Get ready to dive into a special time-limited event in CryptoKitties: ALL THE ZEN!
Lasting for two weeks until 23:59:59 UTC, February 21, 2025, this event offers a fun, strategic gameplay experience where you can hatch, breed, and manage Garden Variety Kitties to maximize the power of your ZEN Gardens. Plus, there are exciting limited-availability Trophies to earn along the way!
Starting the Event
You'll unlock the ZEN Garden Dream Event once you've earned 10 Million ZEN!
Tap the new ZEN Garden icon on the right side of your screen to START GARDENING...
Visit your ZEN Garden each day after the first to receive a Daily Gift of 1 Garden Egg
Your ZEN Garden will carry over between Rebirths until the event ends.
Your Goal
Breed Garden Variety Kitties and put them to work in your ZEN Garden.
Earn up to a 2x ZPS, APS, and Pet Bonus boost while the Dream ZEN Garden event lasts!
Hatching & Breeding
Hatch your Garden Eggs to reveal Garden Variety Kitties with unique Cattributes. If you have an unhatched egg with an egg timer, you can tap repeatedly to reduce the wait time!
To breed, select two non-caretaker Kitties, use an 🍆, and hatchyour new egg. Any two Kitties will do, these Kitties are gender fluid. Go with it.
After breeding, Kitties will need to refill their rizz for 24 hours before they can go at it again. (This is a good time to swap them into a Garden and put them to work!)
If you don't have a 🍆, you can say "Bye!" to any of your Kitties. They will be 😿, but will give you 1 🍆 as a parting gift. Alternatively, 🍆 can be found in the store!
Although you'll be able to buy Garden Eggs and 🍆 with beans in the storefront, be aware that all your Garden Variety Kitties, 🍆, and Boosts from Gardens will go away forever once the ZEN Garden Dream Event ends. It was all a dream after all! (Don't worry, you'll continue to have any ZEN you earned along the way!)
Work, Work
Worker Kitties increase their Garden's power while they are working. Once placed, they cannot be removed, but can be swapped with other Kitties.
Unlock the Tea Garden (Accumulation Per Second Garden) and Paradise Garden (Pet Bonus Garden) by swapping one of your worker Kitties.
In the Rock Garden, a Kitty's COLOUR determines how well it gardens. More Garden power here equates to a larger ZEN per second (ZPS) boost! Note that if multiple Kitties are the same colour, only one of these can contribute to your ZPS Boost. Variety is the spice of life... and the spice of Gardens!
In the Tea Garden, a Kitty's BODY determines how well it gardens. More Garden power here equates to a larger boost to the ZEN the big egg accumulates per second (APS). Be careful when placing Kitties in empty slots as this can limit the number of Kitties you have available to breed or go into other Gardens. As rule of thumb, breed first, place Kitties later.
In the Paradise Garden, a Kitty's PATTERN s what matters. When you put three Kitties to work each with unique patterns, you'll increase your Pet Bonus (PB) by at least 30%. Breed and place Kitties with the three most powerful Patterns and you could increase this to a full +100 PB Boost! Remember, the event lasts for two weeks, so come back each day to breed new Kitties to get closer to your goals.
How Breeding & Mutations Work:
Each Garden Variety Kitty has a Cattribute in each of three key categories:
Colour
Body
Pattern
When you breed two Kitties together:
Each Cattribute (Colour, Body, and Pattern) generally has a 50% chance of being inherited from either parent.
If both parents share the same BASIC Cattribute, their offspring is guaranteed to inherit it.
If the parents have mutating pairs of Cattributes (see below!), there is a 33% chance the offspring will acquire a new mutated Cattribute instead.
Mutated Cattributes are more effective in Gardens but cannot be passed down, making them especially rare and valuable.
Mutation chains—where mutations lead to even stronger mutations—are exceptionally rare but offer huge boosts in the right Gardens. Can you discover all three?
Mutation Examples:
Breed a Shonki Body Kittywith a Shotaku Body Kitty → 33% chance to mutate and produce a Doodly Body offspring (stronger in the Tea Garden).
Mapleglow Color + Glacialglow Color → 33% chance to mutate into Sprucetip Color (boosts Rock Garden power).
Mutation Chains:
Some mutations lead to even stronger mutations!
Doodly Body + Hackly Body → 33% chance to mutate into Dreambod, which is up to 5× stronger in the Tea Garden than a basic Body.
