Spin the Wheel!

Welcome to our Park of Horrors! The familiar Wheel mechanic is alive and kicking, but this time we've put a new spin on it (pun definitely intended)! Introducing: the Wheel of Misfortune!

Practice your aim as you throw Knives at the spinning Wheel trying to "nail" the rewards and make them yours for the taking! But beware: your neighbours are right there with you, aiming for the same prizes. Continue reading this announcement for tips on how to survive the hot competition, successfully dodge the flurry of flying knives, and emerge the winner in your tremendous glory!

Upgraded Tutorial

We've given our tutorial a polish for this special occasion! No need to waste any moves following the tutorial steps, and re-play them any time in case you were too terrified of our evil Ringmaster to read it the first time!

The Devilish Dagger Toss!

As the mysterious Ringmaster beckons you to step up to his sinister Wheel of Misfortune, you wonder: do you have the steady hand and nerve to win the most coveted treasures? Fret not, for we sneaked in some tips and tricks to help you survive this eerie challenge!

Knife-Throwing Mechanics

Throw to Win	To begin, click on the event banner to enter the amusement park. In front of you will be the Wheel of Misfortune, ready to offer you a chance to practice your throwing skills. To throw Knives, you need to use Halloween Tickets (it is an amusement park, after all, despite all the horrors that go down). Just like with the Pirate Wheel from the previous editions of the Summer Event, you'll choose to either throw or refresh and throw for a fresh set of prizes! Each Throw will provide 10 Grand Prize Progress per knife and 5 additional, when you also gain an Energy Token.
Neighborhood Rivalry	The Wheel of Misfortune is shared with your entire neighborhood! Time your throws carefully, as your neighbors can claim prizes from the same wheel. If all prizes are claimed, the wheel will automatically reset with a new set of spooky rewards. Don’t let them steal your prize!
Dagger and Energy	To earn enough Halloween Tickets to bombard the Wheel of Misfortune with Knives and snatch all the prizes you can get, complete Daily tasks, Event quests, and open random incidents in your city. In addition, you can collect brand-new Energy Tokens from some prize instances on the Wheel (Witch's Brew, Moonlight Fuel, and Ghostly Gulp) to trade for exclusive rewards. Both the Knife Throws and the Energy Tokens provide Grand Prize progress points that bring you closer to the biggest rewards!

Some prizes can be won multiple times - the rarer the prize, the fewer copies on the board!

Multi-Throw Options

Want to up the stakes and get one up on your neighbors? Choose to throw 1, 3, or even 5 knives at once for the chance to claim multiple rewards in one spin! Be strategic, as fewer rewards remaining on the board may mean some knives hit the same prize, while refreshing will unlock new wheels full of more treasures!

Rewards Await!

From spooky boosters to cursed trinkets, each knife that hits the wheel earns you terrifyingly good prizes! Every spin also adds to your Grand Prize Progress, helping you get closer to this year's ultimate haunted reward.

This Year’s Grand Prize

And now for the moment you’ve been dreading—the Eerie Thrill Coaster! This is a 8 level building with an additional Silver and Golden level which provides attack boost, Forge Points! 

Check our Rewards page to learn more!

Historical Allies

Keep a wary eye on your prize lane! You might remember Alexander the Great, not only from school, but as one of our first Historical Allies. In our previous Fellowship Event, players could win the Common Alexander the Great.

In the Halloween Event, we're introducing the upgraded version of Alexander – our first Uncommon Historical Ally, that provides even bigger boosts to aid your City progression!
Note: Uncommon Allies can only be placed in Uncommon rooms. You can not mix rarities.

Daily Tasks

The circus isn’t just about knife-throwing! Throughout the event, you’ll be tasked with completing spooky quests and challenges. Earn energy tokens, and tickets to spin the wheel and claim daily prizes!

Energy Rewards

Collect energy tokens from the wheel—each one fills up a bar. Once your bar is full, claim exclusive potion rewards that grant powerful bonuses or even rare prizes. Can’t collect enough energy? You can trade tokens with the Rebalance button to boost your progress and earn your rewards faster!

For opening all chests you gain a special bonus reward: The Enchanted Elixers Emporium! 

Discount alert! Spend 200 Tickets to open all six chests simultaneously. 

Abominable Avatars

Last but not least, why not scare your guildmates with one of our spooky new avatars? Choose from a sinister circus performer, a horrible harlequin, a freaky fortune teller or many more!

Dare to step into the dark and test your luck at the knife-throwing wheel! Spin the wheel, throw your daggers, and walk away with hauntingly good rewards—if you survive, that is.

Sincerely,
Your Fearsome Forge of Empires Team
