I was scrolling through my old phone gallery this morning, and guess what popped up? Screenshots from that absolutely adorable Genshin Impact web event featuring chibi Albedo and Klee exploring Inazuma after the Irodori Festival! Even though it’s 2026 now, the memory is still so sweet. If you missed it back then or just want a trip down memory lane with me, let’s relive the whole thing together – plus, I’ll walk you through exactly how it worked, because who knows when HoYoverse will drop something similar again? 🌼

This was a clicker-style web event that required logging in daily, managing a cute little resource called Brilliant Leaves, and sending our two favorite Mondstadt characters on short trips around Inazuma. The payoff? Mora, Hero’s Wit, Mystic Enhancement Ore, and those precious 120 Primogems. But honestly, the real treasure was watching super-deformed Klee hopping around with her backpack. 💥

📱 How We Got In – Scanning the Mysterious QR Code

Getting into the web event could feel like a mini puzzle, especially if you were on PlayStation. I remember helping a friend on PS5 and we had to get creative. The trick was simple once you knew it: open your in-game mail from Paimon, find the event announcement, and tap that email to generate your personal QR code. That code was your ticket to the browser-based game.

Here’s the breakdown that saved us back then:

  • On iOS: Just open the Camera app – the moment it detected the QR code, a notification popped up with the link. So smooth.

  • On Android: Google Lens was the hero. Point it at the code on your TV or monitor, and it would grab the URL instantly.

  • On PC: honestly, I just used my phone to scan the screen too. No big deal.

Once you’ve got the page open, you’d log into your account and select the right server. A little friendly reminder: double-check you’re on the same server where your journey lives! Otherwise you’d just stare at an empty event. 🙈

🍃 Gathering Brilliant Leaves Before You Travel

Now, the heart of the event mechanic: Brilliant Leaves. You needed these to send Klee and Albedo on their trips, and each trip gave you a random inspiration album and progress toward the full rewards. But here’s the twist – if you just spammed the “Go on a Trip” button without claiming your daily stash of leaves first, you’d run out fast. I learned that the hard way on day one. 😂

Always hit that little "+" symbol at the bottom left of the screen before doing anything else. That button let you collect leaves from the day’s tasks, which were all things you’d naturally do in Genshin anyway. Here’s what we had to check off daily:

Task How to Complete
Login once a day Just hop into the game – easiest leaf ever.
2 Daily Commissions Complete any two from the Adventurers’ Guild.
Use 40 Original Resin Spend resin on domains, bosses, or ley lines.
Visit the official Facebook page This one was cheeky – you could just click “Go” then immediately close the tab, and it still counted. No real visit needed. 🤫

I found the Facebook step hilarious. Genshin really knows how to boost their metrics without any effort from us. Pro tip: always grab all your leaves, then send Albedo and Klee out. Trips reset daily at 4 AM server time, so you didn’t want to waste a single leaf.

🎨 How to Unlock Every Unique Inspiration Album

This part was both exciting and a test of patience. Each time you sent the duo out, you got to pick one accompanying item – like a Kamera, a sketchbook, or a snack. The trick was to choose a different item every trip. If you kept picking the same one, you’d only get duplicate inspiration albums, and that meant missing out on some truly adorable memory fragments.

Wait times were the real gacha. Sometimes Klee and Albedo would return in just a couple of minutes. Other times, they’d be gone for three or even four hours. It turned the event into a little daily rhythm: claim leaves, start a trip, go do real life stuff, come back to a cute album entry. I developed a habit of checking my phone between resin spending sessions.

All the inspiration albums were illustrated with that soft, storybook-like art style Genshin does so well. Some had Albedo painting landscapes, others had Klee trying to fish (or fish-bombing, let’s be real). Collecting them all felt like completing a tiny picture book.

🎁 The Sweet (But Strict) Reward Schedule

The event ran for only one week, which meant missing even a single day could cost you the top prize. Here’s what we all fought for:

Full Rewards List

  • 30,000 Mora 💰

  • 10 Hero’s Wit 📖

  • 8 Mystic Enhancement Ore ⚒️

  • 120 Primogems 💎

That’s basically a free wish and a half! For a web event, it was generous. I remember some friends who logged in on the last day only to realize they were too far behind. So the lesson stands: do those daily commissions and resin activities consistently, even if the event seems casual.

📸 Don’t Forget the Real Prize – Chibi Animation Screenshots

Beyond the rewards, the best part was the super cute SD animations of Klee and Albedo. Every time they left or came back, there was a little cutscene – Klee would wave excitedly, Albedo would give a gentle smile. I must have taken twenty screenshots. Even now, in 2026, those chibi expressions still make me grin. If you ever participated, I hope you saved yours.

Sometimes I wish HoYoverse would make these web events a permanent mini-game in the Teapot or something. Until then, we have our galleries of memories. Let’s hope future events bring back this level of charm – and if you ever see a QR code in your mail, now you know exactly how to dive in. 🌸
