The time has come — Forge has closed. Even though the game has ended, players can still build on their Forge during the validation period. Both Leaderboards are frozen and voting and Rift access are disabled. A snapshot of final AMP and Shard Leaderboard results has been taken. Forge will fully close after the validation period, meaning no players will be able to access their Forge any longer.


  • Like previous seasons, the AMP validation process will begin today and its completion will be announced as soon as possible.


  • This time, the validation process will also include the distribution of ApeCoin rewards. Learn more on the FAQ page.

It looks like a few bugs slipped by in the previous maintenance, check out today’s updates:

  • When selecting “Refill to Continue” Gears to continue an Expedition after the HV's Battery depletes, the Gear counter will not show zero anymore.


  • The animation for the Loot Chest opening is now fixed when players rotate their mobile phones between mobile and landscape.

Quality of life and UI updates coming in hot!


  • We heard you Community, Apecoin reward values have been updated in accordance from our announcement last Friday. These values have also been updated in the official Forge Game Guide.


  • Some UI copy adjusted for clarity.


  • We heard Gary was trolling some HV’s within the tutorial. Now, when players hard refresh, Gary will not make you go through the “craft a key” tutorial again even if the player does not have a key Mold to use.


  • Some interesting numbers were appearing for players when it came to how many Shards they collected at the end of an Expedition. The game logic was correct for all players, but visually the Shard amount was incorrect for some players. Now, all players will see the correct amount of Shards collected at the end of an Expedition.
