Calamari Kid is a new game for the iOS and Android platforms where your goal is to hunt for treasure, dive down as far as you can, and try not to die, because if you do, you lose all of your treasure. Read on for some tips, cheats, hints, strategies, and tricks for Calamari Kid!
The control method in this game is to tap the screen in order to change direction. What this means is that when you tap the screen, your character turns to the right, but if you let off of the screen, then your character turns to the left. So a good balance between tapping and letting go is required in order for your character to go straight. And the faster that you tap, the faster your character goes, which has both benefits and drawbacks.
If you hit an obstacle and die, you’ll be able to start again right away, but you will lose all of your treasure. Luckily, you’ll start just behind where you left off, and all of your lost treasure will be floating by where you died, like getting hit in a Sonic game, so you’ll be able to pick up as much treasure as possible right away.
You can purchase new characters using the gold that you earn, as well. Each character performs the same as every other character; they just have a different design, and you can build a collection with them. The first new character costs 3,000 gold, but the ones after it cost far less, so move beyond that first character to search for cheaper ones.
You can go premium in this game for a price of $2.99 per week. If you do, you get more keys, you get double the coins, and you’ll never have to see an ad in this game again, unless you want to. Or, if you want to keep playing for free, just close out of the “go premium” screen and keep on playing.
If you do die, then all of the other treasure that you collect, besides gold, stays with you. Then, when you get to the bottom of the level, you can earn a ton of gold by tapping rapidly after you dig into the pile. Once you finish digging, then you’ll be able to voluntarily choose to watch an ad to double your coins. Even if you go premium, you can still do the ad offer to double your coins.
