Halloween
Trick-or-treating at other Aquarists’ aquariums while the Halloween party runs.
Trick-or-treating
While the Ice Shelf’s Halloween party runs, visiting another Aquarist’s aquarium is trick-or-treating. Your first visit of the day to each aquarium fills your treat bag, and its Aquarist finds a note in their notifications saying you came by.
The first aquarium of the day gives 6 treats, and each other aquarium you visit that day gives a little less, down to 1. Treats belong to the party: spend them before it ends.
- Each aquarium gives treats once a day; come back tomorrow for more.
- Guests and Aquarists below level 2 collect no treats; save your progress to a sign-in first.
- An aquarium gives treats once its Aquarist has had their name for a day.
- Treats can’t be sent, sold or kept for the next party.
The Halloween quests
While the party runs, a Halloween chain opens by itself in your quests: knock on doors, fill your treat bag, collect the Ice Shelf’s pumpkin, place it in your aquarium, buy something from the party shop and visit the whole street. Each step pays coins and XP like any other quest; when the party ends, the steps you have not finished close with it.
The last step also gives the Pumpkin Mask for your wardrobe.
The party shop
While the party runs, Build & Buy has a Party tab. Its few limited decorations cost treats, not coins: Bubbling Cauldron (20), Mossy Gravestone (30), Witch Hat (35), Lantern Gourds (45), Bat Wings (50), Crooked Cottage (60). A piece goes straight to your Pantry. Pieces bought with treats can’t be sold back.
The Witch Hat and the Bat Wings are wardrobe pieces: each is bought once and goes to your wardrobe, for any of your fish to wear.
The treat board
Below the party shop, the treat board ranks Aquarists by the treats they collected; whoever reached a total first stands higher. When the party ends, the top 10 Aquarists on the board earn the Treat champion badge; it is given the next time they play.
Party badges carry the year of the party that gave them, shown on a ribbon across the seal: coming to this year's party gives Halloween Party 2026, and its champions hold Treat champion 2026. Next year's party gives new badges with the new year, so every party you came to keeps its own seal in your badge case.
A pumpkin for everyone
Every Aquarist who plays during the party up to 2 November, guests included, finds one Party Pumpkin in their Pantry, once. It is the same pumpkin the Ice Shelf gives, and the two never use each other up.
The season’s dress
For the whole party the site dresses up: the landing page, the loading screen and your own aquarium turn to night and indigo, lantern garlands and glowing pumpkins light the water, and bats flit overhead. It turns itself off when the party ends.
When the party is over, autumn follows, from 3 to 30 November. It is a season, not a party: a few leaves drift down over the landing page, the loading screen and your aquarium and settle on the water or the sand, and in the afternoon the light on the water is a little warmer. There is nothing to collect and nothing to miss.
