Join hydro_thunder001 as we explore the Neopedia article, unveil the secrets hidden in the wheel’s icons, and discover the thrilling (or not-so-thrilling) outcomes that await your Neopets.
Understanding the Wheel from Neopedia
The Wheel of Mediocrity, officially dubbed the “most mediocre game in Tyrannia,” is operated by Plesio, a Tyrannian Flotsam and captain of the Tyrannian Sea Division. Unlike its more glamorous counterparts, this wheel is constructed from ordinary materials, and as the name suggests, it’s not exactly the pinnacle of excitement. Despite its lackluster reputation, the Wheel of Mediocrity does offer prizes, ranging from Neopoints (NP) to peculiar encounters, such as a pet-biting Pterodactyl. Now, let’s delve into the prizes that this seemingly mundane wheel has to offer.
