Oozefest

WELCOME TO OOZEFEST!
The Out of Cards Halloween Celebration


What is Oozefest?

Oozefest is our annual Halloween event and celebration! We've got activities lined up on the site for the entire week and some trick-or-treating fun to earn Candy. Check back every day to see if there's any new content - all our Halloween fun will get cross-posted to this page.


What is Candy?

Candy is the first event-specific site currency! And an introduction to site currency in general =)

  • You'll earn Candy by participating in Oozefest.
  • You can spend your Candy for limited-time cosmetics in our new site shop.

Okay, Cool. How Do I Earn Candy?

Candy can be earned by completing tasks on the site! Here are all the different tasks available:

  • Complete trick-or-treating clues within our card databases.
  • Completing achievements with Candy rewards.
  • Browsing the site for random Candy drops (up to 20 per day).
  • Participating in our Hearthstone Halloween Card Design Competition.
    • Do note that only entries that do not get disqualified are allowed to earn Candy. Candy will be provided at the end of the competition.

Premium users will earn Candy slightly faster while browsing the site.

What Can I Get With My Candy?

We've got forum titles, profile headers, and coming a little bit later during the event, new avatar borders!

  • All cosmetics are limited-time rewards and will disappear from the shop 1 week after event ends.
  • You may not be able to buy all cosmetics during the event - pick and choose carefully!
  • We will bring event-specific cosmetics back in future years alongside new stuff. Your Candy won't rot!

    She can protect humans without being a human herself. Think about a color and a creature type that are commonly associated with protection.

      Assuming you take 5 seconds per card and keep at that pace for a while, it only takes like 3 days to go through every single card so better get on that sooner than later.

      In all seriousness, I understand your pain given that I've kept LoR away from me with a 10 foot pole. These scavenger hunts aren't as fun when it becomes a chore of just clicking everything. Luckily, there is something on it's way soon that should help with about half of them. So if you do continue trying to go for the last 16, good luck but if you don't, 3/4ths of all the riddles is still really good!

        I tried to make sure at least 50% of the LoR clues would be gettable even for someone who's never played the game if they were willing to search for matching keywords, and at least 25% required in-game knowledge. O:-)

    Firstly, I'm loving the event! I was wondering if anyone has a clue for "On Hallow's End, the shadows rise, but this costume hands out treats"

    Show Spoiler
    I get it's something to do with Rise of Shadows and feel like I'm missing something really obvious! 😆

          I certainly don't think you are!

          Some of these clues can be tough. I was present when a few very casual Hearthstone players were trying to solve some of them and it was tough.

          I think in the future we'll need to go for some more obvious clues in addition to the more mind-teasers just to make sure everyone can pick up a nice chunk of candy.

          Congrats on second place on the leaderboard btw =D

    I need some serious help with these 2 Magic clues, anyone who would like to point me in the right direction please?

    • Having just lost a close friend, this planeswalker is currently going through a goth phase.
    • A card so scary that even MTGA is afraid of it, crashing the game after it sees it too many copies of it.

    EDIT: Only 2 clues remaining to solve before completing the whole oozefest challenge ;-)

      Here's some hints for the last two magic clues.

      For the first one...

      Show Spoiler
      Even in her current phase, she loves seeing lands enter the battlefield.

      As for the second one...

      Show Spoiler
      It doesn't look like a big threat being only a 1/1, but as Survival Rule 782 states, there are always more of this insect

      Good luck!

            There are plenty more holidays though! I'd consider this year's Halloween event a baseline of what is to come for future events =D

    You gave Jack a face, and now you regret it because he wants to squash you.

    understand it's goes together with the card flavour text but i aint reaching it

     

    There's something that I could learn at this school, but I'd need a guidebook to help me out.

      Here's some hints!

      For the first one...

      Show Spoiler
      While faceless at the start, some people like to carve faces on this card

      For the second one...

      Show Spoiler
      Doesn't actually have to do with the flavor text, though silence is still real nice to stop all his rattling

      For the third one...

      Show Spoiler
      While the compendium might help teach you about what cards have been good and which have been bad, it doesn't help you meet the faculty

      Good luck with the mythgard and MTG ones!
