If you've defeated the Wizard already, simply jump in and you'll find your new base on the Overworld map just east of the Church, near the Lumber Yard. In there you'll find a brand new upgrade tree you can throw your coins at. The first 100 waves are pre-set, afterwards they are randomly generated, getting harder and harder. Compete the in the new leaderboards to see who can reach the highest wave or who can clear the most total waves.
The
Halloween event has also started! You can now earn the Halloween themed achievements and hats from previous years. Food crates stock candy and random houses are popping up around the Overworld Map, so dress-up and go trick-or-treating.
