Play the minigame to earn a special currency known as Mandy, which can be exchanged for a dizzying array of special rewards!

==Mandy (Currency)==
A currency used just for Mandragora Mania Madness, which is earned by playing a minigame and exchanged for special rewards.

==The Game==
The overall idea of the game is to score more points than your opponent. Be sure to look in the upper left corner of the screen to see the current score. [[Image:Mandragora_mania.jpg|right|250px]]

Mandragora Mania is similar to the real-world game of Mancala. The game board consists of eight hexagons. Your opponent controls three hexagons (the top row), and you control three hexagons (the bottom row). Both players share control of the middle (yellow) hexagons, meaning that both you and your opponent have a selection of five hexagons to work with. In the game menu, the five hexagons you control are numbered 1 through 5, from left to right, with #2 and #4 being the shared yellow hexagons. Each player also controls their "base", the large rectangle they stand on.

On a player's turn, they select one of the five hexagons they control. The mandragoras on that hexagon are then distributed to adjacent hexagons or base in a counter-clockwise order, one mandragora per hexagon. If the distribution puts a mandragora on a player's "base", then that player keeps the mandragora placed on their base, and gains points based on that type of mandragora. If the distribution would place a mandragora on the other player's base, it is skipped; it is not possible to place a mandragora on your opponent's base and give them points by accident. If the distribution ends exactly at a player's base, they get another turn.

It is not possible to select a hexagon with zero mandragora on it. The game ends when either you or your opponent cannot make a move (i.e., have zero mandragora on all five hexagons they control), and the player with the most points wins.

Each Mandragora is worth a different amount of points:
*1 Point
**Normal Mandragoras
*2 Points/3 Points
**Korrigans and Pachypodiums
***For the player who moves first in the game, they are worth 2 points. For the player who moves second, they are worth 3.
*3 Points/4 Points
**Citrullus and Adenium
***For the player who moves first in the game, they are worth 3 points. For the player who moves second, they are worth 4.

Even if you lose, you keep all Jingly you earn. If you quit the game, you lose all jingly earned so far that game. The prizes are a "cumulative jingly earned" similar to cumulative Hallmarks in [[Ambuscade]].

There are a total of ten opponents to play against. The later opponents are tougher they are because they make smarter moves.

If you have unlocked prizes or opponents in the prior years event, they will remain unlocked in the current year.

==Previous Year Rewards & Statistics==
During every year's Vana'versary Event, two moogles appear in town that are not mentioned in the event post on the PlayOnline website. Historically they were part of the '''Adventurer Appreciation Campaign''' but in recent years that campaign as been merged together with a new (or recycled) Vana'versary event.

See below for details on these moogles, and be sure to visit them during the Vana'versary.

{{icon|Windurst|small}} [[Windurst Woods]] (K-10) & [[Windurst Waters]] (north side) (F-5)
