Tavern Update

The Tavern update was released on the 5th of May 2014 for IOS players and on the [release pending, typically within 2 weeks of IOS release] for Android players.

The Tavern update introduced a new picture, Tavern, new collections, new quests, and a second silver badges box. Silver badges can be found within pictures (not as rewards for successful investigations). The original silver badges box required players to find 200 silver badges to unlock the box. The second silver badges box introduced in the Tavern update requires players to find 400 silver badges.

The Tavern update was the first non-holiday themed update that contained time sensitive challenges. Players had 14.5 days to complete two challenges released with the Tavern update. These challenges are geared heavily around the pictures in the game that require special items to play (e.g. Night Garden, Mill, Illusionists Room, Tree of Dates). Unlike the Christmas Update and the Valentines Update, the Tavern update did not convert the previous update's special item picture into a normal picture. Tree of Dates, released with the previous Valentines Update, still requires Cupid Arrows for each play after updating to the Tavern Update. Cupid Arrows can now only be won in Venice and Throne Room (as opposed to every picture, as during the Valentines Update).
