The Hunt Now Rewards: Bounties, New Lands, New Harvests
Adventurers — the next update to Mirandus: Eternal Night is about to arrive, and it hands settlement owners a brand-new weapon against the dark: other players. Bounties are almost here — post a reward, rally the hunters, and watch the threat around your deed melt away. Last update, the wilds learned to strike back. Soon, you strike first — together.
🌉 NFT Bridging Is Ready
Your NFTs are coming with you. Bridging is ready: your NFTs simply appear on your NFTs page — select one, and you’ll get the option to bridge it to GalaChain, ready for the Night.
🎯 What Are Bounties?
Every zone has a Threat Level, and when it climbs too high, your settlement suffers for it. Bounties turn that problem into an opportunity: Deed owners will be able to reward other players in $GALA for hunting down the enemies prowling their zone. Every bounty kill removes that creature’s threat from the zone in real time — the owner defends their home, the hunter earns the reward. Everyone wins, except the goblins.
📜 The Bounty Loop
For owners: open your deed’s bounty panel, pick the target enemy, set the kill count, the $GALA reward, and how long the offer stands. The reward goes into escrow the moment you post — so hunters know the reward is guaranteed. Each deed can run up to 3 bounties at once. A posted bounty is a commitment: it runs until it’s completed or expires — and if it expires unfinished, the unearned remainder returns to you.
For hunters: browse the bounty board and take any open contract. You hold one bounty at a time — finish it or abandon it before taking another. Each bounty belongs to a single hunter; while it’s taken it stays on the board, blocked and marked “taken by” with the hunter’s player id, so you always see who beat you to it. From there, every valid kill of the target counts — and earns you your share of the reward.
Claim your reward. Rewards are never granted automatically — open your active bounty card and hit Claim. Claim partially — whatever your kills have earned so far — and keep hunting, or claim in full when the job is done. Change your mind mid-hunt? Abandon the bounty and it returns to the board with the remaining kills and reward for the next hunter — and everything you already earned stays claimable by you. Earnings are never lost.
💰 The Listing Fee
Posting a bounty includes a 10% Listing Fee on top of the reward, applied when the bounty is created. Hunters never touch it: you always receive the full reward on the contract.
🌐 Bounties Run on $GALA
Bounty rewards are granted in $GALA, so taking contracts is for wallet-connected players. Playing as a guest? You can still see the bounty board and everything happening on it — and when you’re ready to start collecting, creating a Gala account and connecting your wallet takes only minutes. The contracts are waiting.
🌾 New Land Deed: The Farming Hamlet
A new home is about to join the map. The Farming Hamlet is a Land Deed for settlers ready to put down roots beside the fields — a working farmstead with light to hold back the Fog, shelter to rest and recover, and grounds for shops and homes. With the wilds now full of things worth gathering, there has never been a better place to build from.
⛏️ The Land Provides: New Harvestables
The wilds are about to get generous. Four new resources will dot the lands around the settlements:
- Wheat and Oats wave across the plains near the starter zones.
- Flax grows in the meadows by the woods.
- Copper Ore hides in the mountain reaches — harder to reach, and worth the climb. Deep in the caverns, rich veins reward the bravest with several harvests before they run dry.
- Leather comes from the hunt itself — wolves and scavengers now yield hides.
Gather them, stock them, and secure them home — these materials feed the crafting economy that’s taking shape in the Night.
🌒 What’s Next
The Night keeps growing. We’re continuing to polish the bounty experience with more improvements already in the works, and the land itself is about to get more generous. Sharpen your sickles as well as your swords.
See you in the Night. 🌒
