Events
Hogmanay 12/31 - 1/7
This week is our Hogmanay Event!
Hogmanay is the Scottish word for 'the last day of the year,' and is a celebration of the New Year that extends through Scotland’s banking holiday on January 2nd. As one of Scotland’s best-known traditions, Hogmanay is believed to originate from the Norse Viking observance of the winter solstice and has customs stemming from the Gaelic celebration of Samhain. To ensure good luck in the New Year, the famous tradition of 'first-footing,' the first foot to cross the threshold of a home after midnight on the first day of the New Year, needs to be a dark male that brings with him symbolic pieces of coal, salt, shortbread, a black bun, and whisky. It would be considered bad luck, for a tall blonde male (symbolic of Viking men) to be the first to cross the threshold of one’s home!
Enjoy these discounts for a limited time!

Wilderness Survival 12/31 - 1/14
Quickly build and expand your city during the Wilderness Survival event!
In April 1940, During the World War II Norwegian Campaign, a German Heinkel He 111 bomber was shot down by a British Blackburn Skua. The Blackburn Skua crash-landed soon after.
The surviving crew of both planes were surrounded by wilderness and eventually both made their way to an old reindeer hunting cabin. The language barrier made communication difficult. Despite this, Captain R.T. Partridge, pilot of the Skua, suggested that the Germans stay in the cabin and the British would look elsewhere. Soon after departing the cabin, Partridge’s crew found the Grotli Hotel, which was closed for the winter but provided shelter.
Lieutenant Horst Schopis and the surviving crew of the German bomber arrived at the hotel the next morning where all survivors shared breakfast.
The two crews later found a Norwegian ski patrol. Schopis and the other German survivor were taken into custody to be turned over to the British as POWs. Partridge’s crew was set free and hiked to Alesund, eventually traveling to Andelsnes to get transport back to England.
For the duration of the event, Farms, Caravans, and Oil Wells will produce:

King Tut’s Tomb 1/2 - 1/9
In 1922, archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the entrance to the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings. The tomb had been lost for centuries, preserving a massive trove of ancient artifacts. Along with the famous funerary mask and solid gold coffin, Carter’s team found thrones, weapons, musical instruments, jewelry, an alabaster chalice, and a dagger made of meteoric iron. This massive collection of artifacts still travels the world as a museum exhibition and has ensured King Tut’s place in history!
