Kyoto Season Flow

Hello, Mayors.

We are excited to introduce the Kyoto Season, starting tomorrow. This season features two Seasonal Currencies—Kyoto Taxes and Bamboo Coins—and two Seasonal Currency Showcases. 

Plus, we're introducing the new Kyoto Residential Zones, and one of the many cool features is the upgradeable Torii Trails Shrine.

Let's get into some interesting new content that you can enjoy.

 

Kyoto Residential Zones

We are introducing Kyoto Residential Zones, a new type of Residential Zone that is upgradeable and has a maximum population of 1836. These zones generate the Kyoto Taxes. Higher-level zones produce more taxes, encouraging strategic upgrades.

 

Kyoto Taxes

Collect your Kyoto Taxes from Kyoto Residential Zones, Mayor's Pass, Event Tracks, and other sources.

Use them in the Taxes Exchange Showcase to exchange for Bamboo Coins, buildings, storage items, Golden Tickets, and more. You can also directly purchase more Kyoto Taxes here.

Bamboo Coins

Bamboo Coins are obtained by exchanging Kyoto Taxes in the Taxes Exchange Showcase and through progress in Mayor's Pass, Event Tracks, City Album collections, and other sources. 

Use them in the Kyoto Showcase to purchase limited-time buildings, Golden Tickets, and other items.

You can also purchase more Bamboo Coins and find a special building here, the Torii Trails Shrine.

Torii Trails Shrine

The Torii Trails Shrine is a special building for this season. 

Acquire it from the Kyoto Showcase and upgrade it to a maximum level of 12 using Bamboo Coins, enhancing its appearance, effect area, and boost. 

Enjoy having this beautiful landmark in your city!

You can also find attached a very useful infographic showing how it is all connected.

Seasonal Currency Showcases

Let's check out how the currencies and Seasonal Currency Showcases connect, and where we can acquire and use each.

Kyoto Taxes -> Taxes Exchange Showcase
Bamboo Coins -> Kyoto Showcase

Both Seasonal Currency Showcases last for the full duration of the Season.

You can now also directly exchange Kyoto Taxes for Bamboo Coins in the Taxes Exchange Showcase, similar to how you used to do it in the Cairo Season!! You have 3 options for exchanging them, each having a unique cooldown before being able to exchange again:

1st -> 4 hours
2nd -> 8 hours
3rd -> 24 hours

Bonus!!

Also, as a bonus and to celebrate the launch of the Kyoto Season, we're offering a limited time only sale on the Premium Mayor's Pass+.

Be sure to get it while it lasts!

We hope this information will serve you well for tomorrow’s Season start. 

Thank you for being part of our community!
