Defenders, the chill of autumn whispers through Dragonfall once more: our beloved Harvest Moon Festival has returned! This update also brings a balance pass to defenses and several quality of life improvements to keep your battles smoother and more enjoyable.
Farmer Tom has returned to Dragonfall, bringing back his fresh goods at unbeatable prices. But he’s still facing a dilemma... his trusty scarecrow has gone missing! (yes, again). Lend him a hand and help reunite them during the Harvest Moon Festival.
He can be found in the Tavern and Town Hub, offering Harvest Bags once per day for 100 gold. Each bag contains a random festive treat with unique effects, ranging from boosts to health and speed, to explosive fruits, popcorn blasts, radish rockets, shockwaves, and even protective grain auras.
Scarecrows are back! Three variants return during the event:
Scarecrow Ghost – Rare drop from end-of-game reward chests.
Scarecrow – Available in the Emporium for 400 gems.
Gold Scarecrow – Available from the Black Market Dealer for 250 million gold.
