Nicole also joins the fight and will be available in the event gacha.

**Features:**
**Boss Campaign** The Epic Boss Campaign has finally arrived! This feature introduces a new campaign that consists of 21 levels each with 20 tiers for a total of 420 tiers to complete.
Each tier provides more and more of the resources you'll need to craft exclusive maidens, set items and the new **Ultimate Items**! Note that high tier maps are not easy to complete. Some may even be impossible to many of you. Later tiers, impossible for everyone.
These levels do not use energy. Instead they use an "attempt" system which refreshes every day. 3 different levels are unlocked each day and each player gets 10 attempts per day.
This feature is meant to be a true end game feature that allows for growth, accounts for our future plans for the world of Crystal Maidens and accounts for the highly anticipated Maiden Balance Pass which will introduce powerful new passive abilities and a rebalance of many maidens.
We sincerely hope you'll enjoy this feature as our small team has put a lot of time and effort into getting it to you in time for Christmas. We're looking forward to your feedback so be sure to share!
**Animations**
Animations are finally here! The vast majority of maidens have had their standing idle images animated. Most sex scenes have also been animated. 1 frame for common, rare and epic maidens. All 3 frames for legendaries and guardians.
Note that maidens who came out fairly recently are not animated yet, but will be animated very early in the new year. Some old maidens may also be missing a few animations as those were not quite ready. We're looking forward to feedback. A large release like this is bound to come with bugs here and there and we intend to fix animation bugs as soon as we get them. Let us know on Steam or Discord what you think!
**Special Scene** A new animated scene showing Shan and Hikaru getting their well deserved attention from our protagonist is now available in the Gallery! This scene has been drawn by a new artist and has been trained by our in-house artist himself! We hope you'll like it as much as we do!
**Sale** For the duration of the holidays, all gem purchases from the store will grant a 30% bonus.
**Balance** - Reduced Katsumi's damage slightly. - Reduced Katsumi's splash radius (this was very negatively impacting the balance of the Boss Campaign).
**Bug Fixes** - Fixed 114 issues related to the boss campaign, animations and the crafting event.
