## Event Content

### Event Materials

While the event was live, rewards for event-specific, normal and battle quests at quest level 4 and above included red hero capes, radioactive spiders, and chemical jars, Call of Heroes event materials that could be used to craft hero eggs and plushies and acquire new guild leader items. These materials could also be purchased as microtransactions in the Event Shop.

 Event Pack:  1000 of each Call of Heroes material,  300 gems and Stormcloud | $9.99 USD
 1000 of each Call of Heroes material
 500 of each Call of Heroes material

The quest selection screen included a materials boost button offering the option to watch an ad and get double event materials from quest rewards for 30 minutes. Alternatively, purchasing a new premium hero for real money would double event materials from quest rewards and purchasing two or more microtransaction cats would triple them. These boosts lasted for the duration of the event and replaced the ad boost option.

### Premium Heroes

The Event Shop offered three new Call of Heroes heroes as microtransaction purchases and all five returning heroes available for gems.

The event introduced a Super Sweeper mini-game, a Minesweeper clone accessed by tapping the bomb icon in the lower left of the guild hall screen. The "How to play" button provided instructions.

### Event Box

The event box was shown in the final tab of the Event Shop window. It could be purchased for 50,000 coins every 2 days or for 60 gems otherwise at any time. Players got a free box at the start of the event as well. For each box purchase, a player received one of the nine prizes shown in the window, chosen at random. The prize pool, which was automatically refreshed every day at midnight local time, could also be reset by watching an ad, and then for successively higher gem prices starting at 5 gems.

The overall prize pool for the event box included the following:

* All five previous Call of Heroes premium heroes: Justicecat, Metal Claw, Iko.N, Red Robin and Mequa.
* Five Call of Heroes hero outfits, one for each of the following cats: Conan, Catniss, Francis, Leonard and Mewton.

### Event Badges

Players could earn up to nine event badges by acquiring new event content and completing event quests. Prizes were awarded for obtaining 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 badges. Progress was tracked and prizes could be claimed in the Event Badges window accessed by tapping the red cape icon in the bottom left of the guild hall screen.
