This year marks the 5th Bellisseria Trick or Treat event! The first one will always be my favorite because it was hard as hell. None of us knew how many candies we needed to win, so my friends and I went all in and collected a ridiculous amount. I still didn’t make the Top 10 or get all four bears in 2021, but it was so much fun trying. The second year was great too, and the bears were still adorable.
By the third and fourth years, the prizes switched to boopies, and collecting candies around Bellisseria got easier, but it still had some challenge to it.
This year, though, felt like life on easy mode. It was so simple that I didn’t enjoy it as much. As a homeowner, I already got five free candies every day. Since the Tier 4 prize only required 400 candies, I knew from the start that I’d win just by following the Bellisseria Citizens group Trick or Treat list. I guess I’m grateful it only took me two days to hit the top prize, but it wasn’t as fun because I didn’t have to team up with friends and explore all over Bellisseria like before.
My pro tip for this event is to skip any house where the bucket is too hard to find. There are tons of buckets out there, and your time is valuable. If you don’t spot it within five seconds, move on. When teleporting around, open Area Search, type “BUCKET,” and get within five meters so you can click it. You can even touch it directly from the Area Search window.
One thing I noticed about the BC list this year is that there were only around 400 buckets total. That makes me think not many people are active in the Bellisseria Citizens group anymore. There have to be over 30,000 Linden Homes by now, so where’s everyone at?
How can this event be more exciting next year? Go back to the first year’s trick-or-treating style. I don’t want to know how many candies I need to win, and the requirements should depend on how many residents are actually collecting. I’m not saying make it harder, just make it less predictable. There was also a lot of lag this year, and I really don’t like those long, narrow 2048 parcels. And bring back the bears, they were the best!
