Guide to the event Bright Birds in the Spring Sky

- Paper gluttons.
- Jubilant animals and good omens.
- Running on rainbow clouds.
The first mini-games will open after completing the first story mission, the subsequent ones will open as new stages of the event begin.
Paper gluttons
Paper Gluttons is a test of wits in which players will have to take part in “paper theater” scenes. Controlling the main characters, Goba and the rabbit Yuegui, lead them across the playing field to the culinary ingredients to prepare a dish. On the way, the little chefs will encounter various obstacles and puzzles, which they have to overcome and solve in a limited number of moves.
In the later stages of the challenge, Gobe and Yuegui will have to work together, and players will have to switch between characters to solve a series of difficult puzzles and collect missing food items.
Read a separate walkthrough guide Paper gluttons.
Jubilant animals and good omens
Jubilant animals and good omens - a cooperative test of speed. During the games, play the Ushou dance with friends or random players to earn points and receive valuable rewards. The test stages take place according to one of three scenarios, which differ from others in special rules and mechanics:
- "Flow of Abundance" - the simplest test in which you have to collect “Abundance” on the playing field. You can collect coins either with the selected character or in the form of Ushou, which allows you to move faster and push away other players.
- "To the top!" - is a test during which you need to climb onto marked platforms that periodically appear on the playing field. In Ushou Tolker form, occupy the marked squares and push other players out of them to rise to the top of the rankings.
- "Luck, come!" will require players to react quickly. The Sharp Spirit mode will periodically launch on the playing field, taking away HP points from players. To avoid its effects, stay in the marked safe areas and push other players out of them with the Ushou Punch. The more health you have left at the end of the test, the more points you can get for completing it.
Find out details about each stage in the mini-game guide Jubilant animals and good omens.
Rainbow Cloud Run
The Rainbow Cloud Run is a speed test in which you have to go through prepared routes against the clock. As a golden carp, navigate through the air with exploding fireworks and collect jade lotus lanterns to reach the required number of challenge points.

I'm wondering, what if newcomers with a lower rank want a new character, and
The rank is not high enough, for example rank 16-17, then how can they get 4 ⭐ if the rank is low? Because in such a period of time, few people will have time to reach rank 28 or higher
Already the twentieth rank of adventure during the event (especially the main one) is easily gained
When will there be a guide with the location of the characters?
Why are there so few source stones they said they’ll give about a hundred twists
They used to give 1000 primogems, not twists. That’s how many cool things people get in a year of playing. Moreover, you can get more than 100 spins for updates without donating. You get almost 17 spins for entering (600 prims for technical work, 3 spins in a letter, an event for entering the game 10 spins) into the game, a new territory with its own tasks and a bunch of chests, 4 standard and 2 event prayers for a closed jade and approximately 2000 primogems from events. The update is good. For the lack of prayers, you complain about one of the creators of hoevers, who is strangling the players, some of them were in the first honkai. If he survives the heroin, there will be more rewards.
100 spins - this is for AES patch 4.4, for daily activities, research of a new location, for all events. Not just a holiday, there will be other events later. And in general, for everything, for the entire patch, there are about a hundred twists.
Nichoshi, it will end on my birthday
