Anniversary Event 2024: Tips and tricks

Make use of new Boosters!
If you need more matches but lack Energy, spawn more Gems without spending Energy with new Gem Mines Booster. You also have a chance to get a colorless piece!

An abundance of small locked Gem Pieces on the board but nothing to match them with? Use Gem Pickaxe to break down a higher-level piece into two lower-level pieces. Note: any keys or key parts on the higher-level piece will be retained on both lower-level pieces. 
Need more versatility for your matches? Use Prismatic Essence! It converts all pieces of one color on the board to colorless. Colorless pieces can be merged with any color, but while they are colorless their keys can't be converted, so make sure to match any standalone colorless piece with a colored Gem. Make sure to use it, when you have as many pieces as possible from one color!

Merging is limitless
You can merge 2 pieces as often as you want, however at some point it is not worth it anymore. All piece variants (elements) have 4 levels. You get to a higher level by merging 2 of the same one. However, merging 2 level 4 pieces will result in another level 4 piece. This means, you should only merge level 4 pieces to unlock another level 4 piece, or to combine two key parts into a full key.

Merging with locked pieces provide Grand Prize progress and rewards
Whenever you merge one piece with a locked one, you receive a reward. You can already see what you will get by first clicking on the locked piece. It will display the Grand Prize progress and reward you will receive when unlocking it by merging.

Key parts are only on locked pieces
No matter how many pieces you spawn, none will have a key piece attached to it. Only the locked pieces on the board have a key part. So don't waste your precious Energy on trying to get more key parts!

Wind pieces have a higher chance to appear
Did you know, that wind pieces appear more often than other ones? This means you will get more Wind Keys in the end. So choose your chest on where to spend your keys wisely.

Remember the Daily Challenges
Daily Challenges are a part of this Event as well. Every day you have the option to choose the Event Key chest, providing 10 of one key variant or some energy. Completing the challenges might give you just the right keys or remaining energy you needed.

Incidents are important too
Not only Daily Challenges provide a reward for the Event, Incidents in and around your city do the same. They have a chance to provide you with some extra Energy to spawn more pieces!

Keys are here to stay
You don't have to worry about keys being lost when resetting or completing your board. They will stay until the Event is over. Only key parts left on the board might get lost.


Finishing the board provides extra keys and a great reward
Whenever you finish a board you get a random reward from the displayed chest. However, you also receive some keys, depending on what is left on your board. You get keys for the following:
  • 1 key for every 10 pieces of the same element without a key part.
  • 1 key for every 4 pieces of the same element with one key part.
  • 1 key for every piece of the same element with a full key.
This means you should always check what is left on your board before resetting. Spending a bit of energy can make sure you get a couple extra keys!

Converting pieces is (almost) always a good idea
You probably already know, that you have to combine 2 different key parts to get a full key. What you may not know is, that depending on how big the pieces is, the amount of keys varies too! Level 3 pieces only provide 1 key when converted, while level 4 pieces provide 3! So make sure to always get your pieces to level 4.

Choose your chests carefully
Depending on what your aim for the event is, you should carefully think about what chest to choose. Bronze chests are great to spend one key variant for a great reward, including the most Daily Specials, however they provide less progress towards the Grand Prize. Golden chests provide less rewards, however they help you progress towards the Grand Prizes way better than smaller chests. Silver chests are a balance between both.

Chest rewards are doubled once per day
Every day, the first chest you open will provide double the rewards, including progress towards the Grand Prize. So make sure to collect at least one per day to get the most out of it. Also, you should open the biggest chest in these cases. It can also be good to open a couple chest on the previous day to get a better chest to double for the next day. Remember: The chests only change when you open one, they stay the same overnight!

Converting is better than finishing the board
You should always Convert your level 4 pieces with full keys before finishing your board (resetting it). This is because by finishing it, you only receive 1 key for every full key on the board, no matter if they are level 4 pieces or not. So to not lose out on keys, make sure to convert every one you have before finishing your board.

You don't have to finish a board
Sometimes it can be frustrating to get the last pieces to unlock the last pieces. We understand that and provided an option to reset the board. This will leave you with no extra keys and completion reward, however it gives you a new board to unlock a lot of pieces again. The first reset every day is free, afterwards it will cost an increasing amount of Energy per reset. The cost will be reset every day as well. If you play your cards right, resetting before completing a board can be beneficial!
