Search For The Needle Alien Event (September 2026)

The Alien event was the game’s first limited-time content wave in September 2026 — the update that made the UFO more than a rumor and introduced the game’s first event currency.

What the event added

• ALIEN code — reported to grant 200 Gems + 200 Alien Coins; its status has flickered between reports since the event ended, so check the live status on the codes page before counting on it.
• Alien Coins — an event-only currency with its own shop; it was designed to expire with the event window.
• UFO dressing — the FARMHOUSE environment picked up alien/UFO-themed content, turning the Find the UFO badge from background myth into an explicit hunt.

Event timing

Community tracking put the event window in early-to-mid September 2026, closing around September 15. That end date refers to the event listing — event currency and themed content are the parts that expire, while permanent unlocks (like the UFO badge) outlive the window.

What outlived the event

• The UFO badge — permanent and still earnable; the event made its theme official, not temporary.
• Gems from ALIEN — if the code is still live for you, the Gem half of the reward is permanent currency that feeds class spins.
• The precedent — a first event establishes the pattern: limited currency, a code drop, and map dressing. Expect the next event to follow the same shape; the updates tracker logs each wave as it lands.
