New event, A Midsummer Sprite's Dream ([https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?105538 Official Forum Topic]) looks like it will be awarding fairies as walkers. Puck is the reward from Goal 5. Additional fairy citizens are also for sale in the Town Square.

{{Craftingnav}}
A [[Weekend Warrior|WeekDAY Warrior]] has started! It's not nearly as exciting nowadays, when we can't use it to get a ton of event materials. As previously, the time window will end before the new release tomorrow. Is it still worth jumping through hoops for the Baron to get 20 minutes of unlimited energy? It's up to you. If needed, our [[Weekend Warrior|Weekend Warrior Guide]] has the details.

[https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?105725-Castle-Story-8-16-update-thread-name The Scholar's Wedding (forum topic)] is the new event. It will last 14 days.
   
  +
Looks like there will be a tasty drop from one rare prize! The Ornery Goat pet, presumably '''rare''', has a '''''chance''''' to drop [[Expansion Permit]]s!
The current Leaderboard/Monster Hunt event ends in 4 days.
 
   
  +
Collection progress prizes include [[Crowns]], a cute white goat, and a walker, Agnes. Community prizes will be the pretty Stargazer's Fence, Stargazer's Arch, and Stargazer's Tower. The last three decor items are also being sold in the Market for [[Gems]].
The Wiki guide for the [[Monster Hunt]] is progressing. The [[Trade Wagon]] article is fleshed out, and the [[Mythic Research Center]] article has been sketched in.
 
   
  +
Given past experiences, we can expect a [[Weekend Warrior|Weekday Warrior]] some hours after this event, which will end the next day before a new release. It will be a good time to rebuild your stocks.
Any help on these, and on monster hunt items and buildings, is greatly appreciated. The [[Cabbage Hut]] really needs explaining, as does the new Wizard's Portal.
 
   
==25 July 2018==
 
The Beastmaster/Monster Hunt event ([https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?105402-Castle-Story-7-23-Monster-Hunt-season-13-(all-info-goals-inventory-on-page-1) Official Forum Topic]) is on its' third day.
 
   
 
==11 July 2018==
[[File:Castlestory-lioneventgoals.jpg|thumb]]The Beastmaster event has the end goal of a Lion pet.
 
   
 
Note that '''[[The Search for Sabina Questline]]''' is a permanent part of the game, so you can pursue it at your leisure. [[Wisp Lantern]]s become a bigger issue as well as [[Expansion Permit]]s and cash, so it will be a long ride.
   
   
[[File:Castlestory-lionleaderboardprizes.jpg|thumb]]In the Leaderboard activity, everyone gets something but the top two winners will receive a Lion walker. If some people are so far ahead you can't catch up, don't let it take over your thoughts. Let it go. The walker prize doesn't have to mean anything to you unless you let it. Enjoy the game.

[[Expired Game News]] has moved to a separate page.
Regarding the Monster Hunt '''([https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?95433-Castle-Story-Monster-Hunts-Gold-Troll-tokens-How-it-works&p=1366336 Official Monster Hunt GUIDE in forum])''', the Lion spawn also gives tokens for use at the all-important [[Trade Wagon]]. The Lions spawn from cows and pigs.
 
 
Players should focus on the Monster Hunt: [[Purple Golem]]s from horses, [[Blue Dire Boar]]s from a dead tree, and whatever else is encountered. Per the forum it's not worthwhile to chase [[Fangbeast]]s for the Novice challenge.
 
 
Note that your quest goals will waste tokens. The [[Ruler's Amulet]] is a dead end, and [[Princess Lorelei's Fountain]] is pretty but not as important as the [[Mythic Research Center]] (craft animals that drop energy and other delights) or the [[Cabbage Hut]] (beat the Baron at his own game, win prizes that drop valuables.) You do have to make one trade in order to see the advanced items, though.
 
 
 
==22 July 2018==
 
 
[[File:Comingsoon_Lion.png|thumb]]
 
Meadow Wolf and Fabled Fawnicorn have come to an exhausting end. The teaser screen for tomorrow's event is to the right. According to Storm8 staff in forum, this will be a "Beast Master/Monster Hunt" event.
 
 
A [[Monster Hunt]] (wiki guide in work) is a GREAT event, allowing you to earn tokens to purchase things at the [[Trade Wagon]]! That [[Cabbage Hut]], or [[Mythic Research Center]], or [[Cooking Camp]] can be yours!! Storm8 says that new trades will also be released.
 
 
Get out your [[Horse]]s, your [[Princess Lorelei's Fountain]] (drops tokens during event), and whatever else you might need!
 
 
 
Weekend/Weekday Warrior has been noticeably absent during events the past two weeks. At the same time, Storm8 posted a sale bundle which included +20 minutes of unlimited energy. Some players '''speculate''' that it is meant to provide the Weekday Warrior experience, (without dealing with the Baron!), for a gem fee. Bottom line: there's nothing wrong with Storm8's business model. They gotta eat. Period.
 
 
==12 July 2018==
 
NEW: '''[[2018 July 12 - The Fabled Fawn and The Meadow Wolf]].'''
 
 
Or see the [https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?105295-Castle-Story-event-7-12-THE-MEADOW-WOLF Official Forum discussion topic].
 
 
You will probably want four [[Marketplace|Market Places]] for Chapter 1 of the storybook. You must visit 4 times, and the wait time is 22 hours! (Be sure to click on the quest in the Quest log before you begin, just in case.)
 
 
[[File:Storybook_deer.jpg|thumb]]The storybook is not in the Quest Log - it has an icon of deer faces toward the right-hand edge of your display.
 
 
 
''Another "[[Weekend Warrior|WeekDAY Warrior]]" 16-hour window that started around 7 pm PDT Wednesday (10 July) night ended as scheduled at 11 am PDT this morning, before the new event started.''
 
<!--Storm8 Forum Moderator SpiritWind0 states, "S8 has confirmed that Weekday/Weekend Warrior will continue. Its' scheduling is still being looked into."-->
 
 
 
==5 July 2018==
 
 
There are TWO new events.
 
 
The first is a new main storyline quest, [[The Search for Sabina Questline]] ''(wiki guide still in draft), ([https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?105193-Castle-Story-07-05-The-Search-for-Sabina Official Forum topic].) It requires level 20, [[Sabina's House]], and [[Thurston's Fort]].
 
 
The notes below are to help you prep and collect materials: they are not the quest steps.
 
 
Things to get out immediately: [[Watchtower| WATCHTOWERS]]. At a certain point you will need to search them, and the item is not a guaranteed drop. It's a 4-hour wait time, so be ready.
 
 
You will need for the first step: a total of 10 [[Wood]], 4 [[Syrup]], and 4 [[Enchanter's Essence]] to make 2 Root Beers in the [[Kitchen]]. The recipe will be at the bottom of the list, past Lemonade and such. Each takes 2 hours.
 
 
For the needed Adventure, the fast 2-hour Toadstool Forest one works. (Requires 1 [[Breaded Fish]], 10 [[Water]] and 10,000 [[Coins]].) The item is not a guaranteed drop, so you may have to go more than once, or even 4 times.
 
 
You will need to search [[Farmhouse]]s in the next step. You need to collect 10 arrows, so plan for the 10-minute wait times. Again, not a guaranteed drop.
 
 
You will need 10 sets of 10 [[Red Petal]]s, 20 [[White Petal]]s and 10 [[Water]]. Your 99 in storage isn't enough.
 
 
 
(The second, optional event expired 10 July. "Into the Wilds" was an ''''optional'''' rushed expansion to new area squares. If you completed this within 7 days, you got a wisp pet. A lot of lamps and cash were needed for these expansions. Completing the quest [[The Search for Sabina Pt. 1/4]] was also required. )
 
 
''Side note: There are new citizens for sale in the Town Square.''
 
 
 
 
The '''Seafoam Serenade''' event ([https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?105036-Castle-Story-6-21 forum topic].) has ended.
 
 
The '''Tell No Tales''' event [https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?104868-Castle-Story-06-07-name-something-about-Pirates&p=1520116 (forum topic)] has ended.

Collection progress prizes include Crowns, a cute white goat, and a walker, Agnes. Community prizes will be the pretty Stargazer's Fence, Stargazer's Arch, and Stargazer's Tower. The last three decor items are also being sold in the Market for Gems.

Note that The Search for Sabina Questline is a permanent part of the game, so you can pursue it at your leisure. Wisp Lanterns become a bigger issue as well as Expansion Permits and cash, so it will be a long ride.
