PAST EVENT - Hey Everybunny, It's the Easter Event!
Yes, we really did just use that thread title. And we are okay with it! We are happy to announce that the Easter Event will come to your islands on March 21, 2013, directly after the maintenance. More details about Easter Event dates can be found below. Follow the white rabbit, search for special Easter Eggs and bring great fun to your Settlers!
Easter Event Dates (Subject to change!)
Start: March 21st, 2013
Removal I: April 11th, 2013
Removal II: April 18th, 2013
After "Removal I," explorers will not be able to find Easter Eggs anymore. In addition, you will be unable to start new event quest chains. The "Removal II" phase will finish the Easter event completely (i.e. replace Easter graphics with the standard ones and remove the Easter category from the Shop). Below we're happy to detail the Easter Egg Hunt and other Easter surprises awaiting you during this event!

You can collect lots of Easter Eggs during the event! You can then exchange these in the Shop for various buffs, buildings, specialists and decorative items. Easter Eggs are trade-able and appear in the storehouse(s) like all other resources, as usual. How can you get Easter Eggs? Here are the various ways to gather them:- As a reward for completing a series of Easter Egg quests,
- As a lucky find when the explorer returns from one of four looking for treasure,
- As a result of trade with other players,
- From the Shop in exchange for Gems.
You will find the Easter Eggs in your warehouse in the "Basic" goods category.
Easter Egg Hunting is an Adventure!

Apart from using explorers who are searching for treasures to help you in the Easter Egg Hunt, you can also follow the new weekly quest chains. During the Easter event, all active players with level 17+ will have a chance to cooperate with a new NPC: he will assign them one quest chain every 6 days. Each quest chain will consist of several sub quests, including quests related to Easter adventures.
The quests will be split into 3 level ranges: 17-24, 25-39 and 40-50. The Easter adventures and quest texts will be the same for all levels – the only differentiation between different level ranges is the amount of resources needed for completing the task.
Important: after finishing the Easter quest, Easter Eggs will be sent directly to your storehouse.
How to start the Easter Adventure?
To start the Easter adventure, click the adventure icon in the Star menu and then select "Start Adventure". The adventure will now appear in your quest book or to the right of the screen. In order to complete the adventure select it in the Quest book and then click "Visit," or click on the adventure on the right of the screen and then click "Visit" in the popup menu. After you have entered the Easter adventure, follow the quests mentioned in the Quest book.
You can check the details of the adventure in the quest book to see how many Easter Eggs remain to be found. Keep in mind that each adventure has to be completed manually by clicking the respective button in the quest book. Every player will be able to purchase one additional Easter adventure in the Shop (for 1 Fish). The purchase of Easter adventures will not be limited to any level range, so players lower than level 17 will be able to buy them as well. All players will be able to start the Easter adventures, even the ones below level 26.
Important: if you finish the Easter adventure without Easter quest running, you will receive NO REWARD.
