# Whack the Villain

## Background

Whack the Villain takes its roots from a real Chinese folk ritual which is especially popular in Guangdong and Hong Kong regions. People symbolically beat paper effigies to banish bad energy, gossipers, and bringers of bad luck.

## The SUPERFORTUNE twist

In SUPERFORTUNE, Whack the Villain becomes a full-blown clicking minigame. If you own a Fortune Charm, you're in.

You pick a villain, upload a face if you want, then whack away. Every strike earns you Fortune Points.

Here's what you can do:

* Whack to earn Fortune. Each hit generates Fortune points to level up your Fortune Charm
* Upgrade your weapon. Better weapon = more power = more points per hit.
* Buy more hits when running low on daily strikes. Spend QIAN to increase your limit.
