The third victory is very often disappointing :) But this Grotesques have spread too much, every few days there is for me either the first game, or the second, or their spin-off :(

I've decided to start collecting credits instead, going 2 full rounds of 7 games: complete chopping at 0 malus, then intentionally lose 11 straight games 1 off to get as much credit as I can (got 0.08 and 3 errors, interestingly enough not a single time I got nothing or $0.02 or $0.04), then win picking at 5 and hoeing at 10. Let's see how long it takes me to get bored and get back to 3 keys in 7 games.

For 0.02 and 0.04 you need almost wins (7 of 8 trees; 59/60 grass 13/14 roots etc), but it's not so obvious there, and you'd rather get nothing. (maybe there is some ratio of time and points?)

Ye, that's exactly what I did, intentionally kept only 5s malus so I could get every game 1 off (even 1 swing off). 8x $0.01 + 3 errors out of 11 games.

How do you do it in 7 games? I can't wrap my head around it
1) there are 7 different minigames in Gameplay Giveaway Challenge
2) pretty much ANY of those 7 minigames is easy without the malus intact
3) most of those minigames are still easy at 5/7 malus (hoeing/watering/grass cutting) or luck based (fighting)
4) some of those minigames are still manageable at malus 10/14 (for me it's hoeing) or luck based (fighting, but you'll need ALL OF YOUR LUCK!)

For example you can start with getting the first key at chopping trees, then the second on grass cutting (need some concentration on the process, also the less errors the better) or watering (left-right technique) and the third one on the hoeing with the proper layout. Usually that's my routine every day, but sometimes I'm not as lucky. Or sometimes I'm even lucky to have some malus reduction (through creating giveaways and getting a positive feedback) that makes the malus not 7 & 14, but 5 & 10. And believe when I say you'll need EVERY second in those games.

I pretty much permanently have 5/10/15 malus since I do giveaways every day.

It's usually chopping at 0 malus, grass cutting or mining at 5 malus if I whiff on cutting and then I sometimes make watering at 10s (maybe 20% of the time) or get lucky with fighting and then sometimes finish hoeing at 15s as well, that's 4 keys. Most of the time I end up with 3 keys tho.

Not counting the days when I also buy something at the shop, 4 keys are almost guaranteed.

I've never won a single grass mow game with a malus, it's practically impossible for me lol. There are not enough one-hit grass patches (or I just don't see them idk).

finish hoeing at 15s as well, that's 4 keys
Do you use the trick to reset your field until you get something manageable or are you so good at the game that you can do it indefinitely? Most of the time I barely get it with a 10-second malus and you're talking about 15s lol.

Eh, since most of the time I don't make it to 15s challenge, I don't really bother with reloading, I haven't really got any that are clearly impossible to do (you can get somewhere between 50 and 70 "yellow" tiles). If you're doing 10s malus already, you need to make fewer errors and utilise all 4 directions more to get through 14s or even 15s. Have in mind that 15s is a 3x malus which makes it more difficult than just a mere 5s difference, timer moves faster with each malus, difference between 3x5 and 2x7 is massive. You should be getting into 70+/60 range on 10s malus.

Guess I'm just bad at it. Tried today with 5 malus all of them except hoeing - no wins, 0.04$ total from loses. I don't need to try hoeing to know that I won't be able to finish it with malus as well.

but hoeing is the EASIEST one, are you sure? Just look at the layout before starting the minigame and if it looks to hard just reload the page till you have the easiest (i.e. the most straightforward) layout.
