New Building/Defense Levels

 

New Troop Levels

New Electro Owl Levels

Get ready to zap your enemies into oblivion because everyone's beloved lightning-hurling hooter is leveling up with several exciting new levels!

Clan Chat Improvements

Clan Chat just got a major glow-up! It was feeling a tad old-fashioned, so we spruced it up with some snazzy new visuals and features. Get ready for a chat experience that's as enjoyable as a stroll through a treasure-filled garden!

Pinned Messages

Say hello to pinned messages! Now you can stick important chat and system messages right at the top of the Chat view. Plus, there's a shiny new tab just for pinned messages.

Only the Leader and Co-Leaders hold the pinning power, but fear not, messages can be unpinned just as easily as they're pinned.

Reactions

Prepare to express yourself with style! With reactions, you can now jazz up another player's message with emoji flair. Choose from a delightful selection of preset emojis to add a splash of personality to the chat.

And the best part? Reactions and their quantities are proudly displayed beneath each message, so everyone can see just how much love (or laughter) they're getting!
