Card Promo - Nordic Cards - Complete to win Heimdall (shown below)

Creation Space


We will introduce a few changes in the Creation space, for creators but also voters and collectors. All details are in the changelog.

Sending creations to the Black Pearl: players are now limited to 10 creations/month

It is now possible to skip votes during the voting phase up to 3 times/day

In the Creations directory, a “Uses” column has been added. It shows the total number of times a creation was used. It also shows the limit for limited creations. (The Number of items column => still shows the number of living horses with this creation)




Test instructions for testers:


Check if you can only upload 10 creations (they can use dummy creations for that), check if the votes work properly, check if the directory is working as planned.

Schedule


- 1st > 3rd April > Sending creations
- 4th April > Voting
- 5th > Creations selection (nothing to do for the players)
- 6th April > Creations go online for VIPs
- 7th April > Creations go online for everyone on the preprod

It's possible that these phases may overlap slightly. For instance, it may still be possible to enter new creations during voting, etc.

If i'm thinking right, his gift was an Ow's Helios Ray, correct?

Does anyone know about how many passes it will take to complete the Icelandic Hike?

Yeah, when you get to 510 points then Heimdell will give you an Ow's Helios Ray

Icelandic Hike?

Prizes



That "checkpoint" sign indicates the 3 gifts across the 3 squares. You can only get the gift whose square you step on (not land on like the Game Board events we have previously). I chose to use the card with the arrow x3. It let me move 3 squares forward, and because I crossed over the square with the Pandora's Box, that is the gift I won

New Divine: Týr

He belongs to the Nordic divines.

His gift is: a Themis’ Scale

Icelandic Hike

We’re taking you on a big ride through Iceland with a brand new contest, where you might encounter puffins and other obstacles….
Inspired by a French card game, the principle is to move forward and avoid obstacles by using cards to reach the final destination with the divine horse.





How it works


The player has a pawn on a board and has to move forward, collect gifts and pass obstacles using specific cards. The board has three lanes and you can always see 3 squares ahead. 1 square = 1 kilometer.


Cards


The player has a deck of 5 random cards. To use a card and make a move, the player needs to use a token. When they use one, a new random one is added to the deck. If the player is blocked, they can get a new set of cards. This refresh is free the 1st time of the day, then it costs 1 pass.

The game always highlights which card(s) can be used where you are (the others are greyed out).



Move forward, 1,2 or 3 kilometers. (Note: if there’s an obstacle after 1 kilometer but you only have x2 or x3 cards, you can still move forward 1 km but then you’ll be blocked and the additional km is/are lost).



Switch card: This card can be used to switch lanes and is especially useful if you don’t have the required counter card or are more interested in the gifts in another lane.
Note: you only move sideways and not forward with this card.



The fish counters the puffin (distracting it with food)
The drill-corn counters the rock (breaks it)
The flying horseshoe counters the obstacle (flies over it)
The naughty joker counters any obstacle and sends it to another player.
It is sent to a random player. You don’t know who, however, the player who receives it sees who they got it from.



In addition to obstacles, players can also encounter gifts and tokens on the board. They need to step on a square to collect the gift it has. (You don’t need to land directly on it, walking on it is enough, for when you use x2 or x3 cards).


If the player is blocked (can use no card) they can get a new set of cards. This refresh is free the 1st time of the day, then it costs 1 pass. The cards of the new set are random but the player should get at least one they can use in their next move.


Tokens

There are several ways of getting Tokens:


login (5/day)
horse rides (5/day)
participating in competitions
in the board
completing collections
buying them with passes (permanent offers not available on the preprod as usual, but there are also special offers)



Checkpoints

There are 10 checkpoints (that can also count as levels), with special gifts : one on each square. When passing a checkpoint, the player has the choice between 3 checkpoint gifts laid on a square of each lane. If they want more than one gift, they can use the switch card.
When passing the last checkpoint, you win Tyr, the jackpot.


Collections: There are collections of cards and you can get tokens for the contest when completing them.

Special offer: 8 tokens for 1 pass

I don't have a pass estimate for this event as I did a bunch of other experiments so I couldn't get a good price range. I always budget about 25-30 passes/diamond combos as that almost always gets me through, sometimes with passes to spare, which worked great for Memory as I spent less than half that.

However, on the few days I tracked my progress with free tokens I moved an average of about 23 paces based on my playing style. You get 10 free tokens a day, I think and can come across tokens on the board. We have to travel 850 to get the divine, so you can use that info to get a rough estimate (remember that special offer on preprod was 8 tokens for 1 pass). Estimates will vary depending on how players choose to use their cards, and if they run out of usable cards for the day some might choose to refresh their cards by paying a pass.

Please correct me if I'm wrong but we got 15 tokens per day right? Login = 5, rides = 5 and competitions = 5

With the tokens do you use one token per card played or what? And in the pictures I've seen there are really small spaces and then larger ones...are the small ones counted as one move or?

it's the Cards again, so there isn't much to report. There are only a few differences, those are noted in the posts.

You'll also see mention of new Chimera divines, but we still have no information as to what event they'll be released in.

Chemera Horses.

How much longer is testing going on for the Cards promo? aka how much longer until we know if the Chimera howrses are in the upcoming promo?

These are the prize cards. I'm still missing a couple bronze cards as I'm trying to see how far I can get without buying card packs. I should have looked at the list the joker gave me, but forgot. I think one of them wheat seeds though.

I was told the VIP diamond card can be activated more than once to rack up more VIP days, and if you're already a VIP it *does* add to your subscription.


Also, in regards to the joker card meter in the flash sales, the meter is triggered progressively this time. It did not reset back to 0% when I purchased the bronze joker, and I was able to skip buying the silver joker and buy the Gold. I went back and bought the silver joker today. You can buy as many or as few of the jokers as you wish without the meter resetting. However, I do not know what happens when you buy the diamond joker after reaching 100%. If the meter resets and you can progress again. It's probably theoretical anyway as the amount of days we have in the event compared to how many times you can buy cards from the flash sales probably means you''ll just barely manage to get the diamond, let alone doing it all over again.




I'm not sure when we'll hear more about the Chimeras. Possibly not until next preprod, maybe before then, we'll have to see.

What are the choices on the diamond joker? Can only see VIP...

in regards to the vip prize, will it then unlock the account to those that won't eligible and allow them to buy it?
