What Is The Wheel Of Misfortune?The Wheel of Misfortune is located in the Deserted Fairground. The cost to spin the wheel is 150 neopoints. You can spin the wheel once every two hours. And of course, you can only spin the wheel on your main account.
During the Save the Wheels site event in July, 2010, the Wheel of Misfortune was saved. The Wheel was redrawn from its old version and the prizes were revised. In this guide, you can see the various prizes available from the new Wheel of Misfortune.
Since this is a site feature that gives out neopoint rewards and prizes, you may not visit the Wheel of Misfortune on your side accounts. For more information look at our side accounts guide.

Spinning Within Two Hours
You can only spin the wheel again 2 hours after you've last collected your prize. If you try to do so before that time has passed, the creepy shadow will tell you to come back later.

Skirmish Battles Wheel Boon
The ongoing Neopets event: Skirmish Battles, will award certain boons if your team wins. One of those is called Right Round Round Round. This boon allows you to spin each neopian wheel two times (Excitement, Extravagance, Knowledge, Mediocrity, Misfortune and Monotony) before having to wait the usual time to spin again. It is available from a win from Brute Squad, The Seekers, or randomly Awakened.
