Catch Master

Tackle Box Odds

The chance of everything a box can hold, before you open one

Tackle boxes hold random cards for your fish album. Boxes are bought with coins, and coins can also be bought with real money, so here are the odds of every item a box can hold. The game shows the same table before you buy: open the album and tap ODDS, or the (i) beside any box.

How each card is picked

  • The odds are per card. Each card in a box is drawn on its own: first its star level, from the table for that box, then one card of that star level. No box guarantees a star level.
  • Within a star level, a card missing from your album has weight 2 and a card you already hold has weight 1, so a missing card is twice as likely as one you have.
  • Boxes hold cards from the album sets open at your harbor. The table below shows how many cards of each star level that is.
  • Jokers and pet treats are drawn once per box, on top of the cards.

Cards in the boxes by harbor

Cards of each star level in the boxes, by harbor
Your harbor 1 star2 star3 star4 star5 star
Harbors 3 to 12 481095
Harbors 13 to 18 41113116
Harbor 19 and up 41316138

The album and its boxes open at harbor 3. The chance that one card is a particular card is its star level's chance, times that card's weight, divided by the total weight of its star level. For example, a captain at harbor 3 with no 5-star cards yet has 5 of them missing, all equally likely, so each card of a Magic Box is one particular 5-star card with a chance of 5% ÷ 5 = 1%.
