Today is the dawn of a New Year: a time to reflect and grow from the past year's experiences. It also marks a new beginning with good tidings, hope and peace!

Dear settlers,

BB_Santa has proven to be very active these days. Not only did he distribute gifts all around the world, but he also found some Christmas collectibles on his way!

Check your in-game mails to see if you've been on his nice list!

Ho Ho Ho!

Dear Settlers,

There have been whispers of a madman running down your streets in nothing but his old-fashioned pyjamas, handing out gifts to everyone he sees while screaming "Merry Christmas"! This most peculiar event aside, you can't say no to free presents!

Warm wishes for this festive season and happy holidays!

Dear Settlers,

One of the best things in life is music... all the more so during winter holiday season! Be part of the Christmas magic and join our "Guess the Christmas Song" contest - and if you worry about the prizes, we made sure your efforts will be rightly rewarded!  

Before taking part in our event, make sure you visited enough Christmas markets and shops to get familiar once again with famous winter holiday tunes! Hit the language you are accustomed with for songs in English, French, German, Polish or Spanish!

Let the game begin!

Dear Settlers,

For this season we made sure you have a Mary Christmas... available at the in-game merchant! Along with this new general, a new mysterious box is awaiting you!

So wrap yourself up in the blanket, grab a hot lemon tea and put on your reading glasses! It's time for a brand new Dev Diary: our yearly snow-filled Xmas event is returning to our islands!

Happy settling!
