Events are special activities hosted by game admins or by players in rented rooms and owned properties.
Admin events can occur dynamically, often with short notice. When a surprise event begins, a limited-time portal typically opens in the Mainland to transport players directly to the event staging area.
Players can also advertise events at their own rooms and properties. These player-hosted events can appear on the Events board and be discovered through the Navigator.
Active and Upcoming Events
There are currently no active or scheduled recurring admin events. Keep an eye on server announcements for surprise event portals opening in the Mainland.
Player-hosted event listings may appear on the Events board and in the Navigator as owners create and host them.
Player-Hosted Events
Players can host an event at:
- A rented room
- A player-owned property
To host a player event:
- Create or enter a room or owned property.
- Open the event or property listing controls.
- Add the location to the Events board.
- Configure the event information.
- Host the event at the selected location.
Player-hosted locations can be discovered through the Events board and the Navigator. Other players can use the listing to find the room or property and enter the event.
Owned properties can also appear in the Navigator's Mine tab. A property shows a light-on indicator in the Rooms list while its owner is inside.
Finding Events
Players can find events through several systems:
| Discovery method | Function |
|---|---|
| Server announcements | Announces surprise admin events and limited-time activities. |
| Mainland portals | Transports players to the staging area for certain admin events. |
| Events board | Lists player-hosted events and event locations. |
| Navigator | Helps players find and enter event rooms and properties across the fleet. |
The Navigator's room list is shared across every server. Entering an event room functions as a single hop, regardless of which server hosts it.
The Navigator is browse-only while a player is in a wilderness realm. Players cannot teleport out of an active fight or unsafe wilderness area.
Past and Surprise Events
Falling Furni
Falling Furni is a competitive elimination mini-game hosted by admins. It features high-stakes rounds where players must rely on quick positioning to survive and claim exclusive prizes.
Mechanics
- Entry: When the event is announced, a portal opens in the Mainland leading to an open room. Players must wait in a line to enter the main play area.
- Gameplay: Matches generally feature 20 to 30 players. During the round, chairs suddenly appear in the arena. Players must quickly sit in a chair to secure their safety.
- Elimination: Once all available chairs are occupied, the two players left standing without a chair are eliminated from the game.
- The Standoff: When the player count is reduced to the final 2–3 contestants, a "standoff" begins. Players are instructed to stand exactly 1 tile apart, or form a triangle with a single tile in the center. The first player to successfully sit in the final chair wins the game.
Shovel Event
Shovel Event is a server-wide treasure hunt hosted by admins. When the event starts, every player is given a Shovel and must dig around the world to find a hidden prize buried somewhere on the map.
Mechanics
- Entry: No entry required — all players automatically receive a Shovel when the event is announced.
- Gameplay: Dig tiles across the world to locate the hidden prize. Tiles highlight red if the prize is not buried there, and green if you find it.
- Reward: The prize is a varying amount of Gold.
Wishing Well
The Wishing Well is a limited charity event hosted on the Mainland. Players donate real USD, converted to SOL through donate.gg, to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital.
Donations earn raffle entries for exclusive cosmetics, including Golden Halo, Golden Crown, and Golden Slippers, as well as a permanent Donor profile badge.
See Wishing Well for full details.
