Series

\*  A full list of Series, with most recent listed first, is available in the Archive. Includes links to prizes for each Series.

### **Series: Intro**

**Series** are sets of themed challenges. These are often much anticipated by players because of the prizes!

There are usually **six or seven** Limited Time challenges in each Series, with prizes awarded at the completion of both six and seven of the style challenges. The prize for completing six has usually been a Hair Accessory, while the prize for completing all seven has usually been a Prop Pack. Challenges for the Series will be marked and pinned at the top of the Limited Time challenges screen. You'll also see a progress bar marked "Challenge Goals" under the current challenge for the Series. (It's in the same place as the progress bar for the weekly Spree.)

All of the Series completion prizes are unique, previously unreleased items. Series HAs and Prop Packs do become available for purchase in the Covet store, though, after the Series ends - in the same way Rally HAs do - so if you miss something you really wanted, buying is an option. You can check out the Series Archive if you want to know which HAs and Props were previous Series prizes.

Additionally, Series prizes are awarded to players who achieve the top cumulative scores in all seven of the challenges. This set of prizes are a specific number of diamonds, depending on where you place, with 100 player slots on the Leaderboard. Make the top 100, and you'll get in on these extra Series prizes.

### **Series: Types**

***Monthly Series***

LIke it sounds, these are usually released once a month. They most often include 6 or 7 challenges united by a theme (such as the office-themed "You're the Boss" Series from Summer 2020), but have been known to include more. (See the "Escape to Summer" entry in the Series Archive and read all about Etta's adventures in the Hidden Realms - one of the longest Series in Covet history.) Style challenges for Series are usually released once per day and include 100$ and 200$ challenges. Quite often during these Series, Covet releases new Covet Collection items relevant to the Series theme, and that match requirements for some of the Series challenges. Very occasionally, a Monthly Series will have an additional unique item prize (such as the mystery-themed "Trouble in Paradise" Series, als of Summer 2020, which featured an additional white rose prop).

***Dual Season Series***
These are usually labeled as **Sprint to Fall/Winter/Spring/Summer**) and released during a Covet Season change, with between 9 and 11 challenges for each Series. The Dual Season challenges are not united by a theme. Instead, all of the challenges in these Series are just the regular, Limited Time challenges BUT the Season Bonus for these Series challenges applies to items belonging to both the current Season and the upcoming Season. In effect, these Series help you get a head start on the new Season just before it launches. As with the Monthly Series, prizes are often HAs and Props. Additionally, prizes at benchmark scores for the individual challenges are usually items for the upcoming Season.

***Flashback Series***

These Series only include Flashback challenges. They tend to be more expensive to enter, especially for newer players. However, they're not released as frequently. Flashback Series usually have fewer challenges in total, with a minimum of four, and may offer only the HA for prizes (as with the steampunk-themed "The Revolution is Here" Flashback Series of Spring 2020).

***Miscellaneous Series***

Covet has run a few non-recurring Series to coincide with milestone events (such as the "Sustainable from Head to Toe" Series of Fall 2019 to mark Earth Day) or important real-world events. The Covid-19 Pandemic Series of Spring 2020, "Support Our Heroes," generated heated debate amongst players, but will certainly be remembered as an important example of the ways in which games interact with real-world contexts.
