Event Information

"The Settlers" brand is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year. To celebrate this together, We have prepared a little something for you

EVENT SUMMARY

Gather as many balloons as you can and donate them to bring victory to your server! This will be the main goal during this Event. You will have the following ways of gathering balloons:

• a. Loot from adventures
• b. Rewards from quests (special daily quests and special quest chains)
• c. Converting resources to balloons in your provision house
• d. Playing the game -> Trading, constructing buildings, upgrading buildings, treasure hunts, buffs and many more.

While you play the game and perform certain actions (from point d), the resources gathered will be sent regularly via mail, so don't forget to check and accept them. Once you have gathered some balloons, you can donate them from your storage. They will be counted for your server as soon as they are taken out of your storage.

The first four days of the event will be phase 1. Each server has to reach a certain amount of gathered balloons during this time. The faster the server reaches the amount of balloons, the more rewards the players will get.

After phase 1 and before the competition starts (phase 2), the donate button will be blocked. When it gets activated again, it means collecting all the balloons you can. For the competition itself some servers will be grouped in pools so that everyone has the chance to win.

There are certain balloon goals (100%, 150% and 200% on the list), which will give the server additional rewards.

The Event will last four weeks. After this period, everyone on the servers who has reached the particular percentage will get a reward. Additional rewards will be given to the servers which:
- reach 200% first
- gather the most balloons overall


There will be two special quest chains during the Event. The first one starts at level 1 and briefly explains the main mechanics. The second quest chain starts at level 26, as son as the first quest chain is finished. It features two special military adventures, with an individual story and tasks.

Furthermore, there will be special daily quests giving each player a retro click adventure, including original Settlers 2 graphics. By the way, the graphics aren't the only retro part. Take a listen while playing...

Besides the Settlers 2 Headquarters, you will be able to obtain Medipacks, Hired troops, cool retro skins for some of your buildings, special adventures from the second quest chain, and gems.
