The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- When the crank is turned, a music box mechanism in the toy plays a melody.
- After the crank has been turned a sufficient number of times, the lid pops open and a figure, usually a clown or jester, pops out of the box.
- Some jacks-in-the-box open at random times when cranked, making the startle even more effective.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Jack-in-the-box article was read about 57,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 56 and blocks with 40: each hit it takes is cut by 16 %.
How to get Jack-in-the-box
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
