Hi, Adorers!

Exciting news about a new event in our game, The Hunting Season - Halloween!

Watch on YouTube

At this event, you'll have the chance to capture creatures with a fresh and unique, Halloween-themed visual using the hunting system.

Halloween-themed creatures' skins

Kroto (Epic)

For Kroto, he sports a cool skull helmet (I believe he might be imitating someone from the village).

Tzena (Epic)

Tzena dons a classic witch hat and is all set to employ her electric power like a true witch.

Meecra (Mythic)

Meera adorns the most iconic helmet from this event—a pumpkin head!

How to get access to the event

To gain access to this seasonal event, you must progress further in the Adore story to unlock the hunting system. After that, simply talk to Maena and select ‘Hunting Season’.

Now, all that's left is for you to choose the creature you want to hunt. Oh, and don't forget, you'll need essences to initiate a hunt!

Will this event be time-limited? No! The new creatures' skins will be available for hunting indefinitely.

If you want to talk directly to the devs and send us any suggestions or critiques, feel free to join our community: Cadabra Discord.

Please, If you encounter any issues, send them to us at #bug-report at Cadabra Discord.

Good luck and happy hunting!

Fanarts!
