# Events

Events are exciting global conditions that temporarily modify the game rules. They can be used to test new features, incentivize certain actions, drive a storyline, and generally add more fun and excitement.

[Active Events](/golem-overlord/gameplay/scavenging-claim/active-events.md) create icons and timers all across the User Interface, usually near the stats or functions that they impact. There will always be an icon near the [Action Menu](/golem-overlord/gameplay/action-menu.md) that you can click to read more about the Event's effects and duration. The [Action Log](/golem-overlord/gameplay/action-log.md) will also alert you to new events.
