Story

A base with the Doomsday background.

The event's story says that Worky found an hieroglyph while going to the seasonal shop. After that, some days later, a flash of light would suddenly appear, along with a new pyramid with a warpgate on top of it and giant stone spikes on the background. The warpgate would eventually start spinning and summoning new creatures known as Golems.

“	'Worky' went over to the seasonal shop to find the most astonishing Christmas tree of the Galaxy. However, this time he bumped into an enigmatic hieroglyph written on stone, what secrets will hold this prophecy?	”
	— In-game introduction.

“	Wohaa! I've gone blind because of that light...and now...what is that on the pyramid? a warpgate? it has started spinning!	”
	— Second in-game popup.

“	Watch out! Something is coming...looks like...like...what is that big thing?? Will we ever have a peaceful Christmas?	”
	— Third in-game popup.

Facts & Tips

Facts:

• Ancient creatures will awake and attack us in waves bringing chaos and destruction across the Galaxy from the 12/12/12! (official announcement)
• The countdown started on November 21, 2012.
• The Doomsday Event started on December 12/12/2012 (Wednesday)
• The "round hieroglyph" resembles a Mayan calendar tablet.
• The Doomsday Event is like the "Christmas Event", though it is not on Christmas.
• Thunder Golem shoots electricity like Wasps and Laser Towers, Wind Golems fire a tornado, Forest Golem Earth Golem hurls a giant rock, While Fire Golem acts like a Flamethrower.
• Thunder and Wind, back is feathers, Forest is leaves, while Earth is large sticks and Fire's is flames.
• On 12/12/2022, a new golem has been added to the list: a Forest Golem! Instead of killing, this unit is a healer like the Mender, which makes it the second healing unit in the game.

Tips:

• Colossus are very effective against the golems.
• Zeppelins in bunkers are also a very good option, because golems don't attack flying units.
• Falcons aren't of much help as their damage is very small (higher levels are recommended).
• Wasps inside the Bunker are effective, but as you go to further waves, it will get harder, they may be destroyed. Also try various other combo's.
• Make sure you're prepared for the golems, each of them has a powerful, unique abillity that could easily destroy your whole base.
• Fire Golem's only weaknesses are it cannot attack air units and doesn't do splash damage. Because of this it's recommended to use Earth Golem's in case you need to clear enemy bunkers of collosus.
• Despite sounding stronger than wind, Thunder Golems are the weakest golem as its stats are the lowest.
• Wind Golems have very slow projectles so multiple high level Sniper Towers and Cannon Blasts can take them down before the damage reaches them.
• The Golems within each wave is dependant on your Starbase level, the higher it is, the more powerful the waves.
• Using the golems seems to be important, Thunder is best used to attack any unprotected turret or against enemy bunker air units, Wind is the best at destroying Turrets, Earth is very good at tankning damage and wipng out clusters of collosus or turrets placed enxt to one another, while Fire is best to destroy all. Forest is used as support behind the other Golems.

Trivia

• The hieroglyph resembles a Mayan calendar tablet.
• In the hieroglyph, a lot of faces and figures can be seen, such as Firebit, an angry starling, a crazy starling, a shark, Pacman and his game's ghosts, two "12-12-12" texts, a temple of Mayans, Nukes' explosions, Space Invaders' characters, thunderbolt icons, a skull icon fishes' skeletons, an alien inside a UFO, a phone, Apple's icon, a dragon, a human-like skeleton, an dinosaur-like fossil, and more.
• This is the first event that is available on all Galaxy Life versions (AGAME, Facebook and Pocket adventures).
• The number of Golems that attacks on a attack wave depends on the player's level.
• This event is the second time that the background of the main planet changes; the first one being the Halloween Event's background.
• Unlike the Halloween Event, Golems are introduced first before the actual event.
• Earth and Fire Golems are able to reach Smasher Squad's damage, but still they don't reach their amount of health.
• This event's rewards were lowered.
• Once the player wins the event, they are able to play it again to gain more rewards.
• Although the description says that the player will obtain the Voodoo Doll after repealing 140 & 252 (52 if level 1-10) Golems respectively based on your level, the prize is only 50 Golems.
  • This also happened in the Halloween event, where the main reward isn't delivered into the player's inventory.
• Like the Halloween event, an NPC (in this case, called Shaman) will help the player. He is a Starling wearing a Christmas hat.
• The Earth Golem is seen at opening screen, as it was not encountered, in Pocket Adventures.
  • On Desktop version, a Thunder Golem is used instead.
