Town events are random occurrences between expeditions. Some are free boons, some are traps for your gold.
Why this matters
Handled well, events accelerate the whole town. Handled badly, they waste gold and stress heroes.
Step-by-step
- Read every event before choosing.
- Take events that boost the town or heroes.
- Avoid events that gamble large gold sums.
- Resolve events before launching the next run.
- Take stress-relief events when heroes are tired.
- Skip events that risk permanent losses.
- Check events after every expedition.
Tips
- Free boons are always worth taking
- Gold gambles rarely pay off
- Stress-relief events save provisions
- Some events can kill heroes — read carefully
Common mistakes
- Clicking through events blindly
- Gambling gold you need for upgrades
- Ignoring events entirely
- Taking risky events with a thin roster
Practical notes
Town events shift prices and quests, so read them before spending. Some events gate building upgrades behind deeds. Stack heirlooms ahead of a building event. A prepared town leverages the bonus. Stock heirlooms before building events arrive.
Some events gate building upgrades behind deeds or specific heirloom types, so stock those ahead of time. Prioritize the events that discount the Sanitarium or the Stage Coach, since those help every run.
