Guide

To start the game, you will first need to find Nyriki Tapio at one of the hunting areas scattered throughout RuneScape. The easiest way to find out and reach his current location is to step through his orange portal on the first floor of the house south of the Gnome agility course, at the Tree Gnome Stronghold. Left-clicking the portal and selecting "Check" will make a timer showing when he is approximately going to spawn. Do remember that the portal can only be used 3 times a day and is a one-way portal, meaning that you will have to find your own way back. Below is a list of all the possible locations where he could be found.

Note: Nyriki Tapio's location changes every hour and the game itself can only be played twice a day. Games start at the top of every hour.

When you have found Nyriki Tapio, descend down into the nearby cave and you will be given a Moth jar. Your goal is to let the big chinchompa in the center of area fall asleep by feeding it the moths you caught. The game's interface will show you the time remaining, the amount of moths you have caught, the type of moths you have caught, and how many points you have gained so far in the current game. The bar to the left of your screen will show how sleepy the big chinchompa is. A game ends when the 20 minutes are over, or when the Plutonial Chinchompa falls asleep.

Note: You can join a game that is already in progress, but you will have less time to collect points.

There are 2 ways to collect these soporith moths. You can either catch flying moths with your hands or by shaking the branches scattered throughout the area. It is also advised to pick and wield a Protea flower from one of the bushes in the corners of the cave. When wielded, soporith moths will occasionally be attracted by its nectar and automatically caught by you. The reason why wielding such a flower is recommended is that the attracted moths will always be the highest ones you can catch.

The moth jar can hold up to 15 moths. When full, moths need to be released into the Chinchompa's nest in order to gain more points. The maximum amount of points that can be gained in a game is 1500. However, after this experience may still be gained for releasing moths. One of the requirements for the Completionist cape is having gained a minimum of 1111 points in one single game.
