Requirements

Trainers must perform various tasks to earn Dice to navigate through each map level, as each tile movement costs a number of Dice. A limited amount of Dice can be earned within a 6-hour period per task. The limit starts at 200 and increases by 100 after the next reset, every time a level is completed (the key has been found), starting with Level 1, but maxing to 600, totaling up to 3,600 per pool. Each tile step rewards the Trainer with either Food, Gold, or Scrolls. The amount of Food and Gold rewarded depends on the Level Modifier. The total blue tile Dice cost of a level is distributed among the different paths inside it. Battles can be fought normally with no cost or can be won instantly in exchange for a certain cost. If a battle is lost, the Trainer can purchase the instant win or wait 30 minutes before they can attempt the battle again.

Each level contains a number of chests and one of the chests holds a while the remaining chests hold a card giving Dragon Pieces. The position of the key is random and can be obtained from any chest. Once a key is obtained, the Trainer can advance to the next level without having to open other chests. Opening all of the chests is necessary to obtain the Scrap Metal Dragon, but not to advance to a new level.

Dice obtained from food-collecting tasks are awarded upon collecting the Food and not planting it, whereas Dice acquired from breeding tasks are awarded upon selecting the Breed button inside the Breeding Den and not upon moving an egg to the Hatchery.

Level #	Blue Tiles	Total Blue Tile Cost	Battles	Cost per Instant Win	Chests	Cost per Chest	Minimum Dice^[1]	Maximum Dice^[2]

Level 1	20	2,400	3	400	4	250	2,928	4,600

Level 2	30	4,800	5	800	5	500	5,348	11,300

Level 5	71	19,201	14	4,000	7	1,500	21,627	85,701

↑ Minimum Dice amounts are based on taking the cheapest paths for opening all chests on a level and assumes that a Trainer can defeat all battle tiles on that path without having to purchase the instant win.
↑ Maximum Dice amounts represent the sum of opening all chests, stepping on all blue tiles and skipping all battles.

Points for Collecting Food

The maximum amount of Dice that can be received from a task in this event is strictly related to the level the Trainer is at in the event. Level 5 has the highest cap, 600 , thus, no higher number can be obtained. Any values over 600 are merely representative.

1 day	375	5,625	1,406.25

2 days	750	11,250	1,406.25

↑ These values are calculated based on perfect cycles, assuming that there is no loss of time in between re-planting Food. However, one must take into account that collecting and planting Food does consume a certain amount of time, which depends on the Trainer's speed, therefore, the amounts will vary (lower than shown).

Points for Breeding Dragons

The maximum amount of Dice that can be received from a task in this event is strictly related to the level the player is at in the event. Level 5 has the highest cap, 600 , thus, no higher number can be obtained. Any values over 600 are merely representative.

The listed Dragons are maximum two examples for breeding - there may be more than two available breeding options.
If only one Dragon is listed, this is the only option.

↑ Recommended Offspring indicates those Normally-Breedable Dragons with guaranteed combinations as well as Base Dragons that share the specified breeding time. It is suggested to breed these to obtain because there is at least one combination that will result only in the desired outcome, avoiding unwanted offspring with breeding times different than the one looked after.
↑ Other Dragons include Normally-Breedable Dragons that share the specified breeding time with the exception of Dragons with guaranteed combinations and Base Dragons. Dragons with breeding times over 18 hours non-VIP are not shown, as obtaining them will award the maximum of 600 within the highest level. They take longer to breed, but yield the same amount of as shorter options, making them a less efficient alternative.
