(OLD) The Offering: How to Consistently Earn 5000+ Points
By Knoxklay11 and 1 collaborators
Here is a far easier method to consistently land the ball into the center cup in The Offering arcade game compared to other guides I've seen. No power or timing strategies necessary!

The Strategy
As is the case with the game's much simpler real-life counterpart, a great strategy to ensure the ball accurately lands into a cup is to bounce the ball onto the tabletop first. The same is true for this game with the use of the strategy outlined in this guide. Instead of throwing the ball directly into the cups or relying on complicated ricochet methods, we will merely be bouncing the ball off the red platform closest to the front of the machine and directly into the center cup on every try.
Reference
Here is the guide I based my strategy on, though I ended up positioning my ball in a slightly different location.

Other than the ball location, the settings and the strategy are roughly the same.

Additional strategies can also be found in Breedofspeed's guide here: https://gtm.you1.cn/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2067539737
Positioning




Here is how I positioned my ball.

It may be frustrating, but try your hardest to match my position (or any other position you find that works consistently.) This may take several tries. The game unfortunately demands that you be extremely precise.
Graphical Settings
I'm still not sure how much this mattered, but this is what I was using when I got my 5000+ points.

FPS Limit: 24

FOV - Field of View (Greatly helps with aiming): 50
Player Model (IMPORTANT)

IMPORTANT - Your character size/perspective heavily influences the positioning of where you should aim and throw/bounce the ball. The skeleton is a consistent and standardized player model that will always be available, unlike models frequently recommended in other guides that may/may not work anymore.

Upon becoming a skeleton, equip a Large size potion. These can be purchased from Stray the Cat, who has a shop at the top of the lighthouse.

Start the Game
After starting the game, try to position the ball in the position I found. You can use the Z button to zoom in, making aiming and adjustments much easier.


Once you find the magic spot, DO NOT move your mouse. Simply tap on the spacebar or whatever button you prefer to drop the ball and bounce it off of the red platform closest to you, causing the ball to land squarely into the center cup. DO NOT hold the button down for any length of time, merely tap it quickly. You are literally just letting the ball go and allowing it to drop on the platform and bounce the rest of the way.

BE VERY CAREFUL WHEN PRESSING THE BUTTON, as you might end up moving your mouse slightly.

This may take a few sessions/attempts, but don't get discouraged! Once you find the spot, you will consistently get the ball into the center cup on every try.
The Strategy in Action
Here is a video of Breedofspeed consistently landing the ball in the center cup using the strategy outlined in this guide. As you can see, once you find the right spot, the game becomes a no-brainer.

Success!


Once you finally figure it out, revel in your victory! You have just triumphed over one of the most difficult and frustrating arcade games the Warp Zone has to offer... so far.

Best of luck to you! (Look at what we have to resort to just to score big on such a seemingly simple arcade game...) If you have any recommendations or alternate strategies that may be even easier than mine, please feel free to share them in the comments!

Sadly I believe this strategy is now obsolete with the new changes made to the offering. I've tried and it never got even close to working with the new square holes. I was too late to this and so far the new offering feels far more inconsistent and harder thanks to the new holes and the ufo.

took me a while to get it to work, but setting my fps limit to 24 made it work straight away! great guide and super easy to do when you know how :)

I was struggling with this for over 2 hours or more, but I finally did this. I forgot one important thing, which was setting the FPS limit to 24. After I did that, I instantly got all the balls in the center cup! Thank you so much for the guide!

WORKED LIKE A CHARM, THANKS. I drove myself crazy trying to find a sweetspot with full power throws, this is way better.

Can you post a screenshot of where you are aiming next time you try to play? There must be something wrong, weve tested this method repeatedly and it works every time once we find the right spot. Make sure you are just quickly tapping the mouse button, dont hold it for ANY length of time, or else it will bounce everywhere and miss. Literally just holding the ball up and dropping it.

I have. But the balls bounce all over the place, or doesn't bounce at all from the bottom.
