Left

Click on the Calendar icon and scroll.
Click on the Eye icon on the left under the title of the Event to see a small story and prize list.

Set Your Time Zone

Make sure to set your Time Zone correctly because the calendar time for event start uses that information for each player.
Left

Unfortunately, in game, your Time Zone does not account for the changing times in spring and fall. You must manually change it.

In the USA for 2020, Daylight Savings Time is March 8th thru November 1st.

Set your Time Zone back one hour in the spring and forward one hour in the fall.
For reference:

  • Eastern Time in the USA is 0500, as in the pic, when not during DST and has to manually be reset from 0400 during EDT.

What to do

Points are gained for:

  • Single Herb - a known specific herb.
  • Total Herb - all the herbs you pick.
  • Mystery Herb - an unknown specific herb to figure out by watching to get a score under Mystery Herb.
  • Most Types of Herb

Each oasis (group of trees and plants) has a chance of spawning an herb or two.
