Treasure Hunting coming to Go-Go Town!

Hello Mayors!

Wanted to do a little dive into a new mechanic that we're introducing with 1.0: Treasure Hunting! You'll be able to find bugs, gems, fossils, artifacts, and more all around your town (and hidden in the outer zones as well), and display them around your town.

Here's how it'll work: as you're walking around town, you may see a new kind of fishing spot, an artifact trove, a treasure node, or bugs wandering around, and you'll be able to interact with it (provided you've brought the right tool!)

Then you'll have a beautiful animation where you triumphantly show off your find...

From there, head to the Town Hall. This is a new building that will come with 1.0, and it's also where you'll come to get rewards from challenges. But inside, there's a new troll named Arizona Smythe III and a few displays. You can display your finds in aquariums, bug stands, plinths, and if you want more, head to the vending machine in the back: you'll be able to purchase more with EGO.

And what about Arizona? They're there to take extras off your hand—so if you've found one too many Forest Woodies, you can sell them to them and they'll... handle it. Don't ask questions!

This interior can be decorated with all the tools and décor that you have for your home, and expanded to boot, so go nuts. And of course—these displays can be placed outdoors as well!

Your phone will track what you've found, as well as the number of things you have left to find. As to where to find them? We'll just have to wait for intrepid players like you to add them to our Wiki when the time is right!

And of course... make sure you look in the external zones as well. Critters and things to dig up are hiding across all the maps, so make good use of that Fast Travel!

Make sure to check out all the zones to find all the critters and treasure you can

This is one of the things we're so excited about with 1.0, and hope you all are as well!

cheers,

Emily & the Prideful Sloth team
