Twilight Towers: Hearth and Homes Update
WHAT’S NEW
Home is where the Hearth is, or whatever the saying is. Either way, the Energy and Villagers mechanic has been reworked into a new system as we introduce Hearths & Homes to Fernhollow!
Note: The 1.7.0 update will be rolled out to players at different times. If you don’t see the update yet, don’t fear - you can expect the update by the following week. Thank you for your patience, Lightkeepers!
FEATURE CHANGES
VILLAGERS
Villagers are no longer used to harvest resources from Harvestables, or determine the maximum capacity of Energy. They’re out of Fernhollow to take a well deserved break.
HEARTHS & HOUSES
Houses will now generate Energy over time. Energy will be regenerated until the maximum Energy limit has been reached (even while you are offline!).
- Houses can be merged to increase their level. Increased Houses levels will provide greater energy generation:
- Level 1: 1 Energy per hour
- Level 2: 3 Energy per hour
- Level 3: 8 Energy per Hour
- Level 4: 20 Energy per Hour
- Level 5: 50 Energy per Hour
- Level 6: 125 Energy per Hour
- Level 7: 315 Energy per Hour
- Level 8: 800 Energy per Hour
- Houses can be purchased in the Shop using Gold or obtained from Crates.
- Coffee can still be used to replenish all Energy up to the maximum limit.
⭐ NEW GRID ELEMENT: HEARTHS
Hearths are a NEW mergeable grid element that increase the maximum energy capacity in Fernhollow by storing the energy generated by Houses.
- Hearths can be merged to increase their level. Hearth levels will provide increased maximum energy capacity:
- Hearth (Level 1): 4 Max Energy
- Kindled Hearth (Level 2): 10 Max Energy
- Warm Hearth (Level 3): 25 Max Energy
- Bright Hearth (Level 4): 565 Max Energy
- Glowing Hearth (Level 5): 165 Max Energy
- Eternal Hearth (Level 6): 425 Max Energy
⭐NEW GRID ELEMENT: ENERGY

- Unbound Energy (Level 4): 27 Energy
- Apex Energy (Level 5): 81 Energy
