17.04.2014Gifts and egg rewards for adventures
Dear Settlers,
Rabbids are running wild on your island. In order to distract them from throwing your island into chaos, a gift package was sent as they like to unpack presents. Please check your ingame mailbox as a message has been sent to all recently active players.

Egg rewards for completed adventures:
Sometimes Rabbids are stealing eggs from adventures. In case you didn't receive the egg rewards after completing an adventure, an ingame mail will be sent approx. 10 minutes after completion. Missing eggs from previously solved adventures will be sent with Easter Removal phase 1.
Hence, everybody will get the correct amount of eggs for completed adventures.
Happy Settling
