Three-Icon Minigame

The minigame is one of the fun ways in which you’re encouraged to keep playing Hellgate. It’s something that can be completely ignored, if you wish, but if you keep track of what you’re doing, you can use it to get some nice rewards.

You can expect a small pile of goods to plop down if you manage to complete the minigame, even if you happen to be in town at the time.

The minigame appears in the lower-right corner of the screen, near your power meter and quest tracking. It consists of three small icons; usually these icons will have numbers on them. If you can count the numbers on the icons down to zero and light all three of them up, you’ll instantly witness three or four high-quality items drop at your feet.

Of course, lighting up the icons is tough to do. There are a few ways in which you can light up icons:

Killing monsters of a certain type.
Looting items of a certain type.
Completing a quest.
Deal or receive damage of a certain type.

Say, for instance, that your three icons are a set of fangs, a sword, and a fire symbol. This would mean that you would need to kill Beast-type enemies (the fangs), pick up a melee weapon of some sort (the sword) and deal or receive fire damage (the fire icon). If you can do so repeatedly and often enough to drop the numbers on all of your icons to zero, then a hail of rare items will drop at your feet. At this point, the mini-game will reset, allowing you to start again.

Here’s a chart of the different icons that you can get in the mini-game.
