In addition, we’d like to announce that Realm Grinder is going to be launched on mobile environment soon!Once it is out, you will be able to play on all Android and iOS devices with the same Cloud account you use on Kongregate.The new UI has been refit with that purpose in mind, but all purely web features such as tooltips and key bindings have been maintained. You may also switch from the new Upgrades view to the old one via the Switch Lists to Compact Style option in the Options menu without losing any functionalities.Regarding development, this won’t change anything: both versions work on the same engine, so we won’t have double the work to do and there will be no risk of discontinued developing for the web platform.Last but not least, we are already working on the next content update: Spell Upgrades! No ETA as of yet, but we’ll try our best to deliver it as soon as possible.

* **RUBY REVAMP**: You can now get rubies for free by excavating, and they now unlock upgrades and trophies as you accumulate them. They no longer give a fixed 2% bonus, but are instead tied to a new upgrade system. As a result, their bonus per money value has been increased significantly as Rubies now not only give a nifty bonus for accumulating them, but you can also spend them to fulfill your most urgent Realm Grinding needs such as assistants, mana regeneration and more. WARNING: rubies are no longer tied to your Kongregate account and will be reset upon Hard Resetting or importing from a different save. Rubies you purchased before this expansion will be available for transfer to a save of your choice.

### 2017

Hello Everyone!
Shadows are gathering, and monsters are starting to lurk in the dark corners of the Realms… Choose your own, feed and grow it to its maximum potential!
The Halloween event will be starting on Oct 28th 2016, 12.01 PM UTC and will end on Nov 04th 2016, 7.59 PM UTC.
This event will feature daily presents (as we did for the last Christmas), inside which you will found a random monster, up to a maximum of three. Once you have found a monster, you will be able to feed it resources (see below) to make it grow, unlocking perks and bonuses in the process.
There will be three new resources for the event: Blood, Ectoplasm and Bones. They will appear in a random location of the game screen at a rate of 1 per minute, stacking up to 480 units (8 hours). You can only collect one type of resource: by doing so, the others will disappear.
Each resource will be used to feed a single monster, which will gain levels as it grows. At levels 1, 10, 25 and 50 each monster will grant you new perks, including new unique spells and upgrades. You will be able to gain advantage of one single monster at a time, but they can be toggled on and off on the fly in the Event panel.
As usual, there will be Quests and Feats to unlock: you will be able to find every information you need in the Events panel in game!
Remember that all Halloween upgrades and their bonuses will disappear after the event is over, with the exception of Quest bonuses and Feat achievements.

Can you feel the love in the air? Be it romantic love, admiration towards the beauty of nature or passion for violence and torture, the Valentine’s Day event for Realm Grinder is coming.
The Valentine event will be starting on Feb 12th 2016, 1.01 PM UTC and will end on Feb 16th 2016, 12.59 PM UTC<
It will feature a new resource, Hearts , which can be collected passively at a rate of 1 per second. You will be able to increase your Heart production by doing any of the following:
* Casting Call to Love (see below) will increase your Hearts per second rate while online.
* Staying offline for specific amount of times will unlock upgrades which increase your Hearts per second rate while offline.
* Scrying and choosing the right option will temporarily increase your Hearts per second both online and offline.

Speaking about Call to Love , it is a new spell – only available during Valentine’s Event – which replaces Call to Arms for the same effect with a reduced cost of 200 mana (rather than Call to Arms’ 400).
What should I do with all these Hearts, you will ask? You will be able to spend them on upgrades, of course. For the duration of Valentine’s Event, Heart upgrades for assistants, mana regeneration, max mana, production bonus from gems and production bonus from royal exchanges will be available to purchase at a progressively increasing cost, much like the current Ruby upgrades. In addition, every 100 Heart upgrades purchased you will be awarded a free Ruby.
As usual, there will be Quests and Feats to unlock: you will be able to find every information you need in the Events panel in game! Note: Event Feat requirements will no longer be hidden before you unlock them.
**Update:** info on Heart production tiers.
Your Hearts per second will go up by 1 every time you cast an amount of Call to Love equal to a power of 10 (10, 100, 1000, 10000, …)
Your Offline Hearts per second will go up by 1 every time you stay offline for an amount of seconds equal to a power of 10 multiplied by 20 (200, 2000, 20000, 200000, …)

### 2016

Shadows are gathering, and monsters are starting to lurk in the dark corners of the Realms… Choose your own, feed and grow it to its maximum potential!
The Halloween event will be starting on Oct 28th 2016, 12.01 PM UTC and will end on Nov 04th 2016, 7.59 PM UTC.
This event will feature daily presents (as we did for the last Christmas), inside which you will found a random monster, up to a maximum of three. Once you have found a monster, you will be able to feed it resources (see below) to make it grow, unlocking perks and bonuses in the process.
There will be three new resources for the event: Blood, Ectoplasm and Bones. They will appear in a random location of the game screen at a rate of 1 per minute, stacking up to 480 units (8 hours). You can only collect one type of resource: by doing so, the others will disappear.
Each resource will be used to feed a single monster, which will gain levels as it grows. At levels 1, 10, 25 and 50 each monster will grant you new perks, including new unique spells and upgrades. You will be able to gain advantage of one single monster at a time, but they can be toggled on and off on the fly in the Event panel.
As usual, there will be Quests and Feats to unlock: you will be able to find every information you need in the Events panel in game!
Remember that all Halloween upgrades and their bonuses will disappear after the event is over, with the exception of Quest bonuses and Feat achievements.

The Summer Festival is going to enliven the realms very soon! You will be called upon to make a choice, for the **Summeraans** and the **Winterly** are bringing war in your lands.
**The Summer Festival event will be starting on Aug 30th 2016, 1.01 PM UTC and will end on Sep 06th 2016, 6.59 PM UTC.**
There will be two new resources for the event: **Flame** and **Frost** Orbs. They will appear in a random location of the game screen at a rate of 1 per minute, stacking up to 480 orbs (8 hours). You can only collect one type of orb: by doing so, the other will disappear.
Flame Orbs will be used to purchase and empower Summeraan upgrades, while Frost Orbs will do the same for the Winterly. As you may have been wondering until now, the **Summeraans** and the **Winterly** are two new mini-factions which will last for the duration of the event, they will stack upon any existing faction and will provide **3 new upgrades and a new spell** to boost your production! As with any faction in Realm Grinder, you can choose to affiliate with only one of them per abdication – upgrades will remain free if you purchased them once though.
As usual, there will be Quests and Feats to unlock: you will be able to find every information you need in the Events panel in game!
Remember that all Summer Festival upgrades and their bonuses will disappear after the event is over, with the exception of Quest bonuses and Feat achievements.

We’d like to thank you all for playing Realm Grinder with us for a whole year long. We are deeply grateful to every single one of you, and we wish to keep going forward with you for the years to come!
For May 19th, the first anniversary of Realm Grinder, we’d like to offer new and old players the chance to get the first two Gifts (Heroes and Kings) with a 50% discount.
Here’s a recap of the items on sale:
* **Gift of the Heroes**: Increase the production of all buildings by 25%, click rewards by 15%, faction coin chance by 5% and provide +0.50 mana per second. It will also grant +25,000 gold and +20 faction coins for each faction upon any reset, allowing you to immediately choose one of the vanilla factions. This upgrade is permanent and will persist through Abdications, Reincarnations, Ascensions and Hard Resets.
* **Gift of the Kings**: Increase the production of all buildings by 50%, click rewards by 30%, faction coin chance by 5% and provide a special assistant which actually autoclicks twice a second (triggering all real click effects and increasing the click stat). It will also grant +10 Quadrillion (10e15) gold and +500 coins for each vanilla faction upon any reset. This upgrade is permanent and will persist through Abdications and Hard Resets.

In addition to the sale, the event will also feature a **new unique upgrade**, boosting your production based on all the time you spent playing Realm Grinder.
The promotion and the upgrade effect duration will be limited to the anniversary event, starting May 19th 2016, 12.00 PM UTC and will end on May 20th 2016, 7.00 PM UTC.

As you know, in the next part of the Underworld expansion we will introduce a new faction, which like all prestiges, will stack its power upon the existing Neutral factions. We are finally ready to announce what it will be: **TROLLS**!
Trolls will feature a pink background and will have no assistant icon, while their unique building will be the Troll’s Den, replacing Orcish Arena. Most of their upgrades will be random-based, using random formulas for production boosts and picking random targets based on total clicks made. The development for the new faction is 75% complete and will be uploaded live in the next several days.
In the meantime, we added a new secret upgrade boosting your production significantly, to allow easier progress in all stages of the game. Its bonus will also not be reduced by Ascending, so make sure you look for it in your upgrades list! Cheers!

The Easter Season is coming to Realm Grinder. Make sure you bring your egg basket, because there will be a huge hunt to do!
The Easter event will be starting on Mar 25th 2016, 1.01 PM UTC and will end on Mar 31st 2016, 6.59 PM UTC. We moved the end of the event a couple hours later as many players asked last time!
The new resource for Easter will be, guess what, Eggs! They will appear in a random location of the game screen at a rate of 1 per minute, stacking up to 480 eggs (8 hours). When collected, each of them will produce one random Egg among three different types: Common, Rare and Unique.
* **Common Eggs** = White, normal eggs that will work as the primary currency for the Easter Event.
* **Rare Eggs** = Blue-colored eggs that also work as a currency for buying and increasing the bonus of an upgrade that boosts your production.
* **Unique Eggs** = Uniquely shaped and colored eggs that you can only find once per type. There are 8 Unique Eggs to find, and each one of them will unlock an unique upgrade. In addition, when you buy or find an Unique Egg, you will also gain a free Ruby!

As usual, there will be Quests and Feats to unlock: you will be able to find every information you need in the Events panel in game!
Remember that all Easter upgrades and their bonuses will disappear after the event is over, with the exception of Quest bonuses and Feat achievements.

Can you feel the love in the air? Be it romantic love, admiration towards the beauty of nature or passion for violence and torture, the Valentine’s Day event for Realm Grinder is coming.
The Valentine event will be starting on Feb 12th 2016, 1.01 PM UTC and will end on Feb 16th 2016, 12.59 PM UTC
It will feature a new resource, **Hearts**, which can be collected passively at a rate of 1 per second. You will be able to increase your Heart production by doing any of the following:
* Casting **Call to Love** (see below) will increase your Hearts per second rate while online.
* Staying offline for specific amount of times will unlock upgrades which increase your Hearts per second rate while offline.
* Scrying and choosing the right option will temporarily increase your Hearts per second both online and offline.

Speaking about **Call to Love**, it is a new spell – only available during Valentine’s Event – which replaces Call to Arms for the same effect with a reduced cost of 200 mana (rather than Call to Arms’ 400).
What should I do with all these Hearts, you will ask? You will be able to spend them on upgrades, of course. For the duration of Valentine’s Event, Heart upgrades for assistants, mana regeneration, max mana, production bonus from gems and production bonus from royal exchanges will be available to purchase at a progressively increasing cost, much like the current Ruby upgrades. In addition, every 100 Heart upgrades purchased you will be awarded a free Ruby.
As usual, there will be Quests and Feats to unlock: you will be able to find every information you need in the Events panel in game! Note: Event Feat requirements will no longer be hidden before you unlock them.

### 2015

Christmas is coming! The races of Realm Grinder will soon feel the benevolent (or malevolent. Or totally indifferent.) aura of Christmas. Make sure to prepare yourself for the new Event coming in the next days!

The Christmas Event will be starting on Dec 21st 2015, 1.01 PM UTC and will end on Jan 5th 2016, 12.59 PM UTCIt will be much longer and much more complex than the previous one, featuring brand new mechanics for you to enjoy. Let’s start with a general explanation of how this and future Events will work:
* You will be able to unlock multiple Feats, a special kind of secret trophies which can only be unlocked during their respective Event. Feats may have any kind of requirement and you will have to discover what you need to do by yourself.
* When an Event starts, you will be assigned several Quests. Quests are missions that, just like Feats, can be completed only during their respective Event, but they are only based on event-specific mechanics and you will know exactly what you have to do. Also unlike Feats, completing Quest stages will award a permanent bonus which will stack with Quest bonuses from future Events, so players who participate in all our Events will be rewarded with a greater cumulative bonus.
* You’ll be able to check and manage all your Event-related stuff in the new Events panel, within the Trophy tab.

As for the Christmas Event specifically, you will be able to collect **Snowballs** and **Christmas Presents**.

* Snowballs are a new special currency which will allow you to purchase Christmas upgrades and complete Christmas Feats and Quests. They will appear on a random location of the game screen and you simply have to click to collect them, then wait for another Snowball to appear. Or, you can let them grow bigger over time if you are idle or offline – up to a maximum size of 360 Snowballs!
* Christmas Presents are instead awarded once per day during the Event and contain a surprise for you :). They will also be involved in Feats and Quests, so make sure to check in regularly for not missing them!

Starting from 26th 1:01 PM UTC to 30th 12:59 PM UTC (click on the links to see the time in your timezone) we will run a Thanksgiving Event, first of its kind in Realm Grinder!

Given that it’s the first Season Event we ever introduce in the game, we are still trying and evaluating how to work things out to give the best possible experience to the players. This time, it will be extremely simple both in requirements and content, but it will still be enjoyable and useful for those who love our game and wish to participate in its growth.The main features of the event will be a new trophy for everyone who logs in during the season and a Shop Sale with these discounts:
* 50% discount on Gift of the Heroes.
* 25% discount on all Timewarps and Gem Conversion.

The trophy will also unlock a new unique upgrade which will increase your production by 25%, but only for the duration of the Thanksgiving Season.
In the future, event mechanics and quality will be greatly improved as we have always did with every feature of the game. We have plans to add a specific panel for event-based Feats, separated from the trophy list, and all of them will unlock specific features related to their respective event. Players who miss this event will not be hindered in their progress as soon as the event is over.
>We hope you will have fun enjoy Realm Grinding more than ever :)

## Misc

### [[3]] vs Idle vs Active Play & [[4]]

First and foremost, we find that the difference between offline and active is not much one of playstyle, but a faction balance issue. All the comparisons were made between druids’ triplecast and offline mode – obviously the difference is huge. However, when you compare it to other factions, suddenly it looks much more balanced, although still a bit off. That is the reason behind the recent druid nerf. You will find that druids are still quite strong, now they are just a bit more in line with the alternatives. The introduction of Priority and Contingency autocasting should also help reducing the gap between idle and active play, the latter being still the most powerful playstyle as we always intended it to be.We also have more plans to balance offline and online production – they will be carried on to the next expansion, which will include another batch of prestige factions, this time stacking unto already existing factions, maintaining their existing bonuses while adding much more powerful unique upgrades. The endgame will be developed much more than the previous expansion with even more compelling replayability options.
We will keep adding upgrades and trophies periodically as we have always done and keep an eye on the status of game balancing while listening to our community. We will always be open to both praise and criticism and we are reading your feedback and suggestions regularly – keep up the good work!
**A final note about autoclickers**
>We have recently read some complaints about them, however we still feel that the decision is ultimately taken by each player individually, as long as they know that we didn’t and will never balance the game around hundreds or thousands clicks per second, therefore it will feel much shorter and much less balanced than intended.
