Season’s Greetings 2024

Season’s Greetings 2024

As the year draws to a close, we want to express our heartfelt gratitude to our incredible community for making this journey so memorable. Together, we've celebrated amazing milestones, including the outstanding success of Alpha Season 4! To honor this remarkable year, we’re thrilled to present Season’s Greetings 2024—a festive celebration brimming with thrilling challenges, fantastic rewards, and delightful surprises. 🌟

As a token of our appreciation for your dedication and support, Alpha Pass holders will enjoy access to an exclusive quest during the event. This is our way of saying thank you for being an integral part of our journey throughout the year.

The composition of the pool

For this event to celebrate the year 2024, sandbox offers different rewards via a mystery box. Mystery, mystery, what can we win ?

For all those who complete the objective, that is to say obtain 170 EP in total. A bonus is granted to the owners of the alpha pass that we will see later in the article, but for now let's see the composition :

1x Bored Ape NFT

2x Pudgy Penguins NFT

72x TheSandbox Avatar (from various collections)

300,000 SAND shared pool

Let's break this down a bit, the first point 300,000 Sand of rewards shared between all players, it's an interesting sum. For the rest 72 avatars from different collections: Hellboy (2019), The (Snoop) Doggies, Rabbids Rockstar, Netmarble, ShibuyaY3KFashion, Paris Hilton, Blastheads.

For VIP Avatars, it is a "so-called rare collection" because it expresses "nft artists" who generate a large volume. I write it like that because I don't see the use of making a communication on sandbox knowing that its nfts are only used to have a stylish avatar. If you get it, resell it very expensive :) here is the use that I see with its avatars.

Bonus ep with alpha pass

For owners of the alpha pass, sandbox offers until January 7 on the Club XYZ map, an ep bonus that goes up to 78. If you haven't done it, this is the opportunity to drop to 98ep to finish the event, so less time to validate it. Do it quickly, after that the bonus is over and it's a shame to rush the players.

The composition of the experiments

This may be one of the most interesting events of 2024 with new content that changes a little. Overall you will find experiences that are enjoyable to play. On the other hand I have to point out, releasing 170ep after a season 4 with an incredible amount of experience, it's almost nauseating to have to chain experiences non-stop which moreover for old players the same experiences each time, would the game become boring?

In conclusion

I would conclude with my opinion, it was not the right time to launch this type of event, season 4 was long and laborious to obtain the eps and the different rewards and then "chain" to try to keep the same rhythm of players, I would use the word nausea. Playing is good, playing too much is boring. Honestly if you are motivated to chain the maps, go for it because I am not sure that there are many players just after the end of the alpha.
