How do I earn stars?
Escape for one star, gather all pearls for two, or gather every pearl and all ten rings in the same run for three. Normal progression earns Perfect and Ultimate; assisted/custom settings keep practice stars and Pretty Good. Earn Ultimate on all 100 cups to start New Game Plus.
Can I play on a plane?
Yes. Gameplay, levels, artwork and audio are stored in the app. Buying or restoring the full game requires internet. Once the purchase is verified, you can play offline.
Where is my progress saved?
Completed cups and achievements are saved locally, with a recovery copy. Ordinary app updates preserve progress. An unfinished cup starts over. Use Settings → Export Progress to save a backup before deleting the app or changing phones; use Import Progress to restore it. The game does not automatically sync between devices.
How do I restore a purchase?
Open Unlock full game from the Tea Wall, then choose Restore Purchases. Use the Apple Account that made the purchase and connect to the internet. Restoring the purchase restores access, not your saved gameplay progress.
Can I listen to my own music?
Start music in another app that supports background playback, return to Boba Dragon, and mute game music in Settings if you prefer. Music and game effects have separate controls. Tea Spirit is the default soundtrack. Warm Bubbles is also available in Settings.
What happens when I collect ten rings?
Your dragon glows with golden energy as the tea boils and all surviving ice disappears. Movement pauses for 1.35 seconds, then you get 45 seconds of active ice-free play. A second brief pause and frost animation bring the ice back with up to ten extra cubes. Ice destroyed by fire stays gone, and occupied cells wait until the dragon passes. Supported iPhones give a rumbling haptic effect during the transitions.
How do pirate ships work?
Pirates appear from cup 11. Fire from their outer circle; entering the inner danger circle starts a three-second warning. Any part of the dragon still inside can be hit. Each ship takes two fire hits and unlocks four guarded pearls when it sinks. Flame pickups recharge after collection. You can turn pirates off in Settings for practice play.
