Hello, Adventurers!
Welcome to “This Month in Sky”, where we share Sky news, community activities, and creations from Sky Kids around the world. It’s been one year since we started This Month in Sky, and we have plenty of fun news to celebrate!
This month, not only are we looking forward to Season of Pearl and Days of Mischief with all of its tricks and treats, but the Community and Events teams worked together to come up with an extra treat this year: a Community Goal activity!
Read on for details and other surprises!
Please note: All dates and times are listed in PST/PDT.

Season of Pearl

Days of Mischief
October 23rd - November 12th
Get ready for tricks, treats, and mischievous fun in the Cackling Crab. There’s a lot to explore – meet the tiny witch Brigitta and other characters who only visit this time of year, play new games like Dark Dragons vs. Crabs, and enjoy returning favorites like the Broom Races.
Back by popular demand, the krill have returned to the TGC Office rooftop and are ready to hand out “hugs”, launching Sky Kids into the air! There might even be an extra treat in store; see our Community Announcements section for details on a special Days of Mischief Community Goal activity!
Radiance Event
October 2nd - 15th
Black and red Colored Light will appear more often, and there’s increased inventory in the Dye Exchange Shop.

Community Announcements
Days of Mischief Community Goal: Hug the Office Rooftop Krill
October 23rd - November 6th
It’s time for Sky’s first in-game Community Goal activity!
Beginning with Days of Mischief on October 23rd, if Sky Kids collectively receive 250,000 “hugs” (tackles) from the krill flying above the TGC Office rooftop by November 6th, everyone will receive a special memento in their inbox. Don’t worry, though – these particular mischievous krill may send you flying, but it’s all in the spirit of fun! They won’t try to steal your Winged Light when you visit.
Keep an eye out on our social media channels and in-game inbox for more details later this month!
