Does this mean opening each chest for 31 consecutive days, or at the end of the challenge everyone will be given an achievement? We are gamers, please be SPECIFIC in regards to the rules. State it clearly, or state "you have to guess what this means".
You must open all of them. There is already a participation trophy for doing the bare minimum for the first one you open.

They did clearly explain it at the top of this very thread (and yeah, it could be more straightforward and better formatted and internally consistent if a human wrote it, not AI), but it's still clear enough:
Unlock Exclusive Achievements
If you open the revealed game every single day, you will collect exclusive, cat-themed trophies. So cute…

There are 4 trophies:
One for the 1st day you open a gift,
Another for a 10-day streak,
One more for clicking consecutively for 20 days on the front-page calendar,
And a last one for completing the entire month's challenge.

The trophies are unique to this summer event and won’t return. If you miss a day, the streak breaks.

I don't know how "every single day," "entire month," and "if you miss a day" can be misinterpreted as requiring something less than opening them all.

Hello,
i really enjoy the challenge.
I forgot the 16th day but of course i was connected. Can we use one of my joker's to complete the missing day ?
So sad that if we play during the d'Ay, it won't automatize the opening 🥺
Thanks for thinking about it 🤞🤞🙏

As somebody who has so far missed one day, and it was the 15th, making it impossible to complete a streak of 20 days, I'd encourage future editions to do away with the "streak" aspect. If you hit it 20 days in the month, any 20 days, you should get that trophy. I don't know why somebody who only misses day 15 can't get it when somebody who only misses day 5 or day 25 can...
