The Air Races mini-event was introduced with the Dangerous Journey Update 2.34. The first Air Races mini-event started on March 11, 2023.

This is a competition based mini-event and you are playing against other players to try to reach the goal first. The goal is to be the first to save 2500 seconds.

Explore any locations (not puzzles) to try to save seconds and accumulate points. There is a 30 second bonus awarded if the current Main Event Location is played.

There are awards for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.

With the Echo of Celebrations update 2.37 released May 24, 2023, you can observe other players' progress upon completing the Air Race event. Magister's Path locations can be used in the Air Races mini-event to accumulate points.

With the In the Sea's Grip update 2.28, released June 21, 2023, Air Races can now be played multiple times in a row: Now you can continue playing Air Races even after the first round is finished. You'll have three more rounds to compete for first place and win amazing rewards! Plus, if you already reached first place in one of the previous rounds and received a frame, you can now win different valuable prizes. So, get ready for more fun and keep playing!

## Playing

Once the Air Races mini-event has started, the first location you play will count as a pre-qualifying round and the seconds saved will count toward the total seconds saved once you begin the Air Races. In order to pre-qualify, you must save at least 60 seconds.

Play any location(s) and save 60 seconds to pre-qualify.

Once you pre-qualify, you do not need to start the Air Races right away. When you are ready to play, click on the Air Races Icon along the right-hand side to start playing the mini-event.

When you start the Air Races, the amount of seconds saved that were accumulated during the pre-qualify round is the amount that you start with.

As you play, other players will be added to compete against.

The race is completed once you save 2500 seconds.

Explore any locations (not puzzles) to try to save seconds and accumulate points. There is a 30 second bonus awarded if the current Main Event Location is played. Locations in the Magister's Path competition can count toward the race.

Prizes are awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. A special frame will be awarded for 1st place.

## Additional Races

With the In the Sea's Grip update 2.28, released June 21, 2023, Air Races can now be played up to 4 times. After completing each Race you can click on "New Race" at the bottom of the Air Races Screen to start a new race.

Once you start a new game, you will need to explore a location and save more than 60 seconds to pre-qualify. As soon as you pre-qualify, the second and third races will start **immediately**.

To complete the first race, save 2500 seconds.
To complete the second, third and fourth races, save 3000 seconds.

The special Air Races frame will be awarded only once if placing first. If you place first in multiple races, you will receive a chest instead.
