Heckbug mating season is once again here. This year, two representatives for the H.E.C.K. organization (Helpers of Exotic Creatures…for Karma!) are present in the hub — along with the return of an infamous and mysterious entomologist.
Players kick off their love-bug-filled journey by helping the H.E.C.K. organization “shore up” heckbug numbers, which means helping them in the Geode Caves & assisting in their lifelong dream to find the perfect mate. This process has some interesting results, so the player will need to stick around and help out with a swarm of unexpected consequences!
By completing these heckin’ quests, players collect the materials required to complete the event and unlock new collectibles!
Key Feature of Trove’s Heckbugs in Love Update:
- What the H.E.C.K.: A fleet of spaceships has appeared, which happen to signify the arrival of ambassadors from H.E.C.K. — the Helpers of Exotic Creatures…for Karma! Players are tasked with aiding H.E.C.K. by providing assistance to the Heckbugs found in the Geode caves, using Critter Treats to sate their hunger, Comfort Blankets to warm them up, or Curing Kits to heal their wounds.
- Time to Play Cupid: As part of the quest, players are also tasked with helping heckbugs find love. Purchase Amorous Heckbugs from a H.E.C.K. ambassador, set them on their blind dates, and if you’re lucky, help raise up the eggs!
- Clean Up the Aftermath: As it turns out, heckbug mating has some… consequences. Who knew? Continue your quest with a surprising turn of events!
