Castings

Castings are currently available only to the French version of the Mush game, and are in Beta testing, which is due to end shortly.

  • Purchase Ticket.png with extended Gold.png mode selections. Each time aboard a ship on which 10+ days elapse, each member still alive at that point receives 1 Ticket.png. Gold.png Mode users may buy more tickets, see purchase options for details.

On the French Mush, Freeticket.png are also accrued (up to a maximum of 2) for simply playing Mush. One Freeticket.png is earned for each ship completed, up to the maximum number allowed. Gold.png Mode users may have larger numbers of Freeticket.png. Ticket.png can also be purchased from the Vending machine.
