Birthday Special features
– All associations start the round with 25 member slots.
– Players who select the recommended city during avatar creation will receive 200 Gold (double reward compared to normal game worlds).
– All players start the round with 1,000 free Gold, and buying Gold directly is not possible. Instead, seven separate bundles will be available in the Gold Shop on the browser version only: one bundle per each era and one in the endgame. Each bundle has three different offers that contain the Plus Account, bonus engines and vouchers, from which you can purchase only one offer per bundle at a time.
– You can enjoy the birthday-themed production series (skin) for the “Red Kite” train and the anniversary avatar items, given to all players as a gift. All you have to do is create your avatar on any of the Birthday Special game worlds and play there.
– Get free gifts as you play! You can receive a random gift for random game actions such as: collecting trainspotters, buying or servicing trains, investing in industries, using your research points, placing auction bids, upgrading trains, using boosts, watching videos, etc. The rewards include different sums of Gold (up to 100 Gold), the Plus Account or a voucher to fill up your research points. You can win a maximum of 10 gifts per day and keep track of your gifts in the overview menu. Sitters can collect the random birthday gifts for the players they sit for, and the presents are added to the avatar subject to sitting.
– We are introducing the “Fill up bank account” voucher that will allow you to fill up your bank account to the actual limit. This voucher is a possible birthday gift, and it’s also part of the “Deluxe” offers in the bundles from the Gold Shop.
– The “Power Bonus” voucher can now be won by watching the second video in the train station.
– The rewards for trainspotters are higher now, and you have a greater chance of getting a free lottery ticket from collecting building bonuses in the train station. Moreover, the chance to win better prizes from the login bonus is now also higher.
