Events

**Cat Snack Bar** has regular **Events** to serve as new content. There are two main types of Events: **Island Travel Event** and **Peak Time Challenge** as well as monthly special events. Peak Time Challenge runs in between Island Travel Events that start every Thursday.

Players only gain access to events after unlocking the Kneading Speed Up upgrade in the Drivethrough stage (Area 1, Stage 6).

Completing Island Travel Events will also reward a Special Customer to your collection. These customers will visit your main restaurant and have special bonuses like extra tips.

## Event Structure

The Island Travel Event map functions like a normal game area, with multiple stages. In order to unlock the next stage, the player must first finish all the missions of their current stage. When they finish the last mission, the player will automatically be locked out of the stage and will not be able to return to the previous stage for the duration of the current event period.

After the event ends, the missions get reset and players will begin anew on the next event period. This means that even if they are stuck on a mission, the next event period gives them a chance to re-earn the rewards they had already earned previously and possibly progress further.

Event missions reward gems and suitcases. Each event period also comes with a premium mission reward table, which must be unlocked **PER EVENT PERIOD** by purchasing the $9.99 premium pass. The premium rewards are usually double the gems of the normal rewards, or an increase in rarity on the normal suitcase rewards. The premium pass can also give a special rarity costume reward for the last mission.

Events also come with a Soft Event Support Pack for $4.99 which gives 600 gems and 5 event suitcases, and 5 special hire worker cats. These special workers can either be hired ("part time") for 5 minutes at a time using an ad, or purchased ("full time") for $1.99 for each individual cat.

Importantly, the "full time" worker only applies to the **current event period**.

While the player is on the event stage screen, their main stage will collect offline income and vice versa.

Note: Worktops in events reward their usual bonuses for hitting milestones but will not give gems.

## Event Tips

Island Travel Events are intentionally difficult, so if you're struggling, focus more on your main stage progress. Earn gems to purchase merchandise and open suitcases for costumes. The bonuses from merchandise and costumes are the most important advantages that you can carry over into events.

Instead of aiming for missions, which often ask for high levels of low-earning worktops, it's usually easier to focus on improving your top performing worktops until the level needed for the mission becomes trivial. Your goal should always be to maximize profits for the first few days of the event. On the last day, you can then get as far through the missions as you can.

Don't stress about not getting through the whole event. Remember that you'll be able to repeatedly earn rewards, which will improve your merchandise and costume levels. Patience is key for any idle game!
