Castle Update 10/16/14: Halloween Event!

Hey everyone, this week's update is Castle Story's second World Event - this time, Halloween Themed!

Collect Candy Corn to earn the different Halloween prizes. You can get it by:

• Harvesting from Corn
• Going on the Trick or Treat Adventure
• Crafting it in the Kitchen
• Visiting your characters' Houses
• The Jack o Lantern item, which you can find in BUILDINGS -> SPECIAL in the Market
• and a few other places...

We hope you enjoy this event's prizes, including the new Spooky Wall set which is in my opinion our coolest wall yet!

We also heard your feedback from the last event and have some cool functional prizes to earn:

Cownt Dracula is a terrifying... cow? In addition to boosted Prime Cut and Hide drops, he also produces a variety of red items. Is that blood? (It's not.)

Collect from The Witch's Cauldron to earn a variety of different potion items - almost every single thing you can craft in the Potion Shop, you can get from the Cauldron. Ivy will be pleased!

Find Bones, Creep Tooth, and occasionally Living Wood at the Spooky Tree.

And last but not least, the absolutely stunning Haunted Hall, which you can build using the Fancy Chandelier from the event's 3rd Individual Prize. Aside from looking TOTALLY AWESOME, the Hall has a low chance to drop Earth Wisps, Wisp Lanterns, and Lumin Essence.

Have fun everyone. The event starts today at NOON PST and expires on 11/03 :)

Edit: This event is available for all players LV 15+. Please make sure you update to version 1.2.5!

awesome! psyched :) I luuuvvv Halloween!!

It's just such a good setup for Halloween! We won't be running these kinds of events as often as some of our other games though :)

OMG! How fabulous! Now to try and use up my stash of corn! So I can harvest some more!

Sounds exciting! Can't wait (13 more minutes!). :D

Oh god exciting CS events and I have a ridiculously full work schedule :'(
