Presents
During the Winter Event, Special Monsters that are slain will drop presents on the ground.
Right clicking these presents as a dwarf will pick them up, providing bulk scavenger rewards and increasing the counter on the sidebar for each present collected. Presents collected count towards the Special Delivery quest.
Right clicking presents as a monster will destroy them, preventing dwarves from getting bonus resources.
Snowballs
Players can right click on snow layers to collect snowballs which can be thrown at other players to disrupt them.
Fruitcake
Dwarves will sometimes discover fruitcake while digging gravel or killing monsters.
