Considering the rewards you instantly receive with even the shortest run, the extra keys from the achievements, and the plethora of free stuff to obtain from the shop, Subway Surfers further provides additional means for you to earn even more freebies. Each update on the game starts a new season and, with it, comes a a whole new season hunt and word hunt that can earn you various rewards for playing actively.

The season hunt event can be progressed within 20 days and requires you to collect special season tokens to reach new ranks and claim goodies. You can grab a special token on each run early so one way of claiming rewards fast is restarting as soon as you nab one. Although there are chances to earn more within the same run, it can become more challenging the farther you progress.


The word hunt, on the other hand, needs to be accomplished within a day and rewards become better as you complete the letters for the special word after completing in subsequent days. Given that super mystery boxes are up for grabs starting on day 5, you would want to complete the word as soon as possible once you log in on the game.

For both the season hunt and the word hunt events, always take note of the remaining time you have for completing objectives. As much as possible, you would want to make the most out of these events so be sure to play actively within its duration. The season hunt can be especially difficult to fully achieve given that you need to reach stage 30 of the reward set, which requires 150 special tokens.

If you browse through the event rewards, however, the final reward, which is a limited edition character, should be enough to entice you to push further. In addition, mystery boxes you earn within the season can reward you with tokens you need to collect to unlock different outfits for the new character.
