'''Help defeat the Frost King!'''
 
 
 
Travel to the Great Winter Taiga, storm the Ice Fortress, and prevent eternal winter!
 
  
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
==== The Frost King Cometh! ====
 
The King's research expedition into the Great Winter Taiga has returned with unsettling news: the construction of jagged ice and snow is in fact a massive Ice Fortress! A sinister and foreboding chill can be felt emanating from the structure and most concerning of all, its chilling effect is slowly creeping further and further south. Trees are frosting over, water is flash freezing, and the researchers' entire supply of Hot Cocoa has frozen solid!
 
  
From behind a massive shield of Reinforced Ice, a growling cackle echos from the belly of the Frost King who has proclaimed that soon all of Gnawnia will be made part of his frozen domain. Hunters must find a way to smash through this Ice Shield, confront the Frost King, and stop his plan to freeze of all Gnawnia forever!
+
'''The King's Vault is Open!'''
  
==== Let the Great Winter Hunt Begin! ====
+
Open prize packs and gain access to the King's Vault filled with goodies!
The Festive Comet has crashed into Gnawnia signalling the start of the Great Winter Hunt! With hunters needed at the Great Winter Taiga, the King has organized an ingenious plan to bring an abundance of the comet's snow to the taiga to help thwart the Frost King. At this very moment, a fleet of supply ships are ferrying mounds of unprocessed snow from the Harbour to a newly constructed Golem Workshop as part of a master plan to utilize Winter Hunt Snow Golems to assault the Ice Fortress.
 
  
At the Golem Workshop, a trio of droids are standing ready to operate deep-freeze forges to produce golem parts. Alas, all the droids need is a source of power and what better source than the delicious, clean, and efficient Compressed Cinnamon? Collect Compressed Cinnamon from the nearby Cinnamon Hill to power the forges so that the droids can manufacture more golem parts than ever before! Then, send your golems out on expeditions to collect an extremely dense and powerful new item known as a Hailstone which will make the perfect ammunition to blast through the Frost King's Ice Shield.
 
  
==== Golem Exploration ====
+
==== The King's Giveaway has BEGUN! ====
 +
The gilded gates protecting the King's Royal Treasure Vault have been opened and the King's Giveaway has begun!
  
Hunters are better equipped than ever to construct, upgrade, and utilize Snow Golems! Use Pecan Pecorino or Glazed Pecan Pecorino '''anywhere''' in the Great Winter Taiga to collect Golem Parts as loot drops. Additionally, once you have a stash of Compressed Cinnamon you can power the forges at the Golem Workshop to produce additional heads, torsos, and limbs. Once you have a head, torso, and four limbs you can construct a golem and send it out on a loot collection expedition!
+
From now until '''July 2''', the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun mice will be encountered more frequently everywhere in the Kingdom!
  
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
+
During the giveaway, each time you attract a mouse, you'll have a chance to attract a prize mouse as a '''bonus hunt''' which does not consume any cheese or charms and will appear as an additional hunt in your Hunter's Journal.
<div style="font-size: 115%>Send out golems to collect area-specific loot!</div></div>
 
  
After 25 hunts your golems will return with a variety of loot from the location you sent them to. Additionally, no matter where you send a golem it will return with Reinforced Ice Shards which can be used to upgrade its loot collecting abilities. All golems also return with Hailstones which you can utilize to smash the shield at the Ice Fortress. The most renowned ballistics experts from Fort Rox have built and installed three powerful cannons that are capable firing Hailstones at the Ice Shield. Enable one, two, or all three cannons and start firing Hailstones until the Ice Shield shatters!

+
==== King's Prize Keys and The Vault ====
<div style="font-size: 115%>Golems return with Hailstones which you can use to destroy the Ice Shield!</div></div>
 
  
All General Stores throughout the Great Winter Taiga are selling Festive Jingle Bells and Magical Holiday Hats. Festive Jingle Bells can be used to instantly return a golem and Magical Holiday Hats will add 3 especially valuable items to any golem's loot haul!
+
The greedy prize mice have snatched up '''ALL''' the keys this year! Only prize mice will drop King's Prize Keys but they will always drop at least one! Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Gold, Regal Charms, King's Credits and SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+!
  
{| style="width: 100%; border-spacing: 1em"
+
Once you've opened 10 Mystery Prize Packs, the King will allow you to peek into the vault and select one of three randomly offered, highly valuable prizes! Once a prize has been selected from the vault, the door will slam shut and the prizes will reset. You may visit the vault every time you open 10 prize packs!

But wait... there must be some magic in that cozy-looking scarf around the Frost King's neck! After destroying the Ice Shield, you'll confront the Frost King who drops his Magical Holiday Scarf as loot. Dress one of your golems with this enchanted scarf and it will return with extraordinary treasure!

==== Uncork Festive Spirit ====
+
==== Prized Items ====
When all the warm and fuzzy feelings from the holiday season are condensed and coalesced by a crisp north wind it produces this truly miraculous vapour that is believed to be the physical manifestation of joy itself.
+
Capturing a Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller Mouse will reward you with King's Credits which you can spend at the King's Arms or King's Cart for equipment to help you in a wide range of hunting endeavours.
  
This powerful resource can be uncorked to provide a wide variety of benefits while hunting within the Great Winter Taiga, such as:
+
Capturing a Mobster Mouse will reward you with SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ in quantities of 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, or even 1,000!
  
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
+
Considered some of the most rare items in the Kingdom are the Mystery Pot of Gold and Mystery Satchel of Gold dropped by the extremely rare and elusive '''Leprechaun Mouse'''. Should you have the extraordinary luck of not only encountering but also capturing a Leprechaun Mouse it will most often drop a Mystery Satchel of Gold containing a generous quantity of Gold along with SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and charms. On more rare occasions, the Leprechaun will drop a Mystery Pot of Gold which contains even more SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and the chance of a cash prize!
<div style="font-size: 115%>+1 Compressed Cinnamon anytime a mouse drops it!<br>+1 progress to all active forges in the Golem Workshop!<br>+1 shield damage if '''any''' cannon is fired (for a possible max of four)<br>Conjures 1 Throwable Snowball each and every hunt!<br>+1 loot for a wide variety of festive-themed loot drops at the Taiga!</div></div>
 
  
You can obtain Festive Spirit by hunting with standard cheese, completing Naughty Maps, opening doors on your Advent Calendar, and by purchasing it from the Premium Shop.

==== Wintery Charms of the Past ====
 
The Snowflake and Snow Golem Architect mice no longer require any sort of special charm to encounter! The wide open space of the Great Winter Taiga doesn't have nearly as many places for these mice to hide. However, they do still have somewhat discriminating taste when it comes to cheese.
 
  
<div style="text-align: center; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">

==== Rainbow Treasure Maps ====
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Snowflake mice are attracted to Pecan and Glazed Pecan Pecorino'''<br>'''Snow Golem Architect mice are attracted to Pecan and Glazed Pecan Pecorino in the Workshop'''<br>Special charms are no longer required to attract these mice</div></div>
 
  
Should you have any Winter Charms or Let It Snow Charms from previous Great Winter Hunts, you can use your Hunter's Hammer to magically smash them into Pecan Pecorino and Glazed Pecan Pecorino, respectively.
+
Inside the King's Vault, hunters may have the option to select a Rainbow Scroll Case as one possible reward. This bright and colourful case contains a lengthy treasure map, which usually allows for six hunters to participate. However, hunters can upgrade their Rainbow Scroll Cases into a PARTY SIZE version by visiting the King's Arms or King's Cart. The exchange costs a regular Rainbow Scroll Case, 1 Rare Map Dust, and 50 Magic Essence. This jumbo scroll contains the same massive map, but allows for '''10 hunters''' to participate!
  
==== Other Winter Festivities ====
+
Whether you take on a regular or party size map they'll both lead to the same Rainbow Treasure Chest rewarding Gold, Points, Ancient Charms, Rainbow Charms, King's Credits, and more!
While touring the Great Winter Taiga there's lots of festive fun to explore!
 
  
<div style="text-align: left; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
+
Not interested in completing such a huge map? Rainbow Treasure Maps can be completed at any time by claiming a consolation prize for a portion of the Points, Gold, and Ancient Charms based on the number of mice captured.
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Snowball Showdown'''<br>It's time to showdown once again as everyone's favourite snowball fight is back!

You and your map mates will have to track down a variety of event mice using both standard cheese and Pecan Pecorino cheese. These are great when you're first getting started to bolster your stash of Pecan Pecorino.<br>'''Naughty Lists''' are more difficult but also more rewarding! To complete these maps you'll need to capture the Frost King himself meaning you'll need an ample supply of Hailstones at your disposal.

The King's Giveaway!

18 June 2024

The King's Vault is Open!

Open prize packs and gain access to the King's Vault filled with goodies!


The King's Giveaway has BEGUN!

The gilded gates protecting the King's Royal Treasure Vault have been opened and the King's Giveaway has begun!

From now until July 2, the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun mice will be encountered more frequently everywhere in the Kingdom!

During the giveaway, each time you attract a mouse, you'll have a chance to attract a prize mouse as a bonus hunt which does not consume any cheese or charms and will appear as an additional hunt in your Hunter's Journal.

Capture these rare and valuable mice for Prize Keys and a chance to win SUPER|brie+, King's Credits, and more!

King's Prize Keys and The Vault

The greedy prize mice have snatched up ALL the keys this year! Only prize mice will drop King's Prize Keys but they will always drop at least one! Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Gold, Regal Charms, King's Credits and SUPER|brie+!

Once you've opened 10 Mystery Prize Packs, the King will allow you to peek into the vault and select one of three randomly offered, highly valuable prizes! Once a prize has been selected from the vault, the door will slam shut and the prizes will reset. You may visit the vault every time you open 10 prize packs!

The King's Vault will close on July 9.

Once the giveaway ends, any King's Prize Keys in your inventory will be removed, so make sure to use them up!


Prized Items

Capturing a Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller Mouse will reward you with King's Credits which you can spend at the King's Arms or King's Cart for equipment to help you in a wide range of hunting endeavours.

Capturing a Mobster Mouse will reward you with SUPER|brie+ in quantities of 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, or even 1,000!

Considered some of the most rare items in the Kingdom are the Mystery Pot of Gold and Mystery Satchel of Gold dropped by the extremely rare and elusive Leprechaun Mouse. Should you have the extraordinary luck of not only encountering but also capturing a Leprechaun Mouse it will most often drop a Mystery Satchel of Gold containing a generous quantity of Gold along with SUPER|brie+ and charms. On more rare occasions, the Leprechaun will drop a Mystery Pot of Gold which contains even more SUPER|brie+ and the chance of a cash prize!


Regal Codex

Unlock the new Regal Codex by hunting with any Regal Charm to find Regal Codex Pages as loot drops. Mice drop these pages both during and after the giveaway! The pages can then be turned in at the King's Arms for the Codex.

The codex allows you a chance to upgrade your existing Regal Charm into the next tiered version!
The Regal Codex will be a permanent addition to the King's Cart.

This means that you can obtain it even after the King's Giveaway ends!


King's Cart Updates

The following items have been added to the King's Cart:

Papyrus Seed
Cost: 1x King's Credit
Ingenuity Grub
Cost: 1x King's Credit
Unstable Charm
Cost: 2x King's Credit
Compass Magnet
Cost: 20x King's Credit
Regal Chrome Celestial Dissonance Skin
Cost: 300x King's Credit
Regal Codex
Cost: 100x Regal Codex Page


Rainbow Treasure Maps

Inside the King's Vault, hunters may have the option to select a Rainbow Scroll Case as one possible reward. This bright and colourful case contains a lengthy treasure map, which usually allows for six hunters to participate. However, hunters can upgrade their Rainbow Scroll Cases into a PARTY SIZE version by visiting the King's Arms or King's Cart. The exchange costs a regular Rainbow Scroll Case, 1 Rare Map Dust, and 50 Magic Essence. This jumbo scroll contains the same massive map, but allows for 10 hunters to participate!

Whether you take on a regular or party size map they'll both lead to the same Rainbow Treasure Chest rewarding Gold, Points, Ancient Charms, Rainbow Charms, King's Credits, and more!

Not interested in completing such a huge map? Rainbow Treasure Maps can be completed at any time by claiming a consolation prize for a portion of the Points, Gold, and Ancient Charms based on the number of mice captured.


Royal Deals

To celebrate the King's Giveaway, the King is offering royal deals on the most popular cheese in the Kingdom: SUPER|brie+!

Until the end of the giveaway, some of the most popular bundles of SUPER|brie+ are on sale with savings ranging from 10% all the way to 25% off.
