V2.5.0 (8255)

20.03.2026: Server-side bug fix:
points for artifact deposits were not being added correctly.

New Game Element: Artifacts

  • Artifacts are rare items hidden at secret locations all around the globe.
  • Artifacts can be located, uncovered and recovered using Artifact Detectors and Archaeologists.
  • The special building "Archaeological Center" must be unlocked first. Once unlocked, a new button appears on the scanner page. Tapping it triggers an artifact scan and consumes one Artifact Detector.
  • Scans always originate from the player's current position. If an artifact is detected, a scan cone appears on the map – a colored angular area within which the artifact is located. The closer you get, the narrower the cone becomes. The artifact itself remains hidden.
  • Only within a certain range does the artifact appear as a symbol on the map and become recoverable. This range can be extended by upgrading the Archaeological Center.
  • Between 1 and 100 Archaeologists can be deployed for recovery. With a great deal of luck, a single Archaeologist may be enough. 100 Archaeologists guarantee recovery.
  • An uncovered artifact can be seen by all players with an unlocked Archaeological Center and recovered within the usual loot range – but only once per player (same as crates).
  • Uncovered artifacts cannot be recovered using Drones or Trucks.
  • Recovered artifacts are stored in the warehouse and can be traded or redeemed on the new Artifacts page (amphora icon in the navigation bar). Redeeming consumes the artifacts and unlocks bonuses depending on quantity.
