Today, we're thrilled to invite you to experience our latest creation - Ashes to Ashes.

Hey landlords!



Uncle Steve is back with his shenanigans! To celebrate Easter and show our appreciation for your continued support, we're hosting a special Easter Egg Hunt event in The Tenants from April 6th to April 20th. Get ready to explore the Slums district and hunt for hidden Easter eggs, which will unlock a charming set of Easter-themed items for you to decorate your properties with.

But that's not all! Our beloved partner in crime has gone one step further and hidden some extra-special Easter baskets throughout the Suburbs. These baskets contain unique items that can't be bought or unlocked anywhere else in the game. So, make sure to keep your eyes peeled and gather these one-of-a-kind treasures while the event lasts.

We hope you enjoy this festive event and the opportunity to add some seasonal flair to your rental properties. On behalf of the entire team at Ancient Forge, we'd like to wish you all a very Happy Easter! Have an egg-cellent time hunting for eggs and discovering the delightful surprises that await you in The Tenants' Easter Egg Hunt event.
