Carnival Window

How to Play

Most of the action takes place in the event window. You're playing games in gaming alley by spending your Tickets. You decide which game you want to play. Each game costs only one Ticket to play, and don't worry if you run out, the Carnival provides a new free Ticket every hour! Enter the event window and select any of the three games to play:

You can spend your Ticket on a certain win, and you will always get something in return. However, you can also take a risk and try your luck in one of the other games, where chances to win are lower, but the potential gain is much greater.

Every time you lose, the pool of Florins rises for that particular option. The first person lucky enough to win, will take all the Florins that have accumulated in the meantime. While winning the first game is not much of an achievement (you will always win a small sum of Florins), it is a bit more difficult for the second and third game. If you have enough luck to be successful, you will win the entire Florins pool that has accumulated for this particular game.

And if you are the person that got the best result in a single attempt, you will become the "Top Gamester" and you will have a chance of getting a unique Mask Statue for your city. The mask is granted every three days, so make sure to keep an eye on the game and use your Tickets when the potential payout is high!

There are four different kinds of prizes that you can get during the Carnival Event:

• The Top Gamester reward awarded every 3 days: the Zanni Mask Statue, a 1x1 decoration.
• The Timed Reward you can get directly by spending Florins (it changes every 6 hours).
• A random reward from the chest (the chest's content changes every 12 hours).

The whole neighborhood is competing for the same Florins, and every 3 days the top player that has been rewarded the highest amount of Florins with one sole Ticket is named Top Gamester and receives a neighborhood reward - Zanni Mask Statue.

The left side prize in the bottom of the Event Window is rotated every 6 hours while the right side prize is rotated every 12 hours. This latter prize is called the Daily Special Chest and contains five different prizes with certain winning chances.

The mechanics of the event are mostly similar to last year's. However Roses and Hearts have been replaced by Tickets and Florins respectively.

Buying Event Currency

Both Tickets as well as Florins can be bought with diamonds. The respective rates are listed below:

For Tickets

Each Ticket has a unit price of 10 diamonds.

• 1 Ticket= 10 Diamonds
• 5 Tickets= 50 Diamonds
• 11 Tickets= 110 Diamonds

For Florins

• 400 Florins= 200 Diamonds= 2 Florins/Diamond
• 3500 Florins= 1650 Diamonds= 2.12 Florins/Diamond
• 10000 Florins= 4000 Diamonds= 2.5 Florins/Diamond
