Whew, I almost missed the right jump point -- I come from the fuuuuutureeee wanting to discuss FLOWER WEEK! How was everyone's experience? Did you sneeze a bunch? Did you get a pretty bouquet of flowers for me?! You shouldn't have! I have some important business to attend to... I was told that you guys reeeaaalllllyyy wanted to know who was stomping all over our flowers!
First, a big thank you to all of the players who participated during Flower Week here on VMKL! We are happy to report that flowers are growing regularly in the kingdom again—thanks to your help!
Before we reveal the culprit behind the thievery of our precious flowers, we wanted to share some of our favorite guesses from Task 5 — The Hunt for the Flower Stomper!
First, we love the creative reasoning leading to an almost Rube Goldberg style revenge plot:
“I suspect that Mr Toad rode his Motor Car over most of the flower fields, angering the Raging Bull, who chased after him, thus killing even more flowers. At the edge of the field was Ursula, who orchestrated all of this, wreaking havoc as she always does, just because she can!”
The thoughtfulness of this player thinking about the healing and good that could be found among the stomped flowers just warmed our hearts:
“I found Pocahontas lingering by the flower fields, trying to heal the trampled blooms — not stomp them. Her presence shows that someone else had already done the damage. Then, I stumbled upon Captain America's Shield, suspiciously lying in a bed of crushed daisies. A symbol of defense turned into collateral damage — meaning a battle had taken place, but not by Cap himself. And finally, the real giveaway for me: Miss Minutes. Who better to meddle with delicate timelines — and delicate tulips — than a mischievous clock with access to every second? She sped up time, letting the flowers wither and collapse under a gust of stolen moments. No footprints needed when you can commit crimes with time!
Time's up, Miss Minutes!!”
Thinking about Miss Minutes and Captain America brought that player even closer to the real culprit… which only one player guessed exactly correct based on the evidence that was placed:
“Suspect: Baby Groot. These are the only three Marvel themed items in the room; every other grouping of characters and items that exist in the same movie/universe range from one to five items, but never three. Plus it's fun to imagine little baby Groot stealing Cap's shield and running around causing chaos with Miss Minutes.”
That’s right! It was Groot all along! Congratulations to all the players who guessed Groot, and a super big congratulations to MagicMasterAli for being the only player to guess Groot AND pick the other two items of evidence that were planted to guide you to him!
Groot was just a bit early to the start of an exciting and heroic month of Marvel!
Which brings me to say...
WELCOME TO MAYVEL! ITS MAY. ITS MARVEL. ITS MAYVEL! We're gonna be having the toughest of conversations this month: chronological or release order? Who is the strongest avenger? (and why is it the Scarlet Witch? huh? who said that?). We know the world of Marvel is something you all have been excited for, so we are looking forward to all the fun we have planned this festival!
I must say, Groot really had you all guessing! It made for a really special prelude to all the Marvel fun headed your way. Hope you're ready! See you all for the next edition! This gal needs to speak with her talent agent to see about getting a certain dalmatian a starring role in the MCU!
Pawfully yours,
Perdita
Are you ready for the most SUPER shop releases? Stay tuned for special weekend releases during this Festival!
What special treasures will you pull from the stone? A new round of prizes will be in the stone until the festival ends.
GET_Togethers are events that are hosted in our Discord server by the Guest Experience Team. These events may be anything from puzzles to word searches to scavenger hunts and will take place a minimum of twice per month. GET_Togethers are a way for us to come together and have some fun with the community, and that’s not all! You, the community, will have a part in deciding our activities! Either a Discord announcement or the last newsletter of the month will contain a link to a survey that every player can participate in to choose either the activity, the theme of the activity, or the materials for the upcoming month’s activity. Each player that completes the survey will receive 2000 credits, regardless of if they attend the event or not. Attending the event for the required timeframes as outlined at the time of the event will result in an exclusive prize which will only be available for that month.
The voting form for May's GET_Together events is now open!
The form can be located HERE!
Pssssssst are you paying attention? If you are: react to the "Newsletter #1" discord announcement message with a 🚀 emoji in our server for 2,000 credits! You have until the game closes on 5/2!
Stay tuned for fun MAYVEL activities all throughout the festival... now if I could just find the right universe (or maybe it was a different timeline...?)

VMK Legacy introduced 'The Legacy Contributor' program in efforts to give talented guests a way to contribute to the magic! We realize there are many players who have significant nostalgia related to the CL program, so we plan to expand the scope of our LC program to allow for players to contribute in ways that do not require digital art or graphic design skills in the future. At this time our program is not accepting applications as the program is being reimagined!
