These masks harm your own dancers by reducing popularity or by some other means. Example: Monkey, Toxic Mushroom, Black Widow

Note

  • The order in which you place your masks matters! Experiment to find the best combo.
