“	The Mafia Wars Valentine's Day Event is coming your way! For this special event, you'll be working on collecting Broken Hearts that'll randomly drop when you do jobs, fight, or rob your opponents. When a heart drops from jobs, fights, or robbing, you'll also get a chance to get a mini-game where you can win up to 5 more hearts! The Broken Hearts will also be giftable from your free gifts page, so when the event is underway, be sure to be generous and share your hearts with your mafia so they'll return the favor. Something important to keep in mind is that the more base energy you have, the harder the job you should select to get your Broken Heart drops - so if you have 1000 energy, doing 2 energy jobs in New York or Italy won't get you heart drops. The goal here is to collect as many Broken Hearts as you can get your hands on - you'll then get to pick from 4 loot items to redeem the hearts for. The more valuable the loot item, the more hearts it'll cost you. If you're really lucky, you'll can also have a chance to loot the rare Golden Hearts, which are equivalent to 5 Broken Hearts. You never know where one will drop or if one might appear when you accept a gift, so be on the lookout.	”

Overview[]

Cupid has invaded Mafia Wars and Valentine's Day is around the corner! To celebrate the Valentine Holiday, a special Valentine's Day Event has arrived to earn Golden and Broken Hearts to collect 4 different Valentine's Day themed items! So skip the wilting roses, teddy bears, chocolate boxes and act selfishly to earn and collect as much Valentine's Day loot as you can!

The Love is Hard to Find Combo Event is our first event where there are multiple ways to get items!

Collect Broken Hearts by

completing jobs
winning fights
robbing properties.
playing the Love is Hard to Find Mini-Game
Free Gifts
posting and clicking on wall posts
purchase from the Marketplace (1 Broken Heart = 1 )

To increase your chances of looting Broken Hearts through jobs, be sure to complete jobs which require higher amounts of energy. For example, completing jobs in New York or Italy which require the lowest amount of energy to complete will only lower your chance of collecting a Broken Heart. Jobs that require a higher percentage of your maximum energy will increase your chances of looting a Broken Heart.

A Valentine mini-game will also be available to increase the chances of collecting extra Broken Hearts. This mini-game will appear at random when completing jobs, fights, or robs and present four doors to choose from with a possibility of discovering up to 5 extra Broken Hearts. The first time you play the game, it's free. You can also replay the game for 1 Reward Point. Good Luck.

In addition, it's also possible to earn Golden Hearts, which are equal to 5 Broken Hearts.
