Delayed for balancing changes. You can see the edit below to the world fair buildings. Announcement coming shortly. Should be on Beta March 3. Still pending more changes.
To see our WIP post during the testing you can see it here. And another post here as it was nearing launch on Beta. You can see how much it's changed in just a short period of time.
We will probably just copy/paste it here anyways because we're lazy and the information is accurate but not in a pretty format.
Note the event store is more complicated than previous events. We will wait until it goes live on Beta where we can capture more images as it's easier to show than to explain.

For the 14th Anniversary the merge mechanic is back. This picture is from last year. This year the box mechanic is gone so it will look different.
We'll go over the broad strokes as this is a well-known mechanic at this point but there are changes this year.
Spawn movable gems. Cost 10 energy (event currency). These spawned gems can be used to unlock locked gems or combine with other gems to make it stronger.
Gems:
The board is filled with gems locked behind glass and a free gem that can be moved. You can match the free gem with a locked gem of the same color and level.
You can create more free gems by using the spawner button. It takes event currency "energy" to spawn a moveable gem.
Once you match a gem it breaks the glass and levels up. (You can also match free gems to level up and free higher level gems behind glass.)
Unlocking gems advance the prize bar and you get a small prize.
Locked gems have a key part. There are only two variables. If you match gems with complementary key parts (color, level and type all match) it creates a full key.
New this year is we will not be collecting, storing and spending keys.
When you combine a gem so it has a top and bottom key part (form a full key) the key is consumed immediately (along with the gem). In it's place there will be a colorless gem (with no key). This colorless gem can be combined with any color gem and level up when merged.
We did not like the change as it took away player agency to use keys when they liked a daily prize but those are gone to and replaced with the store so it makes sense.
There are three boosters.
Gem Mines Booster spans free gems so you are not using event currency.
Gem Pickaxe Booster breaks a higher level gem into two lower level pieces. This is very handy when you have a lv4 gem unlocked and two lv3 gems behind glass for example. When you break it in two it retains the key or key fragment it had originally.
Prismatic Essence Booster turns all gems of a single color into colorless gems. These gems can merge with any color. Once they are merged they take on the new color so they then can be put in the converter.
Treasure Chests: I'm just going to interchange treasure chests and boxes so you're just going to have to be ok with it. are gone as they system is automated. Instead of chests we have more tasks! Yeah! Just what players were asking for!
You will always have three active tasks. Easy, medium and hard. These tasks are designed to get you to use more event currency and thus buy more currency.
Completing tasks rewards are store currency, world challenge progress and grand prize progress.
Tasks do not reset at server reset and there is no limit to the amount of tasks you can do.
When the board resets (at server reset) the tasks are still there. Unclaimed rewards will be collected automatically. When you complete a task there is no strategic advantage in not collecting it immediately.
Double rewards are back so the first easy, medium and hard task pays double the rewards. That's double store item currency and double grand prize progress.
World prize progress is not doubled.
If your medium and/or hard task sucks and you can't beat it you can reroll it. You get one free reroll per day and additional rerolls cost event currency that goes up with each use. If you were partially done a task and then reroll you do not get partial credit.
All quests will be at the bottom of this page when they become available.
World event is back. It had placeholder graphics so this was what it looked like last year.
There is a separate store for world challenge progress.
We could not confirm if the "Chamber of Quantum Transcendence" would be available in the event shop.

Edited: Removing the Intelligence Bureau building that were included in the packet to change placeholder buildings. The intelligence bureau is a new GbG building and can be found here with the new GbG championship information.
Gold league building
Updated to correct incorrect inclusion of Intelligence Bureau buildings which are part of GbG not this event.
We'll be archiving this post as we wait for the announcement to see if there are further changes.
