[Event] Blast: Fall



Blast: Fall



Fall arrived and brought a new edition of the Blast event! Destroy blocks in a grid to win incredible rewards!


Note:

There will be 2 different events, each lasting 12 days. The next event will start 22 hours after this one ends.
The divine in the Tyche’s Crown is the same for both events and his fragments can be obtained for the whole duration - 4 weeks!



How to play?


Click to display
Destroy them by clicking on a group of at least 2 blocks of the same color. When you destroy blocks, your meter fills up. At the end of the level, you get a chest whose value depends on the number of blocks you destroyed.



Special Blocks

Click to display
You can find the following special blocks:

Glass blocks


Destroy adjacent block groups twice to destroy them and to get additional points.


Stone blocks


Get them to fall to the bottom of the grid to destroy them and to get additional points.


Rockets


Create them by destroying at least 8 blocks of the same color at once. Click on them to destroy all the blocks in the same column or in the same line.


Explosion


Use the Explosion to destroy all the blocks on the grid and get 400 points. You get 2 free Explosions for logging in 5 days in a row. You can also buy one Explosion for 35 Passes.


Chests

Click to display
Each time you destroy blocks on the grid, points are added to the chest gauge. The more blocks you destroy at once, the more points you get.


When there are no moves left, the grid ends, and at that moment, you will receive:

A chest that will be added to one of your available slots. The rarity of the chest depends on how filled the chest gauge is.

A cup that will fill your general gauge.


At the beginning, you have one slot available. You need to wait to unlock the other two slots or you can pay if you want to unlock them right away.

If all the slots are occupied, you cannot play on the grid anymore until you open one of the chests in a slot to free it up.

To open the chest you can:

Wait until the end of the timer.

Use boosters, and reduce the timer for some hours.

Pay for the Master Key, and reduce the timer to 0 for all the chests in the slots.

The chests that are in your slots will automatically be opened at the end of the event.


Boosters

Click to display
Use boosters to open your chests faster!

You can get boosters:

By buying them with Passes.

Every day when you log in, with a fidelity bonus if you come 5 days in-a-row.



Jackpots



Heracles’ Horseshoe


When you reach level 3 on your gauge, you can win the new Heracles’ Horseshoe Cross Country.




Liana


Fill the 5 levels of your gauge to get Liana, the Plant Kingdom Divine.



New divine: Oyster

Mushroom


Oyster Mushroom is the first divine of our New Divine Series: the Mushroom horses!
You can get fragments for this divine in the Tyche’s Crown.

next event has packets of 30 for 50 tokens (which then double...), so you have to spend all of the 750 tokens on Packets.


But price is the same default smiley (lol)

I seriously wish they would FINISH a series first, before even thinking about releasing a new (hideous) series of divines....
If HQ needs new artists, there are several amazing artists on the game - they deserve a payment for their artwork (and not just a few passes for they GA / HR submission)

I am really not impressed about the timer for the third slot. At 9 days, that is 75% of the event. It just doesn't make sense that free players have to wait so long

I'm shocked!

Promo is giving temu minigame energy with the gacha based prizing system ngl

That aside, does anyone know if it’s possible to finish without spending passes? Someone from the last event mentioned that events are designed so we can finish.

But my understanding of the current event is that you open chests to fill your gauge. And you’re also timelocked bc you can at maximum open one extra bronze tier chest per day or one extra gold tier chest per nine days if you’re f2p. And the gauge won’t fill quickly enough even for gold tier chests. So it feels pretty impossible unless I’m missing something (?)

They should hire nash or big fish to do their divines. I like pop art better than oyster horse but dont totally dislike it either. I think we get fragments for four weeks with oyster mushroom. Might not get second liana but theres a divine at the end if i did buy passesdefault smiley (l)default smiley :)default smiley (7)

Will we get the same amount of Heracles horseshoes to give our horses? By this I mean four. And I also know that they are not stackable.

Depends on which one. The prize page shows you get 4 of the cross-country horseshoe, but just 1 of the gallop horseshoe. Not counting if you play through enough chests to get them multiple times, of course.

Since my brain is like a sieve I hope someone kind can help me.
Does one chest equal one point towards leveling up regardless of the rarity of the chest?
Does each type of chest take the same time until it unlocks?

My strategy is going for only wooden chests because all the chests are just 1 point towards leveling up. They take the less time to open until getting the plant divine.

be very careful how you use your boosts on this promo. 2 things to consider.
1. lets say when you get new boosts when you log in and one of your chests needs 4h20m to open. don't use 2 chests on it if you can wait. use one and wait 20 minutes then open it.
2. also if you use chests to just reduce the time but not automatically open make sure when it's going to be able to be opened you can open near that time. Like don't waste a booster that's going to make your chest open in the middle of the night.

Is it possible to get the plant divine without spending passes if you only get wooden chests?
Sorry I'm way too exhausted to try and do the math.

I kind of wish the divines for this one were not so enticing; it's hard to save up passes for black friday when the events are begging for me to spend

Each time these events are rolled out they are more stingy than the previous time.

I know passes must be bought to keep the game functioning, but to revise each event so it's impossible to complete without an enormous amount of money spent on passes is disheartening for ALL players.

Shortening the event makes no sense. I'm not happy with it, I'll say that flat out. All it does it mean the grand prizes from here on out are locked behind a paywall forever, and none of them are worth spending money on. default smiley (n)

So it looks like I'm never getting a final prize again, cause I'm NOT spending for them. I swear every event they release gets me closer to my final straw where I just stop playing them, not that they care about player happiness, they haven't for years.

But it's like this: If they don't care, why should I?

No. The event used to require the entire time frame to complete for free, you can't get either Divine at all unless you spend passes.

yep. and it's even stingier than they say it's NOT 14 days. it's 12 days and 2 hours.

Also why are they hyping up the ugly Mushroom horse like it's some kind of big generous gesture from them to give us an extra week to get it when everyone can tell they cut the fragment amount and there's absolutely no discount, it costs the same as every other Divine they release.

I swear they think we're stupid. default smiley (d) Honestly, it's just insulting.
