Greetings! Is that the jingle of Santa's bells I hear? Its time to hang up your stocking and decorate the tree - the Winter Event is here with all its prizes and festive cheer!


Ami


Our Quest Givers, Ami and Isabella, once again need your help to decorate Mistletown for the festive season. Help them out, listen to Ami's stories and have fun unwrapping gifts and winning some magical prizes!

How can I participate in the Winter Event?

Winter Questline

The Winter Event is back in 2023 and we have some quests ready for you to brave the cold! During the event you will come across 70 quests: 40 rush quests will be available immediately, and then a new daily quest every single day of the event.

Event Mechanics​

Our Winter Event shuffle board is back again for you to enjoy! Like last year you start the festive fun by gathering Stars Winter event icon star currency.png from the event questline, as well as special daily quests and in incidents hidden around your city.

Win23GAME.png


When you have collected enough Stars Winter event icon star currency.png and you want to start the merrymaking, just shuffle the stack of Mystery Presents and use 10 Stars to open one of them.
In addition, each time you open a Mystery Present, you will receive a Match Stick, which can be used to gain progress toward the Grand Prize! Use a Match Stick to light Candles inside 1 or 2 town houses. Once all 20 houses are lit, the town's Winter Tree will light up and you'll obtain the Special Grand Prize!

In addition to regular gifts, there’s also a chance you might stumble upon a special tile when you open a present. These are:

Winter icon shuffle.png

Shuffle

Shuffle will of course shuffle the board for you, and it will also give you 10 Stars. When combined with "Double Payout", the stars are doubled, but the tiles are only shuffled once.
Winter icon double.png

Double Payout

Double Payout will double the reward from the next present you open. If you do not open any presents during that day, then the double payout will transfer to the next day when you open a present.
Winter icon show.png

Show 2

Show 2 will reveal to you the contents of two presents on the board, and it will also give you a small amount of Stars. When combined with "Double Payout", the stars are doubled, but only two tiles are revealed.


Hidden among the gifts on the shuffle board is the Daily Special. If you're lucky enough to win the Daily Special or find the "Shuffle", you'll also win an Elf for the Elves' Workshop.
You can also win keys Reward icon winter daily key.png from the shuffle board by opening Gifts. These keys allow you to open a Calender doors, so make sure to try and win a key every day to unlock the entire Calendar!

Elves' Workshop

There would be no Winter Event 2023 without an Elf's Workshop! You once again have the opportunity to choose one of two gifts to add to a bonus gift pile which you can then unlock with diamonds. Or if you just can't choose, you can pay the diamond cost to add both of them, or even switch the gift options available to choose from!

WIN23ELF2.png


Every time you win the Daily Special or find a special tile, you'll also win an Elf for the Elves' Workshop. Each time you win an Elf you will have the opportunity to choose one of two gifts to add to a bonus gift pile.
Don't miss out, because among the bonus gifts are fantastic buildings, such as the Upgrades Kits for the Elfie's Cream & Nog Shop Reward icon silver upgrade kit WIN23C-79bb3d56a.png and the Elfie's Cream & Nog Emporium Reward icon golden upgrade kit WIN23C-0588fcfb4.png, the Epic Winter 2023 Selction Kit Reward icon selection kit epic WIN23-c40edca26.png and many more beautiful gifts!

Note: You can open the Elves' Blessings at all times by paying diamonds, but remember: the bigger the pile the better deal you get!

WIN23Gifts.png


Winter Event Calendar

The Winter Calendar is returning too, offering a new door to unlock every day, each holding a prize. Unlock all doors in the Calendar to win some bonus prizes! Those include the Santa's Spectacular Showtime, as well as Forge Plus for a duration of 7 days!

WIN23CALENDER.png


New doors will unlock each day of the Winter Event 2023, so make sure to come back every day to find the keys!

If you are very lucky and win more than one key on the same day on the suffle board Reward icon winter daily key.png, you will earn a Master Key Part Reward icon winter master key parts.png and 10 stars Winter event icon star currency.png instead, which will allow you to assemble additional Keys Reward icon winter master key.png to unlock any Calendar days you miss (5 Key Parts required to make a Master Key). You can also win Master Key Parts in the Daily Challenges, or purchase them with diamonds.

Please note: If your Daily Key is doubled, you will get a Daily Key and a Master Key Part together with 10 Stars!
