- In-Game Tip

This page covers receiving event gift boxes and gold stars, and opening those gift boxes using the gold stars.

## Receiving Event Gift Boxes

When an event is going on, you will have gift boxes that show up on your City map. These boxes show up

* The first time you log into the game after midnight (typically 5)
* After clicking on the chest that appears over the Curiosity Shop once every 24 hours (typically 3-5)
* Every time you explore the current event location (typically 2-3)

As you collect these boxes, they go into the chest that is in front of the Curiosity Shop. Once you have 100 gift boxes inside the chest, gift boxes will stop appearing on the map. You might receive an event gift box as a gift from a friend or as the "thank you" gift for something you have sent to a friend. These gift boxes will go into the chest even if you already have 100 gift boxes in there.

You can open these gift boxes with gold stars. The event gift boxes do not carry over to the next event.

Sample Giftboxes

## Accumulating Gold Stars

You will receive gold stars:

* Every time you explore the current event location
* Every time you play one of the current event mini-games
* As prizes from various totems
* As rewards from assembling the event specific collections
* As rewards for completing some event tasks

You need **12 gold stars** to open one gift box. The event gold stars do not carry over to the next event.

Occasionally, the stars are a different color than gold, such as purple.

## Opening Event Gift Boxes

Whenever you have enough gold stars you can open gift boxes. To open the gift boxes, click on the chest in front of the Curiosity Shop.

For 1000 opened boxes, you will receive 52 collection items, 300 assemblers, 40 tools and 73 weapons against monsters. (Note: the boxes that show assemblers when opened give you three assemblers of that specific assembler and this is the reason why the assemblers received are more than opened boxes.)

The first 200 boxes give you plenty of items. Every single one of them has a useful item, sometimes more than one. After opening 500 boxes, you will eventually get down to gift boxes giving only a small amount of energy and coins.

Since the gold stars do not carry over to the next event, you might as well use them all up before the end of the event.

## Between Events

It is pointless to send gift boxes to your friends during a period where there is not an active event. The Curiosity Shop Wagon and chest are left there for decoration purposes only and are not clickable. The gift boxes also do not carry over to the new event. Instead look at a friend's wishlist before deciding what to send them. If empty, send an artifact assembler or nothing at all and move on to the next friend.

If you receive a gift box from a friend or as a thank-you during a period where there is not an active event, that gift box will disappear in the fog.
