DNA and Amber

Dinopark includes **a DNA pieces system to allow players to get free items**, including items costing ammonites.

Usually 6 DNA pieces of a given item are needed to complete it and receive the item in the inventory.

**Missing DNA pieces can be bought with amber**, which are obtained by scrapping unused DNA pieces.

## Getting DNA pieces

There are several ways of getting DNA pieces:

### **New zoo level**

When reaching a new zoo level, 3 random pieces are shown to the player who can pick one (or reroll the pieces for 1 ammonite). The chosen piece is also sent to all the player's friends (and the player receives the chosen piece of his/her friends when they level up).

Possible pieces are the same as friend chests content.

### **Monthly rewards**

Each month, 6 pieces of a dinosaur are given throughout the month as log in rewards (that may change on special occasions).

### **Friend chests**

   Each time a player helps a friend or is helped by a friend, a friendship point is gained. Every 10 points, a friend chest can be opened which contains 8 random pieces (except for the items exclusive to higher level chests). The content of the chest is revealed, but the pieces are turned over and the player can freely pick 4 of them. To get more than 4 pieces, the player has the option to spend one key per piece picked. Additional keys cost 6 ammonites each.

### **Rare chests**

   Rare chests can be bought for coins (the amount needed increases by 250 coins per level). In addition to the friend chest's content, they may contain rarer pieces and free decorations.

### **Epic Chests**

    They can be bought for 29 ammonites but some are given as rewards for quests, zoo levels or events. In addition to the rare chest's content, they are more likely to contain legendary pieces. Periodically, pieces of a chest-exclusive dinosaur receive an active bonus to be found in the chests, and a piece of that animal is guaranteed to be in the chest content (though it is not guaranteed you will find it within the 4 free DNA cards).

### **Retro Chests**

    They can be bought for 39 ammonites but some are given as rewards for quests, zoo levels or events. In addition to the rare chest's content, they are more likely to contain legendary pieces. Periodically, pieces of a chest-exclusive dinosaur receive an active bonus to be found in the chests, and a piece of that animal is guaranteed to be in the chest content (though it is not guaranteed you will find it within the 4 free DNA cards).

### **Legendary Chests**

    They can be bought for 49 ammonites but some are given as rewards for quests, zoo levels or events. In addition to the rare chest's content, they are even more likely to contain legendary pieces. Periodically, pieces of a chest-exclusive dinosaur receive an active bonus to be found in the chests, and a piece of that animal is guaranteed to be in the chest content (though it is not guaranteed you will find it within the 4 free DNA cards).

### Bonus
