The Great Winter Hunt 2023 event takes place in Great Winter Taiga region, with 3 hunting locations: Cinnamon Hill, Golem Workshop, and Ice Fortress.
This region requires the rank of Recruit to access. It is only available during the event.
In this location, the Hunter can turn Compressed Cinnamon into Golem Parts using the Workshop.
Gameplay Mechanics
Snow Golem
During the event, the Snow Golem is in effect in all 3 locations in this region.
The details on this mechanic can be found here.
Workshop
In this location, a Workshop mechanic is in effect:
- There are 3 forges: Head Forge, Torso Forge, and Limb Forge. Each forge can be either Off or On.
- Each forge with On state makes progress with each hunt.
- Each forge consumes 1 Compressed Cinnamon per hunt.
- Each hunt makes 1 unit of progress. This can be boosted to 2 units per hunt by using Festive Spirit.
- When a certain progress is made, the forges generate Golem Parts:
- At 12 units, Head Forge produces 1 Snow Golem Head.
- At 12 units, Torso Forge produces 1 Snow Golem Torso.
- At 6 units, Limb Forge produces 1 Snow Golem Limb.

- Choose any location in the Kingdom that you've already unlocked and send your Golem there to collect loot for you.
Cinnamon Hill
Hunt mice with Pecan Pecorino or Glazed Pecan Pecorino cheese to collect Compressed Cinnamon.
Take this Compressed Cinnamon to the Golem Workshop to fuel the Golem Part Forges.
Golem Workshop
Turn on a Golem Part Forge to begin manufacturing its associated Golem part.
Each active Forge will consume one Compressed Cinnamon and make one unit of progress per hunt.
When a Forge completes, it automatically produces a Golem part!
Ice Fortress
Turn on a cannon to start firing Hailstones at the Ice Shield while you hunt.
Per hunt, each active cannon will consume one Hailstone, deal one unit of damage to the shield, and cause the mice to drop its associated item.
Once the shield reaches zero, you will encounter the Frost King until he is caught.
Catching the Frost King will reward you with a Magical Holiday Scarf and will reset the shield's health.

Hunting Strategy
Hunting Tips by Larry
Have you ever wanted to see how Snow Golem parts are made? Then you've come to the right place!
These hard-working droids were custom-built to manufacture the parts you need to build your Snow Golems and let me tell you, they are very good at their job!
The only problem is that their forges require a clean, stable, and efficient power source in order to function and that's where they need your help.
Collect that sweet-smelling Compressed Cinnamon from Cinnamon Hill and bring it back here to help these droids get to work.
Just switch on whichever forges you want and as long as you've got the Compressed Cinnamon to power them then these miraculous machines will start producing the parts you need!
