Gear and the Supporter Pack

Hats, suits, capes and wings for your pet. Every piece is just for looks: nothing you wear, earn or buy makes a pet stronger.

Our promise

  • Nothing that can be bought changes a battle, care, levels or anything else in the game.
  • Nothing random is ever sold. Crates and keys are only ever earned by playing.
  • Everything in the shop is shown exactly as you will get it, and you can try it on first.
  • No countdowns, no "only today" and nothing that runs out. The shop is always the same.
  • Buying only happens in the Android app, and a grown-up step comes first every time.

Looks you earn by playing

Most of the gear in Maatjie Arena is earned. Win battles to earn battle crates, and look after your pet when it needs you to earn care crates. Every crate comes with its own key, so there is nothing to buy to open one. The chance of every item is on the drop tables page, and an earned piece can come in its own slightly different shade, so yours may be one of a kind.

The shop

In the Android app, the shop sells looks for your pet, one piece at a time: the six sets below, Round Glasses, a Bow Tie, the Tufted look, the Sunny and Dusk colours and the Spots pattern. Each piece is bought once, stays yours, and shows Google Play's own price in your own currency before you decide.

Like everything else that can be bought, the Supporter Pack is just for looks. It never makes a pet stronger, faster or luckier.

How buying works

  1. A grown-up holds a button for a few seconds and answers a quick sum.
  2. The app shows exactly what is being bought.
  3. Google Play takes the payment. We never see card details.

If a purchase is refunded, its items are taken back. Deleting an account also gives up what was bought for it, and the deletion screen says so before anything is deleted.

Swapping with friends

Friends who have both added each other can swap gear, one item for another. Swaps never involve money, carry no messages and need a safety code that a grown-up sets up on both accounts. A newly received item waits 7 days before it can be swapped again.
