TL;DR
- Pixels’ “Choco-lot of Love” quest deadline is February 18 at 17:00 UTC.
- Players must craft and deliver a Chocolate Box to the NPC Winona.
- Three Love Grubs spawn daily across Terra Villa to source ingredients.
18 February 2026 at 17:00 UTC marks the deadline for Pixels’ limited-time “Choco-lot of Love” quest, which tasks players with crafting and delivering a Chocolate Box to an in-game NPC. The event overlaps with a compact calendar of real-world energy conferences on 17–18 February that industry participants will use to pursue deals and network.
The coincidence highlights two parallel rhythms: a short, action-driven game window that requires daily engagement, and an energy-events calendar that concentrates deal-making and policy discussion into discrete meetings over the next 48 hours.
Pixels’ quest mechanics and participation details
Players must learn the Chocolate Box recipe, source ingredients and deliver the finished item to Winona in Terra Villa Central. The event requires daily play: three “Love Grubs” spawn each day across Terra Villa and surrounding areas, and the objective resets daily through the event window. Successful delivery will grant a reward described by the Pixels X account as a “sweet, surprise reward.”
Community guides on platforms such as YouTube and Substack are active sources of optimization tips, and creator codes can offer in-game discounts, lowering marginal acquisition costs for participants who rely on creator-linked offers. The structure favors players who can commit to daily scavenging before the event closes at 17:00 UTC on 18 February 2026.
Energy conferences this week and strategic context
- 17 February — Guyana Energy Conference and Supply Chain Expo (Georgetown, Guyana)
- 18 February — NAPE Summit (Houston, Texas)
These gatherings will convene industry, government and service providers for deal discussions and sector briefings. The Guyana conference is positioned as a regional forum for collaboration, while NAPE is described as a marketplace where asset transactions and exploration deals are negotiated.
Organizers and industry trackers such as the Canadian Global Energy Forum, Wood Mackenzie and Efficiency Canada are cited as useful calendars for planning attendance. Community groups including CEP Toronto and CALEP provide local engagement channels. Emerging themes referenced for attendees include the integration of high-performance computing and artificial intelligence into energy operations, cleantech deployment in mining, and broader transitions toward hydrogen and smart energy technologies.
“Successful delivery yields a ‘sweet, surprise reward,'” the Pixels X account wrote, underscoring the event’s mix of limited scarcity and incentive design.
For investors and product teams, the implications are practical. Game players face a clear participation cost in time and, potentially, in creator-linked purchases; planning daily activity is necessary to capture rewards. Energy professionals should treat the 17–18 February meetings as concentrated windows for origination and partnership work, with immediate follow-up likely required to convert conversations into commitments.
Compliance and market teams will monitor outcomes that could influence asset flows and partnership structures emerging from these events.
Participants should note the two near-term dates—17–18 February 2026 for the energy conferences and the 18 February 2026 at 17:00 UTC deadline for the Pixels quest—and plan access, travel or in-game engagement accordingly.
