Polar Quarter

The Polar Quarter acts as a culmination of the past Christmas locations. The Gift Shop can be seen still functional on the right, and the Christmas School in the background. The location still keeps in tradition, as there is still a very familiar decorated tree within the frame.

The Quarter, as with the majority of locations, seems to be devoid of human interaction. Santa's sleigh seems to be left behind, prompting the Detective to have the player investigate here. Obtaining a letter in the sleigh, it's no doubt that the Snow Queen is behind the Christmas trouble again.

Along with the 2018 December Event, the location introduces a new Anomaly, as well as a new item related to the Event: Soul Crystals that can potentially change the Snow Queen's evil future. In addition to the Ice Golems being revived, the Snowmen that appeared in the city are appearing once again.

The player's perspective in this location seems to be looking down the marketplace, right next to the Gift Shop that was saved by them years prior. From there, points of interest when looking for items are the street, with the sleigh left behind, house on the left, the Gift Shop on the right, the adorned Sweet Shop further back, and lastly the outside of the once explored Christmas School.

Ranks
This table shows the energy, experience, and coins for each rank of the Polar Quarter. These will be different depending on a player’s rank and if they participated in the 2018 December event.
 * Energy is different for different plays depending on what their personal level is in-game. (Ex. Level 9 may have lower energy cost throughout the event, and level 50, may have a higher energy cost throughout the event) Therefore this chart is not going to be the same for everyone during an event.
