Sultan’s Game Update Hassan: Meet the Pet Lamb, Join the Sultan’s Feast, and Overcome the Writer’s Block!

Sultan’s Game updated Hassan’s plots and added three new storylines related to the poet since 11th November 2025. This is the latest major update, after The Mirror Visitor content. This time, players can know more about Hassan, including the secret identity of his pet lamb, his craving for fine food, and his writer’s block. The update about Hassan focuses mainly on the story instead of adding more functions to this character. This post explains how to unlock and proceed through the newly added three storylines!

Story 1: Investigate the Hidden Identity of Hassan’s Pet Lamb

Firstly, in the Sultan’s Game update, Hassan has a storyline related to his pet lamb. No matter where Hassan goes, he always brings his lamb, to the point that his competitors insinuate that he may be having a crush on the lamb!

Generally speaking, this series of events is more of an adventure and a meta-gaming experience. It does not bring hefty rewards to players, but the texts are quite engaging when Arzu breaks the fourth wall and realizes his connected fate with other characters from the Fate’s Ledger.

Players can follow the instructions below to explore the whole story:

1. Managing the Estate: Drag Hassan to Methinks to finish writing a poem, and then let Hassan manage the estate.
2. The Poet’s Renown: Place one of Hassan’s poems, and send a noble to host the party for Hassan. Arzu can pass the check directly. The noble follower needs to pass the check of sociability + influence ≥ 8.
3. The Poet’s Lamb: Send Arzu with any two characters from this list (Jenna, Arzuna, Lady Becky, Malkina, twin Arzu) at the same time, and Arzu needs to pass the wisdom + magic ≥ 10 check.
4. Strange Assault: Use Intelligence cards to skip the checks accordingly (gold-tier Omen or Tactics card ➡️ squirrel, gold-tier Secret or Inside Information card ➡️ sparrows, gold-tier Mystique or Opportunity ➡️ toad). Or, have Arzu pass three rounds of checks of magic + wisdom – enemy’s magic + wisdom ≥ 2.
5. A Strange Story: Drag the anomalous present card to Methinks. Send any two characters from this list (Jenna, Arzuna, Lady Becky, Malkina, twin Arzu) to gain two insights.
6. Slip into the Backstage: Drag Fate Poetry Scroll to Methinks and let Arzu read the book. To continue the story, players need to choose “Show Hassan and continue investigation”. Send Hassan to complete this event.
7. Baa, Baa! Enough of That!: Use certain cards to skip the checks accordingly (Rationality card ➡️ squirrel, gold-tier Astronomy card ➡️ sparrows, gold-tier Convictions ➡️ toad). Or, have Arzu pass three rounds of checks of magic + wisdom – enemy’s magic + wisdom ≥ 2. Choose option 2, “We are the same – you don’t have to be my foe,” to continue the story.
8. The Bookshop of Fate: Send Arzu with any character from this list (Jenna, Arzuna, Lady Becky, Malkina, twin Arzu). Arzu needs to pass the check of magic + stealth + insight ≥ 5.
9. The Kindred Bird: The event triggered at this stage is decided by the character players send in The Bookshop of Fate. Players can use this opportunity to break some negative cards, for example, Madness.

Story 2: Sultan’s Feast and Hassan’s Crave for Fine Dining

The second story of Sultan’s Game Hassan’s update is related to Hassan’s craving for fine foods. However, as Hassan becomes more and more famous as a talented poet, the Sultan also wishes to invite Hassan to a dinner at the court. There can’t be a better opportunity to taste the best cooking in the world than attending the banquet at court! Although, does Hassan really enjoy dining with the capricious Sultan?

To unlock this storyline, players need to have a vacant room to build the guesthouse, as well as to have Habib as a follower. Additionally, Zazie has to be alive.

Story 3: Stop Hassan from Writing Cheesy Love Poems

The third story is about how to help Hassan overcome his writer’s block. As talented as him, Hassan has still come to the stage of facing his writer’s block. He is so used to writing love poems and is so fascinated by the nature of love that he cannot pull himself out of drafting more and more cheesy lines about love! Maybe some “loveless” characters can shock Hassan out of his comfort zone!

Players can follow the instructions below to explore the whole story:

1. When We Speak of Love: This event is triggered when there are more than 3 characters possessing passions towards Arzu. Send female followers to this event more than 4 times.
2. Mischief: Send Arzu, not twin Arzu, to pass the check of magic + wisdom + insight ≥ 5.
3. Hassan’s Ordeal: Send Arzu to choose any one character from this list to shock Hassan (Buthayna: if Arzu’s Notoriety ≥ 10, Nawfal: After finishing building Nursery with Nawfal, Abdul: if Arzu’s Influence ≥ 10, Sultan: if Arzu’s Infamy ≥ 10). This event leads to different branches depending on players’ choices.
4. Art Advisor (If choosing Abdul): No check for this event. Hassan’s attributes will increase.

✍🏼Is Sultan’s Game Update Hassan’s Storyline Worth Playing?

All in all, Sultan’s Game update Hassan’s part is heavily story-based and adds no other features to the game. So, if players do not want to play through Hassan’s storyline, it does not matter that much to the general gaming experience and the progress of the game. On the other hand, players may find the storyline about the pet lamb and the love poems rather entertaining. After all, who wouldn’t be curious about Nawfal’s, the Sultan’s, or Abdul’s attitudes towards love and love poems?
