I’ve already sunk a good chunk of time into the Fruit Pinball Treasure Event, and it’s honestly one of the most fun and rewarding mini-events Survivor.io has added in a while. It runs from January 1 to January 6, and everything about it feels designed to quietly shower you with high-value resources if you play it smart.
Survivor.io Fruit Pinball Treasure Event – Complete Guide
This event works like a Plinko board. You drop balls, pray to the RNG gods, and slowly build your way into some extremely juicy milestone rewards, including Transmute Cores and Relic Core Choice Chests.
How You Enter the Event
To play, you collect Apple Tickets by completing event missions. These tickets are then exchanged for Apple Balls, which are what you actually drop on the pinball board.
You automatically start with a few free tickets, and from there you can earn more through:
- Event missions
- Watching ads for bonus tickets
- Buying extra tickets with gems
- Optional paid bundles in the shop
If you finish every mission during the event, you can collect a total of 1,740 Apple Tickets, which is more than enough to unlock multiple major milestone rewards.
How the Pinball Board Works
Once you have Apple Balls, you drop them from the top of the board. They bounce around and land in reward baskets at the bottom. Each basket has its own reward counter.
Every time a ball lands in a basket, that basket gets closer to paying out its prize. When the required number is reached, you instantly receive that reward.
Some baskets are marked in red. These are special.
Party Mode – Where the Real Loot Starts
When enough balls land in the red baskets, you trigger Party Mode.
Party Mode is where things get wild.
- The game automatically drops 200 free watermelon balls for you
- These balls can fill multiple baskets very quickly
- If a basket fills during Party Mode, you instantly claim its reward
- After Party Mode ends, the red basket positions shuffle to keep things unpredictable
The first time I triggered Party Mode, I didn’t think much of it. After the second and third, I realized this is where a massive chunk of your rewards will come from.
The more Party Modes you trigger, the faster your milestone progress explodes.
Milestone Rewards You Should Care About
This event has some of the strongest milestone rewards we’ve seen recently. As you spend tickets and play the board, you unlock:
- S Supply Keys
- S-Grade Crates
- Legendary Choice Chests
- Transmute Cores (up to 8 total)
- Relic Core Choice Chests
- Epic Tech Parts
- Clan-wide bonus rewards
Transmute Cores are especially important because they’re used for Xeno transmute upgrades, and they’re extremely limited in normal gameplay. This event is one of the easiest ways to stack them.
Fruit Basket Exchange Shop
Every drop also gives you fruit baskets, which act like event currency. You can exchange these for:
- S-Grade Crates
- SP Survivor Omni Shards
- Relic Cores and Transmute Cores
- Catnips outfit
- Pet cookies
- Essence and upgrade materials
Even casual participation earns enough baskets to grab several premium items, while active players can fully clean out the most valuable parts of the shop.
Realistic Reward Expectations
From my own testing and average pulls:
- Each snack ticket gives roughly 16+ gift boxes
- Spending around 1,500 tickets can easily net you 24,000+ gift boxes
- That’s enough to unlock multiple high-tier milestone rewards and still have plenty left for the shop
This is one of those rare Survivor.io events where you actually feel your progress stacking up fast instead of crawling forward.
Important Things to Remember
- Any balls still falling when the event ends will not give rewards
- Unfinished Party Modes do not carry over
- Long-press auto mode will automatically convert tickets into balls if you run out
- Triggering Party Mode as often as possible should be your main goal
This event is absolutely worth your time. Between the Transmute Cores, Relic Core Choice Chests, and S-Grade gear, this is one of the most efficient value events Survivor.io has offered recently. Even if you’re free-to-play, the amount of high-end loot you can pull out of this is honestly kind of ridiculous.
If you were ever waiting for a good moment to stock up on rare cores and premium gear, this is that moment.
