Hocus Pocus
The Hocus Pocus Event is the Halloween event. The Currencies include Candy and Vile Brew. Vile Brew is the goal of the event and can be used to purchase rewards such as Skins and Relics.
In 2023, the event begins on October the 21st, and lasts 13 days, ending on November the 1st at midnight.
Candy
Candy is the first resource of the event. They can be used as follows:
- Clearing Thorns: The event begins with 20 Thorns. You can spend Candy to remove them at the cost of 5 Candy increasing by 5 more Candy every time you remove a Thorn.
- Purchase Stations: As you progress through the Recipe List, you will unlock new Stations. These Stations can be purchased with Candy. See Stations section for more info.
- Station Refills: They can be spent to instantly refill a Station at an increasing cost of 25>50>75>100, caping at 100. The Cost resets every day of the event.
You can earn Candy by doing the following:
- Candy Buckets: The Candy Buckets are event stations. They produce one Candy every 15 minutes and can store up to 100 Candies. You start with a free one and can purchase up to two more with Gems.
- Trick Or Treaters: A Trick or Treater will show up daily in the main lair. You can either feed them to the Devourer for 25 Candy or watch an ad for 50 Candy.
- Merging in the Lair: Candy can be earned by merging in the Main Lair.
Every merge in the main game has a chance to make a Candy. As you make more Candies, your chances drop. This resets each day.
