Game Hunt: Holiday Edition
Game Hunt returns, for a spectacular reason in a spectacular season! The elves are worried sick about getting enough Christmas cheer, so they visited their monster friends at the Monster's Inc factory. With a little persuasion, the elves were able to take over the Laugh Floor and are going to use it to gather enough laughter energy to bring back cheer. You can aid in the elves newest pursuit by sneaking into the factory through a door! Friends who are able to help charge up the cheer with their laughter will be awarded Sulley Horns. Read on to see how you can help these holly jolly elves.
The Game Hunt will encompass the entire kingdom, meaning the teleporter can be placed within any public room on VMK Legacy. Hop from room to room looking for a Monsterās Inc. Teleporter, trying to sneak your way into the Monsterās Inc. factory. Once one player enters the teleporter, it will disappear and move to a different location within the kingdom. The teleporter will lead to the HOST event, where you will participate in a game to win a grand prize or consolation prize.
Once twelve players enter the hidden teleporter, the event in the HOST room will start. The hidden teleporter will continue to be placed during this time and entering the teleporter will put you into the queue for the HOST room. Being in queue for the HOST room will guarantee that you enter the game room. Please do not keep searching for teleporters while you are in the queue.
The event will run for the duration of 5 rounds. A round consists of 12 players participating in the event in the HOST room. You can continue to search for the hidden teleporter until a game alert is sent out announcing the end of the entire Game Hunt event.
The grand prize for this event is a pair of Sulley Horns! The consolation prize is Presents - Monster's Inc. You can only win a grand prize twice per event. If you win twice during the Game Hunt event, you will be asked to stop participating for the rest of the event duration.
