Posted by What’s more fun than a relaxing day at the beach? A spirited showdown between friends! Introducing our latest feature, “Beach Buddies”, where friends play together to win points with each level won and reap rewards. With every level won, your Mini-Tiki avatars will work together to collectively build an epic sandcastle, and you will win some sweet prizes with each milestone.
Who will reign supreme? With the ultimate bragging rights on the line, everyone ultimately wins and both of you will walk away with the grand prize.
Let’s dive deeper into the nitty gritty!
What’s Beach Buddies All About?
On the main screen, select the Beach Buddies icon on the left side of the main island screen to dive in! Once the game opens, partner up with one of your buddies who is currently online and launch your mission to build the ultimate sand castle!
If no buddies appear on your list, you can expand your friend circle by sending invitations to people in your Club or your suggested friends list. If you’re not yet in a Club, join one with at least 2 members, and you’re ready to roll! Once an invitation has been accepted (whether by you or your friend), both parties will receive a notification that you’re ready to start building!
Here’s how the game works:
- Play new levels on Tiki Solitaire TriPeaks to earn spins on the wheel.
- Spins turn into points, and points fill up your team’s progress meter.
- As you rack up points, your sandcastle grows and unlocks progressively better prizes.
- The ultimate goal? Finish the sandcastle and claim the grand prize together!
It’s the perfect blend of teamwork, strategy, speed and beach vibes (minus the sunburn).
Earn Points, Unlock Prizes, Repeat to Complete!
Points are the building blocks of your sandy masterpiece. Here’s how to accumulate them:
- Play new solitaire levels to earn spins on the wheel. Winning a level will give you more spins (up to 3), but every effort counts!
- Use those spins to earn points that fill your team’s meter. Points can range from 10 to 100 per spin, depending on which tier the shovel lands on.
- As your meter grows, so does your sandcastle, unlocking bigger and better rewards along the way.
Tip: You can see which levels have available spins by looking for the wheel icon next to the level node on the map.
What If My Buddy’s a Beach Bum?
Sometimes your buddy might not be as active as you’d hoped. No worries! Just like when a friend ditches the sandcastle effort to grab a snack or take a dip in the ocean, you can still complete the event and earn all the rewards on your own, it just might take a little more time and effort. Keep playing, spinning, racking up the prizes, and building your sandcastle to completion.
The Fine Print (a.k.a. Important Details)
- You can only participate in one Beach Buddies event at a time.

- You need to complete the event before starting a new one.
- If you receive an invite from a friend, but can’t see the Beach Buddies icon on the main screen, restart your app, and it should appear.
