The little task button in Spacebar Clicker just traded its old look for a bright yellow school bus. It is a small change, but it points to a much bigger back-to-school update: four new themes that you can only unlock by completing limited-time tasks.

We wanted these themes to feel earned. During the event, they are not for sale in the Extra Shop. Build up your Stone collection, open the Limited Tasks tab, and claim each theme when you reach its goal.

Four Tasks, Four Themes

Each task is a one-time reward. Once you claim a theme, it stays in your collection.

  • 1,000 Stone: Locker Sticker Bomb. A school hallway packed with stickers, headphones, and skate gear. Equip it for 5% more manual CPS.
  • 1,500 Stone: Bunkasai Game Booth Chaos. A lively Japanese school festival classroom with handmade games, prizes, and neon decorations. Equip it for 5% more auto CPS.
  • 2,000 Stone: Friday Night Gym Glow. A school gym filled with disco lights, balloons, and confetti. Equip it for 10% more manual CPS.
  • 2,500 Stone: Haunted School Arcade. A spooky-cute arcade with friendly ghosts, candy, claw machines, and Halloween lights. Equip it for 10% more auto CPS.

There is one important detail: the CPS bonus only works while that theme is equipped. Switching your background now also changes which bonus is active, so choosing a theme is part of how you play.

Easier to Find, Easier to Follow

The new yellow school bus is now the task button. Tap it and you will see separate tabs for Regular Tasks and Limited Tasks, so the seasonal rewards do not get lost in a long list.

The Extra Shop is cleaner too. Under Themes, you can switch between Owned, Purchasable, and Task Rewards. The four event themes appear in Task Rewards until you earn them, then move into your collection.

No task depends on another one. If you already have enough Stone, you can claim every theme you qualify for right away. If you are starting fresh, you can work toward all four at your own pace.

Do Not Miss the Deadline

The event ends at 12:00 a.m. UTC on October 31, 2026. In other words, finish the goals and claim your rewards by the end of October 30 UTC.

Reaching the Stone goal is not the last step. Make sure you open Limited Tasks and press the claim button before time runs out. Any theme you claim is yours to keep after the event.

Start With the School Bus

Open Spacebar Clicker, look for the yellow school bus beside the game, and see how close you are to the first theme.

The hallway could probably use a few more stickers.
