Dear Settlers,

Happy International Women's Day! In order to celebrate this occasion, we sent flowers to brighten everyone's day. You can use them to make your island look even more fantastic or let them do the talking for you by gifting them to your loved ones.

Please check your in-game mailbox as your gift should be there in the next hour.

Happy Settling!
