QUALITY OF LIFE CHANGES

Why do we rebalance the game? Disney Magic Kingdoms is a game with many interconnected systems. Since our initial launch, we have added a lot of new features and content, and each time we do this, it can significantly affect how these systems interact with each other. To ensure that the gameplay experience remains as intended, we are sometimes required to make balancing changes. Ultimately, rebalancing the game is necessary so that Disney Magic Kingdoms is fun and enjoyable for all. Thank you for your patience and understanding!

• Halloween Park Theme – The park gets a scare-tacular makeover to celebrate Halloween!

BALANCING CHANGES

SEASONS

This update changes to the Season System are tackling four main areas: a continuation of tweaks to the goals of some of the Daily and Weekly Tasks, a first pass of changes to the Event Tasks goals and finally a first look at the value of the Happiness rewards. All of those aim to keep moving towards a more accessible Season Pass system overall, while maintaining its function as a way to break the routine week after week through some healthy challenges.

Daily Tasks

We're tweaking both the Elixir creation task and the Chest task. The first one receives an increase from 4 to 5 items to put into the Cauldron, we hope here that this will ease things up by allowing the use of the 'times 5' multiplier when dragging items in the Cauldron ; the second one sees its goal reduced from 10 Chests a day to 8 Chests a day, which should motivate more players to look for Chests in park, events and ads while easing the burden on those already solidly engaged with the system.

The following Daily Tasks have been tweaked:

"Convert X items into Elixir using Merlin's Cauldron":

• Goal changed from 4 to 5

"Open X Chests":

• Goal changed from 10 to 8

Weekly Tasks

The wider set of changes we made so far to Weekly Tasks have been going in the right direction and as we keep monitoring their performance, we will add some more targeted tweaks to smaller sets of Tasks when we feel they're required. Here is one of those smaller scale changes aimed at some Activities Tasks, the Magic production Tasks and the Silver Chests Tasks.

The following Weekly Tasks have been adjusted:

"Complete X Activities of 2 hours or more":

• Goal changed from 55/95/130/170/205 to 50/85/115/150/185 Activities

"Complete X Activities of 4 hours or more":

• Goal changed from 45/75/105/135/165 to 40/65/90/115/145 Activities

"Complete X Activities of 6 hours or more":

• Goal changed from 35/55/80/100/125 to 30/45/65/85/100 Activities

"Complete X Activities of 8 hours or more":

• Goal changed from 25/40/55/70/85 to 20/30/40/50/60 Activities

"Complete X Activities of 12 hours or more":

• Goal changed from 10/18/26/34/42 to 6/9/13/17/21 Activities

"Gather X Magic from Attraction_A, Attraction_B or Attraction_C”:

• Goal changed from 550/900/1265/1625/1995 to 405/675/945/1215/1485 Magic

"Gather Magic X Times from Attraction_A, Attraction_B or Attraction_C":

• Goal changed from 6/10/14/18/22 to 4/7/10/13/16 Times

“Open X Silver Chests":

• Goal changed from 10/14/18/22/26 to 6/10/14/18/22 Chests

Event Tasks

Event Tasks have been left alone while we were tackling the Daily and Weekly versions of the Tasks but it's now time to look into them and make them more accessible as well, starting with some that will be available during this update.

The following Event Tasks have been adjusted:

"Gather X Event Currency":

• During Mini Events, the goal has been decreased from 20,000 to 15,000 Event Currency

"Complete X Event Quests":

• During Mini Events, the goal has been changed from 10/15 to 5/10 Quests

Happinness Sources

On top of the Event Tasks, we also started to look at the repartition of Happiness over the course of a Season. We have a first set of adjustments we want to test that will trickle in with this update, giving an extra boost to all players across the board when it comes to completing the pass.

The following Happiness sources have seen their Happiness slightly increased:

• Daily Login Calendar: Happiness allocation increased from 975 per Season to 1,950 per Season
• Miscellaneous (update gifts etc): Happiness allocation increased from 750 per Season to 1,500 per Season
• Time-Limited Events (Tappers, Tier-2 Tappers etc): Happiness allocation increased from 6,000 per Season to 7,500 per Season
