Whiteout Survival

[New Content] 1. New "Fire Crystal Age" Expansion: Winter will one day be lit by fire! Once the Furnace reaches Fire Crystal Lv. 1, your City will officially enter the "Fire Crystal Age". In this new age, survivors are gradually overcoming the threats of bitter cold and death. Complete Survivor Profiles give every survivor in the City a unique identity. As life becomes more stable, survivors begin to hope for better housing, food, healthcare, work, and entertainment. The old Mailbox will be transformed into the "Wish Station", where survivors can share their hopes for a better future. As the Furnace Level increases and prerequisite Wishes are completed, more Wishes will become available. Completing Wishes rewards Chiefs with "Wish Sigils", which can be exchanged in the "Wish Shop" for exclusive materials used to construct future entertainment Buildings. At the same time, the Chief Order feature will enter a new phase alongside city development. Some old Chief Orders will be removed after entering the Fire Crystal Age, and new Chief Orders such as "Crunch Time", "Advanced Training", and "Dawn Alliance Commendation" will be added to provide new support for resource production, soldier training, and city development. 2. New "Endless Trials" Gameplay: Wulfgar, the barbarian chieftain known as the "Windhowler" from the far north, is about to appear on the tundra! After the event begins, eligible Chiefs can head to the Wilderness after 00:30 (UTC) each day to challenge the "Windhowler". Each Chief can launch up to 30 solo attacks per day; rallies cannot be initiated. The system will calculate daily rankings based on each Chief's highest single-instance damage that day. The event includes daily participation rewards, daily leaderboard rewards, and achievement rewards to help Chiefs keep pushing the limits of the trial. 3.
