Hey there, Our little Easter event will kick off again and be available for 7 days :D
Due to issues that mainly concerned fair play, we had a feedback session after last years event with the goal of improving the next round (this year). Inspired by this feedback, some changes where made that I’d like to share with you beforehand:
Event Scores I: Now, every user who has taken at least one step since the last egg receives 3 points and 3 cookies. However, there are also two ways to earn bonus points: 2 bonus points go to the user who has taken the most steps for the current route. Another bonus point goes to the user who ultimately collects the egg.
Event Scores II: For this event, points are stored locally per server. For the leaderboard, your best score counts instead of the total points. So you could have a score of 16 on one server and 18 on another. The leaderboard will then count the 18 points as your global score.
Solo Player: This year, it’s also possible for a single user to take multiple steps without having to take turns... however, there is a significantly longer cooldown for this to keep the focus on teamwork - nevertheless, this may be useful if everyone else is already asleep.
Mystery Fields: In addition to the 3 eggs in the maze, there are now also 2 Mystery Fields that can be optionally activated when the rabbit is at the correct position. If a Mystery Field is activated, one of 4 possible actions is selected at random. 3 of the actions are positive, and one is slightly negative. You can find out what the actions are in the event itself ;)
