Side Jobs
Side Jobs were introduced during the Halloween 2018 seasonal event.[1] These are optional objectives a hero or heroine can do alongside their usual quest.
Gaining Side Jobs
Side Jobs are a possible outcome of your hero visiting a point of interest when level 25 or above. Additionally, coupons from the Godville Times will occasionally provide a side job.[2] In the event that such a coupon is redeemed with an already active side job, gold will be supplied instead. If it is successfully completed by your hero within the time, a reward will be collected the next time they visit a point of interest.[3]
Side jobs are timed and could range between 36-54 hours. The timer on a side job may be increased by an additional 10 or 12 hours when reaching another point of interest.[4] There is no limit to the amount of time extensions a side job can get.
There is no way to cancel a side job, aside from letting the timer expire and visit the next point of interest.
Side Job rewards
Side Job rewards include 1 to 3 gold bricks, gopher wood logs, creatures, or glyphs, possibly also with an activatable artifact that contains other artifacts; namely, a side job bonus.
On the Halloween 2019 update,[5] apart from adding another 3 side jobs, should a hero finish the job and reach a point of interest with more than 24 hours to spare, they will be granted the maximum reward possible for the successful side job.
The Third Eye will record only completed Side Jobs and their rewards.
