What the visit includes

During the visit, you’ll learn about animal rescue, spend time with dogs and play games that help them learn commands. You’ll also help with feeding and cleaning and keep the animals company. The organizers also promise participant supply packs and association certificates. These activities and gifts are for the in-person visit, not in-game rewards.

Food donations are pledges

Heartopia has pledged 30 bags of Royal Canin cat food in 8 kg bags and 30 bags of Royal Canin dog food in 17 kg bags, in players’ names. These are the total quantities for the initiative, rather than an amount per participant.

Heartopia also announces further donations over the following year in players’ names, without a fixed schedule. We haven’t confirmed delivery of the pledged food.
