Game Update
Sabine’s Challenge
Hey Starfam! Jorvegians far and wide have come to participate in the Equestrian Festival, but there are two in particular you need to impress!
Rise to Sabine's Challenge
Hold onto your saddles because Sabine just unleashed a whole new, even more challenging course in Moorland for those brave enough to tackle it. But hey, no pressure - unless you're too chicken, which, let's face it, Sabine thinks you are!
Impress the Baroness
The Baroness has heard all about the legendary Equestrian Festival, and guess what, she’s made time on her busy schedule to join! But hold your horses, because the Baroness isn't just showing up for a leisurely visit. She’s keeping a close eye on the festival participants and giving them a chance to snag a Prestigious Ribbon.
Once the Baroness decides you're the real deal, she’ll reward you with the ultimate prize—the Prestigious Ribbon and a fancy pet cat.
The Red String Trail Ride
To symbolize the unbreakable bond between friends or a rider and their horse, it’s tradition to follow a trail up in the Firgrove mountains and tie a red string at the end. This tradition is known as the Red String Trail Ride and is a celebrated event amongst Jorvegian riders!
Talk to Tan at the festival grounds in Moorland if you would like an intro to this beloved tradition. You’ll find fast transport between the trail in Firgrove and the festival grounds. Then you can sign up at the trail ride board to get a red string, and finish the ride by tying the string at the end of the trail!
As the Red String Trail Ride is a huge hit, you will not be the only one making the journey to the end of the trail. Anything could happen along the way! If you start the trail as a group, it's likely you will all get to experience the same surprises! You'll earn some XP for your horse and Spring Tokens upon reaching the top and tying up your red string. This is a journey you'll want to experience several times for sure and you can return daily for rewards.
The Red String Trail Ride will be active for the remainder of the festival. This is exclusive for Star Riders!
Herding
Scott Buttergood has arrived at the Equestrian Festival with some farm animals, but is failing spectacularly at keeping watch over them. Help him out by herding them back to their pen! Find him at the main festival grounds in Moorland to give him a hand.
Other Updates!
We’ve given a little makeover to the Horse Trainer and Riding Club Grand Master. They’ve gotten a brand-new look and updated UI.
We’re slowly removing the “stay overnight” feature. You won’t need to pay a Star Coin fee or wait a day to continue playing time-locked quests. Today we removed this feature from a new batch of quests!
We’re testing a new button that only select players will be able to see! This is a Horse Shop button that will appear next to the Global Shop.
The daily races at Jorvik Stables are now replayable! Play as many times as you want and get rewarded.
Coming NEXT WEEK!
Have you mastered your dressage routine? The loop-de-loop routine will put those skills to the test.
Enjoy the spirit of competition!
