For many, this wasn’t just an event; it was a communal celebration of renewal, where the thrill of discovery bloomed brighter than Easter lilies. 😊
Gathering Your Shovels
To join Sofia’s dig, players needed tokens—those precious shovels that unlocked treasures. Earning them required strategy:

Digging Through Pastel Puzzles
With shovels in hand, players clicked the Spring Treasures menu to explore 20 levels of increasingly complex pastel grids. Each tile cleared cost one shovel, revealing silhouettes of Easter-themed artifacts above. The early levels felt like gentle gardening—methodical and soothing. But as grids expanded, tension mounted. Larger tiles demanded multiple shovels, forcing tough choices. Should you risk shovels on a hunch or skirt obstacles first? Seasoned diggers used grid patterns as maps, whispering strategies like archaeologists deciphering ruins. Clearing a level brought visceral triumph—unearthing the final tile sparked fireworks of confetti and the sheer relief of solving a riddle.
