Gather all the tokens that were dispersed around the world of Howrse to launch the apparition of the new divine horse Spring and the big Festivities on the game!
As some may have heard. hOWrse's promo routine has changed! For good or for worse, you decide.
So let me try to explain the new game/"promo".
The Big Challenge groups the efforts of the whole community to gather the required amount of horseshoes. (Horseshoes this once. Maybe different items later on ).
Once the required amount has been reached the Festivities begin, a lottery and Horns of Plenty give you the opportunity to try and get a new divine horse from the latest collection: This particular one is Spring the Season’s divine horse
But don’t panic when you see the huge amount of horseshoes that is required to launch theFestivities. You will be thousands collecting them as the days go by and they will increase rapidly.
How to win Horseshoes
The Daily Achievements
Every day you have 6 achievements with an increasing difficult level for each one
They change each day whether you’ve completed them or not
They are different from one player to the next
UFOs
Easy! You just have to be a mouse master and click the horseshoes flying around your screen.
The Grand Prix
The Grand Prix now offers horseshoes, the amount varying according to your placing.
The competitions
Some competitions offer horseshoes instead of equus. It’s written on the competition.
To get the best out of the comp keep on reading :)
You can define how much energy your horse should spend on that competitions. The more energy your horse spends on a competition, the more chance he has of winning.
It’s therefore possible that the horse that comes out as a winner from a horseshoes competition, isn’t the one with the most skills or bonuses amongst all the contestants.
Your horse has to win the competition to get the horseshoes. The more equus a competition offers in its usual kitty, the more horseshoes it’ll offer.
You (your horses) can enter ten of these competitions per day.
These competitions are fairly rare, it’s normal to not find any available at times. They are chosen randomly amongst the competitions that exist on the game.
Perks
Taking part in the Big Challenge offers you some benefits for the Festivities; the more horseshoes you gather, the more benefits!
You will also be rewarded for being the biggest horseshoe gatherer or the person who finds the last one and activates the Festivities .
Go to the home page to discover these benefits, as well as to visualise the ranking. It’ll allow you to know where you stand compared to other players.
F&Q
Here are some Facts and Questions that I found in a post by Ow.
1/ I saw that some players had already found the divine in Horns of Plenty, how come?
Yes, this only concerns players with a VIP account. They can try their luck with Horns of Plenty if they wish, even before the Festivities start. For everyone else it’ll be possible to get the divine in Horns of Plenty but only during the Festivities. If you aren’t a VIP it is impossible for you to get the divine outside of the Festivities.
2/ Didn’t the Grand Prix give more equus before?
Yes, we have diminished the amount in equus that it offers. From now on it’ll also gives horseshoes during the Big Challenge.
3/ If I don’t take part in the Big Challenge at all will I be able to take part in the Festivities?
Yes of course.
4/ How can I get back to the home page easily once I’m on the game?
You simply need to click on the Howrse logo on the top left of the game.
5/ If I have the Strength of the Typhoon bonus does it double the horseshoes I can earn?
Yes this bonus also applies to the horseshoes won in the Grand Prix.
Tell me what you think in the comments. And I will see you in my next post,
Good Luck!
