Guide / Events
Something happens on the island about every hour, with smaller events in between. When one starts, a banner tells everyone on your server.
Sat, Oct 24, 12:00 PM EDT to Sat, Nov 7, 12:00 PM EST. The candy shop stays open 48 hours longer so you can spend what's left.
At night the island turns amber: a huge moon, Pumpkin Lanterns at five landmarks, and Moonstruck dinos roaming. Earn Moon Candy and spend it on the Moon Track and in the event shop. No paid luck, and the end date is the real end date.

You can earn up to 600 candy per day. The day resets at 00:00 UTC (8 PM Eastern).
Every so often a Rare Rush starts on every server at once. A banner says "RARE RUSH!" and a pill shows the time left. While it's on, rare variants like Alpha and Rainbow dinos are more likely to spawn (normally ×2 for 5 minutes), and when anyone finds one, the whole server is told.
It's free: there's nothing to buy. During the Amber Moon's quiet night hours, a Rush waits until afterward.
