Wurm Online (like many other games) has a Halloween event active for this year, so I spent some time yesterday collecting the new treats. You run around to doors (that do not belong to you) and knock – and trick or treat, either a greenish mob will spawn that you have to defeat (this happens for the really nice items) or you’ll get an NPC version who will give you an archaeology bit + a candy. This year the rewards were great, though I did have some issues placing the bat swarm in my house (I think I need a ceiling, and right now my Archives building does not have one).
I had every intention of staying logged in so that I could work on Quail Landing (my partially built very neglected castle deed on the main land of Independence) but instead I got sidetracked with a bunch of other stuff. I did also get the pumpkin lantern that you can attach to a vehicle, and this is probably my favourite item. I immediately attached it to my rare wagon, and now there’s a lit up jack-o-lantern beside me on the seat. Too cute!
I’m glad I got the items, and if you’ve never participated in this event before maybe check it out and see if you like it! Afterward, there’s tons of spooky archaeology bits to collect so you can make some fancy items of Halloweens past.
Happy gaming – no matter where you find yourself!
