To mark the Halloween season, The Sandbox is launching a 'Haunted Mansion' experience on October 31. In this event, players are placed inside a mysterious, ever-changing mansion where they must search for keys, unlock doors, and find their way out. Each playthrough presents a different layout, with shifting escape routes and hidden secrets. Adding to the suspense, an ominous presence roams the halls, creating a tense and unpredictable environment.
Alongside the new experience, a 24-hour 'Halloween Social Challenge' will take place on the same day. Players can capture in-game photos with monsters and share them through the 'Alpha Season 6' link page. For this limited period, rewards will be increased to 100 EP, offering participants enhanced incentives for engagement.
In addition, 'Owner Rewards' will transition to a seasonal distribution model, beginning with a special Halloween drop. Eligible "Avatar Owners will receive a Haunted Lantern, while LAND Owners will receive a Haunted Tree." Additionally, The Sandbox remains free to play on PC and Mac, providing users with access to this seasonal gaming experience.
