The Gacha Garden

Creators Guide

Gacha isnโ€™t for the ordinaryโ€”itโ€™s for the bold, the creative, the unexpected. The Gacha Garden is not the place for your everyday releases. Here, your set needs to stand out, tell a story, and spark excitement. Think quirky, imaginative, and irresistibly collectibleโ€”something shoppers canโ€™t just find on a shelf in your store. Each piece should feel like part of a world they want to complete. Make it magical. Make it memorable. Make it something they canโ€™t wait to collect!

๐Ÿ“˜ Please review the event guidelines before participating.
They explain everything you need to know. If you have questions, our team is here to help through the support Portal.

Gacha Guidelines

๐Ÿ”น Permissions
All gacha items must be No Copy / Yes Transfer.
All fatpack items must be Yes Copy / No Transfer.

๐Ÿ”น Exclusivity
Gacha sets and SOIs must be new and remain exclusive to the event for the duration of that round.
Items may not be sold anywhere else, including in your store or on Marketplace, before or during the event.
Once the event ends, you are free to sell your gachas and fatpacks wherever you choose.
To preserve the value and excitement of the gacha experience, we ask that SOIs not be included in any fatpacks.
These limited edition rewards are meant to encourage and celebrate gacha play during the event.
Recolors and reworks of previous items are welcome as long as they are clearly distinguishable from the original.

๐Ÿ”น Packaging
Each prize must be boxed with the ad image included inside.

๐Ÿ”น Item Naming
All prizes must be named to match the ad image clearly. This helps players recognize the items they receive and confirms that everything shown is inside the machine.

Required Format:
ITEM NUMBER - ITEM NAME - SET NAME - BRAND
Example: 01 Fairy Wings - Enchanted Forest - YourBrand

If the item is rare, you must also include the word RARE at the end of the item name.
Example: 02 Crystal Antlers - Enchanted Forest - YourBrand RARE

๐Ÿ”น Rarity Balance
Each set must include at least 1 rare per 10 commons.
You may include more, but not less.
We recommend 1 to 2 rares per 10 to keep things exciting.

๐Ÿ”น Rare Labeling
Ultra-rare items are not allowed. All rare items must be clearly labeled with RARE in the name, as noted above.

๐Ÿ”น Content Rules
No pornographic content. Adult items are allowed, but ads must not show sex acts or genitalia.

SOI Guidelines

๐Ÿ”น Permissions
The Seed of Inspiration must be No Copy / Yes Transfer.

๐Ÿ”น Availability
Each gacha set must include one SOI. It is gifted automatically after 20 pulls.

๐Ÿ”น Exclusivity
The SOI must be permanently retired after the event ends. It cannot be resold, given away, or repackaged in any way after the event.

๐Ÿ”น Naming
SOI items must include “SOI” at the end of the item name to make them easy to identify.

Required Format:
ITEM NAME - SET NAME - BRAND SOI
Example: Fairy Wings - Enchanted Forest - YourBrand SOI

This helps shoppers recognize they are receiving the Seed of Inspiration and prevents confusion with regular prizes.

Image Rules

๐Ÿ”น Two Required Ads
You must submit two square images per set:
โ€“ One for your gacha items
โ€“ One for your Seed of Inspiration (SOI)
The SOI must not appear on the main gacha ad, since it retires after the event.

๐Ÿ”น Item Labeling
All items in your gacha ad must be clearly labeled so players can easily identify what they receive.

๐Ÿ”น Image Format
All ad images must be perfectly square (example: 1024×1024) to display properly on the blog and HUD.

๐Ÿ”น Content Restrictions
No explicit adult content. Ads may not include visible genitalia or sexual acts.

โœจ Please double-check your ads before submitting to make sure they follow these rules.
