EVERFOREST UPDATE v0.44.231 HF7.4 - ONBOARDING RESET - 04/10/2023

The team is working hard to improve the early game experience you—no matter if you’re a new or returning player!

Special note: For everyone, progress has been reset for this build. Progress in EverForest is currently capped to level 15 so when you reach level 15 we encourage you to continue to play and collect rewards, but you won’t earn XP or get special merge items from animals.

We want to make this game amazing! Your feedback continues to be incredibly helpful. If you have things to say (suggestions for improvements and/or kudos), please consider becoming an EverForest Insider by contacting [e-mail] — You’ll help to shape the future of the game (and our planet)!

PATCH HIGHLIGHTS

• Updated onboarding experience! You’ll find a new onboarding experience with a focus on teaching the basics of collecting, merging and completing tasks.

• A more productive EverForest! The plants in your EverForest will now produce items faster so you can collect them sooner. The merge item caps have been adjusted to account for this quicker production.

• More merge items! Plants in your forest now produce two merge items as soon as they are planted! No more waiting to unlock those rare merge items from you plants.

• Better rewards! Your chests may have unique merge items you can only get from chests. Merge them and then sell them to earn merge currency.

• Earn a real tree sooner! You can now earn a real tree at the end of level 4, helping our planet and increasing the production of your EverForest earlier than previous versions of the game.

• End game updates! When you reach Level 15, you’ll run into a never-ending task system so you can continue to play until new levels are added.
