**Happy Birthday Spiral Knights**

Spiral Knights is SEVEN years old!  It’s time again to help Biscotti, the Skylark's Head Chef, avoid disaster in two special missions - [Total Caketastrophe](http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Total_Caketastrophe!) and [A Gremlin in Knead](http://wiki.spiralknights.com/A_Gremlin_in_Knead). Fight Creep Cakes and Batterbots to earn Cake Slice tokens, then visit Maskwell in Haven Town Square to exchange your tokens for:

- Cake helms
- Anniversary Prize Boxes
- Other party accessories

##### Surprise Boxes!

**Today through April 25, 2018:** Spiral HQ has assembled prize boxes from the past year together into a Surprise Box. When you open a Surprise Box, you will randomly receive a past prize box and confetti. There is also a chance to find a Stately Cap costume helm! For details on this box and its contents, visit the wiki (http://wiki.spiralknights.com/Surprise_Box_Promotion_April_2018).
