14th Anniversary of Shakes & Fidget, Legendary Dungeon and Weekend Events
Roaring birthday serenades sound from the LEGENDARY DUNGEON portal in a dull manner. From Friday, June 23, we will celebrate the 14th ANNIVERSARY OF SHAKES & FIDGET! The "Shady Birthday Bash" cordially invites you to the festivities and awaits your arrival from 16 CEST. Reclaim the stolen gifts that are rightfully yours from the grabbers of the angry guests!



Watch the official teaser now:



We will celebrate the anniversary with the following BIRTHDAY EVENTS from Friday to Sunday: Crazy Mushroom Harvest, Exceptional XP Event, Lucky Day, Sands of Time Special, Forge Frenzy Festival & Tidy Toilet Time.



Pet lovers, prick up your ears! You can find the BIRTHDAY PET Cannoturtle (water 17) after defeating it in the pet habitat as long as the Legendary Dungeon is live!

Hellevator Survey "Trojan Horse"
During the Hellevator event we have observed a problem which we call the "trojan horse". It seems some players leave their guild shortly before the end of the Hellevator to take away their personal hell tokens which then do no longer count for the guild's ranking points and may lead to a lower ranking of a guild.

In order to find solutions, we have prepared a survey.

Could you please spare a few minutes to fill it out here? Your input will greatly help us in improving the gaming experience.

Thank you in advance for your time and contribution!

LD Announcement and Weekend Events
Hello heroes!

The inhabitants of the city report a familiar, but frightening feeling that is slowly spreading in them. Does the bursting of over-inflated balloons that occasionally interrupts the silence around the LEGENDARY DUNGEON portal have anything to do with it? Find out because on June 23, the "Shady Birthday Bash" we celebrate 14 years of Shakes & Fidget with will start. Put on your snazziest party hat and eagerly await the sinister birthday celebration!

Moreover, get ready for the following WEEKEND EVENTS from Friday to Sunday: Glorious Gold Galore, Witches' Dance, Assembly of Awesome Animals & Days of Doomed Souls.

Closed Beta Test – Explore the New Expedition Event!
The expedition event in this beta does not represent the final release. The reason for this is the idea to gather extensive player feedback through early testing.

Read the latest producer’s note for more information.

The following features are still in development:



  • Event popup message
  • Tutorial
  • Info screen that has all details on the feature. Find more info here: https://bit.ly/Beta08Info
  • Magnifying glass button that explains the current encounters on the clearing
  • All graphics are placeholders and not final
  • No final animations
  • Only two regions
  • “The Black Water Swamp” was visually reworked, but will only be used in this beta
  • The “Blade Cemetery” is one of the new regions

You cannot unlock dungeon keys and pet eggs with expeditions

Feedback welcome!


Although the general flow of the expeditions is set, we would appreciate your feedback on the following points:

  • Do you like the feature?
  • Would you spend your thirst for adventure on expeditions instead of classic quests?
  • Do you think the rewards are appropriate?
  • Do you understand how expeditions work?
  • How do you like the theme of encounter cycles? Do you understand the dependencies?
  • Do you like the pace new encounters are unlocked?
  • Do you have other requests for the expedition event?

Please participate in the beta survey which you will find in your inbox!

Closed Beta Facts


We will provide a key with a specific amount of registrations (500). The principle will be first come, first serve. Once the limit has been reached, you won’t be able to create an account anymore. Some personal codes may be distributed on Twitch or YouTube, though. Keep your eyes open!

The next closed beta (browser only) will start on Wednesday, 14 June 2023 at 4PM (CEST) and will be open for 7 days.

Producer’s Note #12
The next closed beta test is up and coming. This time you will have the chance to explore a new event we have created, an alternative way to spent thirst for adventure: the expedition event. In this producer’s note you will get some more background information about why we developed this event.

Read the announcement to get some more information about the closed beta details.

What are the goals of the new expedition event?


Shakes & Fidget celebrates its 14th anniversary this summer, and the quests have been with us for just as long. They are an important feature of the game to let your character make progress every day.

We have realized that this consistent routine of consuming thirst for adventure every day doesn’t provide the fun many players want.

Instead of developing a new feature that would increase the daily playtime and would require an additional investment, we have come up with an alternative for spending thirst for adventure. We followed the following guidelines:


  • In late game, it must mean fewer clicks to spend thirst for adventure than the current mechanic. Spamming the enter key must still work.
  • The mount should not only decrease the waiting time, but also increase loot.
  • Players should still be able to decide whether they would like to focus on resources or XP (to the same extent as it is currently implemented in the game).
  • The loot you gain per thirst for adventure spent must remain the same.
  • It’s supposed to feel like you are actually on a quest where you make decisions yourself to have more control over the outcome of the quest.
  • An alternative method to spend thirst for adventure will be planned as an event during which you won’t find pet eggs, but dungeon keys.


That’s why we developed expeditions!


Expeditions take the conditions mentioned above into account and we would like to test with the beta how this alternative to classic quests in the form of an event is received.

For this, we have introduced a new NPC, an elderly explorer who will lead expeditions during the event from the counter of the tavern.

Each expedition has a special task that will reward the player with extra heroism upon completion.

The mount reduces both waiting times per expedition and increases the rewards of the final score, but it does not decrease the thirst for adventure cost as classic quests do.

On a total of ten clearings, the player must pick one encounter each to advance. Spending thirst for adventure on expeditions unlocks new encounters only after a certain number in order not to overwhelm the player.

For more information on expeditions, please read the article in our help center: https://bit.ly/Beta08Info.
