Treasures Beyond the Horizon



Treasures Beyond the Horizon was a limited-time event in Kemono Friends Kingdom which ran from July 20, 2023 at 5:00 server time to August 3, 2023 at 5:00 server time. It featured a story mode accessed via a road-building puzzle mini-game, and revolved around Tsuchinoko, Sand Cat, and a variety of other Friends as they searched for promised treasure high in the mountains.

Event Story
After Crested Ibis spreads word throughout Kingdom about hidden treasure atop a tall mountain, a race ensues as Friends from all over clamour to be the first to reach it! Several teams form as Friends pair off in groups to make the long trek easier; Pig and Jungle Crow combine their respectively sharp nose and eyes, Emperor Penguin and Royal Penguin take a detour on their idol training journey to check out the hubbub and promote their budding idol group, and of course Weasel, Chevrotain, and the player- and their faithful Lucky Beast companion, of course- can't resist the call of adventure. Not to be forgotten are Tsuchinoko and Sand Cat, an unlikely duo who find themselves travelling together through the desert sands on their way to the mountain...

Mini-Game
The primary feature of the Treasures Beyond the Horizon event was a road constructing mini-game through which players challenged stages, unlocked story dialogue, and obtained numerous rewards. Piloting a small Japari Bus, the player received a number of road tiles they could connect to existing, scattered road tiles present on the map; by connecting one's road tiles to preexisting road tiles on the map, the player could make a road network through which they could access story cut-scenes and Cerulean battles found across said map. Road tiles themselves, when laid down, would sometimes reveal a Cerulean battle or a chance event. During a chance event, the player rolled two die to resolve the outcome of a situation encountered while on the road; depending on the outcome, they might have been rewarded or punished. The player also had a Luck stat which could modify the outcome of chance events; this Luck stat was itself gained and increased by a potential outcome of chance events.

Other common outcomes included receiving or losing map tiles, foreseeing upcoming map tiles, or receiving Ruins Coins.
