All flash games have their own individual and unique trophy that is given out at Midnight (12:00 NST I believe) and this occurs daily, and for regular non-flash games, it depends. For Cheat! and Go! Go! Go!, you need to defeat the challengers, and Cheat!’s pretty easy to get, just keep trying. For other games such as Caption Contest and Story Telling, you need to think up something witty and unique that the Neopets team will choose (for the Story Telling), and you will get a trophy for getting your segment of their story accepted. For the Caption Contest, I guess it’s all based on popularity and wit. If your caption is really funny, it’s most probable that you will get a trophy, but of course Neopets makes it random so each time you do visit that part of the site, a new caption appears.
For games such as Mystery Picture and Lenny Conundrum, you need to have speed, and some logic. In Mystery Picture, you will need to have some site knowledge because its a picture on Neopets you have to find, and being one of the first people to find it will award you with a trophy. For Lenny Conundrum, you will need a lot of logic to figure out their mathematical problem. (Let me tell you as an experienced Neopets player that these questions are not always easy).
Better Than You! is one of those games that reinforce the thought that if you’re good at a particular game, and continue to excel in it, you might win a trophy, if Neopets decide to spotlight that game. If they don’t, then work on another game, or try your luck on that game. **TIP: Have one back up account, just in case you run out of the “3-a-day” thing, so you can’t get credit for the game**
Pet Spotlight, Site Spotlight, and The Neopian Times trophies are those that can be acquired with excellence in that particular area. For instance, if you are good at writing stories about your pet, why not draw a picture of it, and write something witty and submit it. You have infinite chances to try, each occurring in different rounds, and if you win, its a trophy! If you’re good at site building, make an excellent site, write something about your pet, and submit it! And finally, if you are good at writing long and boring essays (like me :)) then try for the last trophy from this category, The Neopian Times.
The Beat Punchbag Bob trophy is the easiest to earn (in my opinion) probably because it only takes less than 10 minutes to accomplish. All you do is pick your strongest more than one time use items, and use fierce (or berserk) attack, and repeatedly click the button. It takes time, but after some time you will beat him.
Lastly, the trophies that don’t require anything special are the Bonus trophies, which can be earned by repeatedly beating a non-flash game, such as Pyramids.
It will take a lot of time to earn a lot of trophies, but it’s well worth it when people are amazed at the amount of trophies you have earned. Good trophy hunting!
