The recent Pixels 2.5 update has generated a wave of mixed opinions among the community. From praise to harsh criticism, the update has redefined the meta in several aspects of the game. In this article, you will find an in-depth analysis of the most significant changes and the summary of today's AMA on October 23.

Key Takeaways from the AMA

• One of the most notable changes is the introduction of the Task Board V2. This new version aims to offer a more balanced and rewarding gameplay experience, but it has generated some controversy. While more items have been added and the distribution of tasks has been improved, some players feel that progression has become slower and the rewards are not as attractive as before. (Just in the reset on October 23, the task board failed asking for exaggerated amounts of some items)

• The reputation system feels complex and the lack of detailed information on how it works has caused some confusion among players. As more partners join the Pixels ecosystem, reputation will become a key factor in accessing new opportunities and benefits.

• The energy system will change even more with the specific update for the wine cellar that is expected to arrive next week. In addition, Luke and Heidi assure that the changes in the cooking mechanics have turned this activity into a way to save energy for the future. However, some players feel that cooking has become too tedious and that the number of steps necessary to make certain items is excessive.

• High levels and high rewards are the stats that are being looked at. We should analyze what is happening in the TB every day, then adjust the task board over time. Also, we are looking at the possibility of bringing back animal care tasks.

• We are working on having the NFT Land Winery updates coming next week. Wine Cellars may be given out as event rewards in the future.

• Industry limits, new Gacha mechanics for coins, and merchant ships are things that are being worked on in the game. Recipe rebalances, Guild Wars 2, boosters, etc.

Halloween Event

To participate in this event, players must go to the part of the castle where the first stage of the guilds was explored (follow the path to the right in Terra Villa). Just outside the castle, you will find Barney´s. When you click on him, he will activate the Barney's Bat-ch Catch mission. This consists of catching 3 bats every day that will appear in various places. This event will last 9 days, during which a total of 27 bats must be caught to receive a special seasonal reward.

Now, inside the castle:

Once you enter the castle, the Deranged Dental Exchange mission will be activated, which to complete, you need to make a minimum investment of 13 pixels to buy the mallet sold by the dentist waiting for you in the lobby. Please note the following:

• On the left chair, you can buy the mallet=13 pixels and a box to obtain a themed skin=66 Pixels
• On the right chair, you can exchange the teeth that you get by smashing heads.
• The 4 items that you get from the teeth must be collected in their entirety to craft Ump-O-Lantern on the left side with Ouiji.
• The Ump-O-Lantern pumpkin must be placed on the stand in front of Stu, where it will be smashed with the mallet and a reward will be obtained.
• At the top of the castle, you will find the starting and playing area, where you must smash the skull heads to accumulate points, each point equals a tooth. It is similar to the game that came out of Valentine's Day or the pumpkin game at Carnival.
• Be careful which head you smash, those with red eyes take away a point.
• You can start the game every 8 hours.

Binance Blockchain Week Event

In this event, you can get one of three decorations as a reward. To participate, just go to the Terra Villa hub and go up a bit, there you will find a Binance-themed space and a portal to the Binance Arena, there you just have to do the following:

• Enter the building
• Talk to Heidi, she will activate the mission that consists of collecting 7 items that will be delivered by the NPCs that are in the different stands. (Click on the NPCs, not on the tables)
• Once you have collected the items, talk to Heidi again, who will exchange them for 3 PixTips.
• Click on the portal that appears next to Heidi's stand to return.
• These PixTips can be exchanged at the truck found in the Terra Villa hub for any of these decorations: Binance Coinhead (a head for the avatar, must be put in the closet), Binance Trophy (a decoration for the garden) and Binance Blanket (a blanket for the bed)
• All players who participate in the event will have the opportunity to participate to win an NFT LAND, so good luck to everyone.

See you in Terra Villa!
