'''Celebrate the new Year of the Snake and earn DOUBLE or TRIPLE loot!'''
Love is in the air until February 17!
 
 
 
<blockquote>
 
 
 
 
 
==== Love is in the Air! ====
 
All throughout Gnawnia, hunters and mice alike are cozying up to one another and even Larry has been seen carving a heart into the Great Gnarled Tree.
 
 
 
The outburst of affection has caused some mice to pair off, possibly explaining the near endless population of mice. During this outburst of affection, you may find yourself catching two mice at the same time!
 
 
 
While hunting anywhere in the Kingdom, you can encounter a mouse that has paired off with a Valentine's Event Mouse. Should this occur, you'll capture '''both mice with a single piece of cheese!''' Keep an eye on your Hunter's Journal for an especially lovely looking entry when this occurs.
 
 
 
==== Lovely Loot Opportunities ====
 
 
 
When capturing a Valentine's Event Mouse that has paired off with another, you'll find a variety of attractive loot items including Valentine Charms, Lucky Valentine Charms, King's Credits, Ultimate Luck Charms, collectibles, and more!
 
 
 
==== Attractive Treasure Maps ====
 
 
 
Visit any Cartographer throughout the Kingdom to pick up a Valentine's Matchmaker Scroll Case to search out treasure hidden by the Valentine's event mice!
 
 
 
Completing the map will reveal the location of a Valentine's Matchmaker Treasure Chest containing Points, Gold, Valentine Charms, Lucky Valentine Charms, King's Credits, and Ancient Charms. With some luck you may also find one of eight unique tradable trap skins!
 
 
 
With Valentine's mice encountered '''anywhere''' in the Kingdom, these maps are a great opportunity to work with fellow hunters of any rank!
 
 
 
==== Sweet Gift Boxes and More ====
 
The King has put together a few appropriate gifts to show affection to friendly hunters, or a sweet treat for yourself!
 
 
 
*'''15 Valentine Charms'''
 
:Valentines Charms!
 
 
 
*'''50 Lucky Valentine Charms'''
 
:Luck AND Attraction!

Happy Lunar New Year

29 January 2025

Celebrate the new Year of the Snake and earn DOUBLE or TRIPLE loot!

Raise your Lantern to celebrate the Year of the Snake!

Year of the Snake

The Year of the Snake is upon us and it's time to kick off the celebration with heaps of luck and loot! The Lunar Lantern has returned along with Lunar New Year mice at thirteen locations across Gnawnia!

Claim the Snake Lunar Lantern to light Lunar Lantern Candles and join the celebration to earn double or triple loot anywhere in the Kingdom!

How to Celebrate

Stockpile Locations

Travel to any one of these stockpile locations. You can refer to the Lunar New Year Heads-Up Display to view this list along with a travel button to take you to a specific location immediately. This year, the Bountiful Beanstalk has been added as a new stockpile location!

Town of Gnawnia Laboratory Great Gnarled Tree Dojo
S.S Huntington IV Claw Shot City Gnawnia Rift Fungal Cavern
Moussu Picchu Queso River Islands' Launch Pad Foreword Farm
Bountiful Beanstalk Climb
Gather Dumpling Cheese

At stockpile locations, you can gather Dumpling Cheese by hunting as you normally would in that location. The mice in stockpile locations have a chance of dropping Dumpling Cheese.

Gather Lantern Candles from Lunar Event Mice

Gather Lunar Lantern candles from any of the event mice while hunting with Dumpling Cheese at Stockpile Locations. If you hunt with Nian Gao'da cheese you will also find some of the coveted Red Lunar Lantern Candles!

Light the Candles and soar into prosperity!

With the Snake Lantern you claimed, you can begin lighting these candles and reaping rewards!


When your lantern is lit with Lunar Lantern Candles, you will find DOUBLE loot from mice anywhere in the Kingdom! If you're lighting Red Lunar Lantern Candles you'll find TRIPLE loot!


The amazing power of the lantern and candles doesn't end there. While you hunt with your lantern lit, it will rise into the air in search of more rewards. Each hunt with a Lunar Lantern candle lit will raise your lantern by one foot and each hunt with a Red Lunar Lantern candle lit will raise it by two feet!


Every ten feet that your lantern ascends, you'll receive a +1 Luck bonus to your trap that will apply whenever the candles are burning. The bonus is cumulative so the higher you go, the more luck you'll get!


Every thirty feet that your lantern ascends, you'll receive an extra reward in addition to the +1 Luck! Be sure to check out the Heads-Up Display to get a glimpse of all the valuable items that await you along the reward track!


Lunar New Year Items

The various shops at stockpile locations stock Lunar New Year themed items that can be purchased after the Lunar New Year adventure is completed. Keep an eye out for some unique and festive airship parts, trap skins, and more!

The Lantern Lighter Scroll Case is also returning to Cartographers at stockpile locations, where you can work together with friends to complete the treasure map.


The Lunar New Year event will end on February 11, 2025

As of February 11, you will no longer be able to collect Dumpling cheese or Lunar Lantern Candles at stockpile locations.


You will no longer be able to light any Lunar Lantern candles and therefore won't receive the Lantern luck bonus, loot bonus, or be able to make any more progress on the reward track.


You will still be able to claim any unclaimed track rewards and purchase Lunar New Year items at stockpile location shops until February 18.

Celebration Supplies

The King has expanded his collection of offerings with a variety of bountiful bundles to help you raise your lantern to new heights!

All candles are sold in packs that can be given to friends or bought and sold on the Marketplace. Grab them now to kick-start your celebration!
