The Mysterious Symol Hole
The Mysterious Symol Hole in Meridell is so small that only Petpets can fit through the tight opening. After squeezing in there, a Petpet may return with exclusive items, Neopoints, or even enjoy an increase in strength. As such it's no wonder that many Neopians visit the hole in hopes of being rewarded.

Finding the Symol Hole
The Symol Hole is located in Meridell, although it is not labeled on the map. Instead, you simply click the unmarked hole next to Turmaculus, or of course just use the direct link.
How to Play
When you visit the Symol Hole, you'll see a picture of your Petpet and a command labelled "ENTER!". There are several different options as to how you wish to enter the Symol Hole, such as cannonballing or climbing down slowly, but what you select has no effect on the outcome.
Once you've picked your method of entry, you will start getting updates as your petpet explores:
Climb down slowly |
Dive in with eyes open or Dive in with eyes closed |
CANNONBALL! or BELLYFLOP! |

Prizes
After these three updates over a few seconds, you will ultimately get one of four possible outcomes:
- nothing happens (by far the most common)
- you win an exclusive item (listed in the next section)
- you win between 50 and 250 Neopoints
- your Petpet gets a level increase
In addition to one of these outcomes, you can also randomly win the Symol Hole avatar. It can happen at the same time as winning another prize, and it can also happen when you win nothing.

Sometimes when nothing happens you will receive the message "Hang on, [PETPET] looks somehow different..." after your Petpet climbs out of the hole. However, nothing actually happens to your Petpet; it's just TNT teasing!
Item Prizes
Occasionally, your petpet will pop back out of the Symol Hole with an item in hand! All of these are exclusive to the Symol Hole. You can also view this list in our Item Database.
