The Black Pearl
From time to time the game will release special mini events that often complement and coincide with an update's main timed challenge. Those mini-events will be listed on their respective update's pages.
There are 2 standard mini-events: Gemstone Search and Black Pearls. These mini-events are presented with minor differences in the rewards for each iteration but still operate in the same manner as previous versions.
On May 30, 2017 a new version of the Black Pearl mini-event was released.
