First purchase of a 6 month Citizenship package comes with a free exclusive chat bubble and player card!

You can also earn it from contests which are announced via our Blog and Discord weekly. You can spin the Daily Wheel and perhaps luck will be on your side, too. Or, simply participate in the shorter weekly challenges under the "News" tab, and more!

We offer many incentives and opportunities for our users to earn Citizenship. We announce them very frequently, so stay tuned and you may find your opportunity to become a Citizen.
