Forge of Empires Aniversario 2024
¿Cómo puedo participar en el Evento de Aniversario de Forge of Empires?
Si participaste en el Evento de Aniversario del año pasado, ya has empezado a ayudar a nuestro equipo de científicos en su investigación de las misteriosas Gemas de origen desconocido. Este año, ¡la aventura continúa!
Desde entonces, los investigadores han propuesto la teoría de que las Gemas, las Llaves y los Cofres fueron creados por un antiguo precursor de nuestra civilización. Aun así, esta teoría carece de pruebas, por lo que todavía queda mucho por investigar, ¡y ahí es donde entras tú!
Ayudando a nuestro equipo científico en sus esfuerzos, es probable que descubras nuevas herramientas que te ayudarán a trabajar las Gemas de forma más eficiente, ya sea influyendo en su afinidad con la nueva y vanguardista tecnología de la Esencia Prismática o rompiéndolas en trozos más pequeños (¡para la investigación, por supuesto!) con la Piqueta de gemas de alta tecnología (¡no dejes que su simple nombre te engañe!). Sigue jugando al Evento si quieres conocer la historia oculta de esas herramientas.
El trabajo en equipo, la investigación y los grandes descubrimientos te ayudarán a triunfar en el evento. Pero antes de sumergirte en él, ¡descubre en este artículo las novedades del Evento de Aniversario de este año!
La anfitriona
Para que ayudes en sus investigaciones y en las tuyas propias, nuestros personajes han vuelto a contratar a Lilith, la Maestra de las Llaves. Supervisando todos los detalles operativos, Lilith te dará misiones de evento. Asegúrate de completarlas para ganar suficiente Energía para extraer las Gemas. Por supuesto, la Energía también se puede encontrar en incidentes, como en cualquier otro evento.

The Mechanics
Spawn and merge the Gems
When the event starts, you will gain access to a board full of marvelous Gems. Most of these Gems will be locked in place behind the glass. To break the glass and unlock the Gem, you need a free Gem of the same color and level.
To get the free Gem, click on the Spawner 
button. This button will use Energy to spawn the Gem. You can then use this newly spawned Gem to "break the glass" and unlock a locked Gem of the same size and color. Doing so, you will also level up your Gem and can use it to continue merging. Every new merge with a locked piece will also get you a small reward and Grand Prize progress. The higher the level of the Gem, the bigger the reward!
Note: Gems will get you different type rewards depending on their color. Check out the Cheat Sheet under the board to see which rewards you can get!
Convert Gems into Keys
Each locked Gem will also come with a Key part: either a top part or a bottom part. Pay close attention to these when you are choosing which Gems to merge! If you merge two Gems with Key parts, those parts will be combined into a full Key. But remember — to make a full Key you need to merge a top part and a bottom part, as well as the colors and sizes of the Gems.
Feed the Gems with a full Key into your Converter to remove the piece from the board and free up the Key. Keys can be created on Gems of many sizes, but the bigger the Gem, the more Keys you will get for converting that Gem! You can also receive one per day from Daily Challenges.
Open Chests for rewards
Keys can be used to unlock Chests to give you a chance to win the Daily Special, among a variety of other useful resources!
Your first Chest of each day will also have a bonus increasing the prizes you gain from that Chest, so pick your first Chest of the day carefully!
What's New?
Use the boosters to pave your way to success!
Three new boosters are adding to the excitement this year! Here's what to expect:
 Gem Mines Booster |
Activate this booster and watch as it spawns new Gem pieces onto your board, enhancing your strategic play. If there's room on the board, a new piece magically appears, complete with an animation to mark its arrival. You will see a hint at the bottom of the board indicating that a new piece has been spawned. But beware, if the board is full, you'll be alerted that there's no room for more. |
|---|
 Gem Pickaxe Booster. |
This tool is your best friend for managing your pieces. Use it on a Пem, and it breaks down into two pieces of the level just below it, doubling your strategic options. If a piece holds a Лey, the two new pieces inherit this Лey, ensuring your hard-earned progress is never lost. Note: This booster only works on free pieces, adding a layer of strategy to your game. |
|---|
 Prismatic Essence Booster. |
A true game-changer, this booster transforms all pieces of a single color on the board to colorless, opening up new combo possibilities. Colorless pieces can merge with any color, adopting that color and retaining any Key parts. However, these versatile pieces cannot be added to the converter, and their special status comes with unique rules for merging and splitting. |

Anniversary 2024 Tips and tricks
Make use of new Boosters!
If you need more matches but lack Energy, spawn more Gems without spending Energy with new Gem Mines Booster. You also have a chance to get a colorless piece!
An abundance of small locked Gem Pieces on the board but nothing to match them with?
Use Gem Pickaxe to break down a higher-level piece into two lower-level pieces. Note: any Keys or Key parts on the higher-level piece will be retained on both lower-level pieces.
Need more versatility for your matches? Use Prismatic Essence! It converts all pieces of one color on the board to colorless. Colorless pieces can be merged with any color, but while they are colorless their Keys can't be converted, so make sure to match any standalone colorless piece with a colored Gem. Make sure to use it, when you have as many pieces as possible from one color!
Merging is limitless.
You can merge 2 pieces as often as you want, however at some point it is not worth it anymore. All piece variants (elements) have 4 levels. You get to a higher level by merging 2 of the same one. However, merging 2 level 4 pieces will result in another level 4 piece. This means, you should only merge level 4 pieces to unlock another level 4 piece, or to combine two Key parts into a full Key.
Merging with locked pieces provide Grand Prize progress and rewards.
Whenever you merge one piece with a locked one, you receive a reward. You can already see what you will get by first clicking on the locked piece. It will display the Grand Prize progress and reward you will receive when unlocking it by merging.
Key parts are only on locked pieces.
No matter how many pieces you spawn, none will have a Key piece attached to it. Only the locked pieces on the board have a Key part. So don't waste your precious Energy on trying to get more Key parts!
Wind pieces have a higher chance to appear.
Did you know, that wind pieces appear more often than other ones? This means you will get more Wind Keys in the end. So choose your Chest on where to spend your Key wisely.
Remember the Daily Challenges.
Daily Challenges are a part of this Event as well. Every day you have the option to choose the Event Key Chest, providing 10 of one Key variant or some energy. Completing the challenges might give you just the right Key or remaining energy you needed.
Incidents are important too.
Not only Daily Challenges provide a reward for the Event, Incidents in and around your city do the same. They have a chance to provide you with some extra Energy to spawn more pieces!
Keys are here to stay. You don't have to worry about Keys being lost when resetting or completing your board. They will stay until the Event is over. Only Key parts left on the board might get lost.
Finishing the board provides extra Keys and a great reward.
Whenever you finish a board you get a random reward from the displayed Chest. However, you also receive some Keys, depending on what is left on your board. You get Keys for the following:
1 Key for every 10 pieces of the same element without a Key part.
1 Key for every 4 pieces of the same element with one Key part.
1 Key for every piece of the same element with a full Key.
This means you should always check what is left on your board before resetting. Spending a bit of energy can make sure you get a couple extra Keys!
Converting pieces is (almost) always a good idea. You probably already know, that you have to combine 2 different Key parts to get a full Key. What you may not know is, that depending on how big the pieces is, the amount of Keys varies too! Level 3 pieces only provide 1 Key when converted, while level 4 pieces provide 3! So make sure to always get your pieces to level 4.
Choose your Chests carefully.
Depending on what your aim for the event is, you should carefully think about what Chest to choose. Bronze Chests are great to spend one Key variant for a great reward, including the most Daily Specials, however they provide less progress towards the Grand Prize. Golden Chests provide less rewards, however they help you progress towards the Grand Prizes way better than smaller Chests. Silver Chests are a balance between both.
Chest rewards are doubled once per day. Every day, the first Chest you open will provide double the rewards, including progress towards the Grand Prize. So make sure to collect at least one per day to get the most out of it. Also, you should open the biggest Chest in these cases. It can also be good to open a couple Chest on the previous day to get a better Chest to double for the next day. Remember: The Chests only change when you open one, they stay the same overnight!
Converting is better than finishing the board. You should always Convert your level 4 pieces with full Keys before finishing your board (resetting it). This is because by finishing it, you only receive 1 Key for every full Key on the board, no matter if they are level 4 pieces or not. So to not lose out on Keys, make sure to convert every one you have before finishing your board.
You don't have to finish a board. Sometimes it can be frustrating to get the last pieces to unlock the last pieces. We understand that and provided an option to reset the board. This will leave you with no extra Keys and completion reward, however it gives you a new board to unlock a lot of pieces again. The first reset every day is free, afterwards it will cost an increasing amount of Energy per reset. The cost will be reset every day as well. If you play your cards right, resetting before completing a board can be beneficial!
