This seems quite a fun event if you're at that level. A bit of thought needed - whether to throw ccs at lots of stables or juggle a few stables. Remembering that we need other animals for the timed part. I love geese, especially at Christmas!

 

I dont see the point of pigs rabbits and sheep.

 

geez....i'm still trying to finish the current event....

 

Hmmmmmm... Not too sure about this one, but I will do it anyway, and only because I am home and the weather outside is nasty. You need to grow 38 animals (32 of which are geese), all timed of course, give them away and then get a total of 48 geese back along with a handful of other mediocre rewards.... and of course, no stars and at the same time trying hard not to have a senile moment and forget to start the timer. It would have been more interesting and enticing if one of the rewards had been a production pen, or upgrade of one for the goose related product that will no doubt come in when 'Goose' breeding starts ... Golden eggs perhaps?

 

I really like the goose stables, they look like they belong on a proper old fashioned farm They remind me of H.C. Andersen stories

The quest is easy, and there is lots of time to finish, even with other events running parallel. It is not really a "must do" quest, for me more of a "why not" quest there are no big rewards, but on the other hand they are almost for free, so why not

I like the idea of a timed quest to introduce the new animal, it could have been a bit more interesting, but with all the other events going on, it is fine

 

I agree...it is a nice way to introduce a new animal but there is really no incentive to do the event as we have to buy the pens and there is no upgrade or big awards. Even the PF as the final reward is minimal. Easy event and plenty of time to do it.

 

With all the (high) demanding events the last months, I don't really mind an event that's hardly asking anything. With 6 days to produce 32 geese, granted, through a timer, I think we've got a nice amount of time to complete the event. Okay, the rewards aren't that magnificent, but since we hardly have to do anything, I don't mind

 

I think it's good that we can buy a stable in the shop, it's been awhile since we had a new animal that we didn't have to beg, barter, or steal for. The timed quest is okay, I just have to remember to turn it ON before clicking the harvest button!

 

A nice and different way of introducing a new animal. Prizes in this event not great but then event is easy and requirements not very high so that balances out. I think perhaps the offer of an Orange goose pen with a higher requirement at the top level would have been more incentive.
Asking for sheep, pigs and rabbits added an extra dimension to the timed theme of this event - good idea.
Graphics good as ever - love the old style of goose !

 

I would have loved that

 

As others have said, the prizes aren't the best, but then it's a very simple quest. The rewards are fine for what's required. I agree with the others that an orange pen for a higher requirement would have made it more fun, but c'est la vie.

For those who can't or aren't participating, check your market prices. You might be able to make a nice bundle selling blackberries and sorghum.

 

This should be a nice relaxing event...crossing fingers that I won't forget the timers...again!! I too would have liked to see an orange upgrade as a reward since this is the introduction of a new animal. But overall looks okay.

 

I agree it has been awhile since we could buy a new animal stable with CC's,I am looking forward to this,i already bought 12 stables Finished this event today already,very easy

 

Like
Loads of time
Not loads of animals needed
Nice to buy a new animal for cc

Dislike
No stars
Poor prizes

I did this one simply because I wanted to raise some geese, but there was no incentive for me to do it.

 

Finished the quest but wonder why we need another new animal? We don't have room for the ones we currently have.

Also wonder why the goose pen makes no noise when harvested. Geese aren't that quiet.

 

It was a nice touch.
We would have had to buy/get the pens/stalls anyway, so a nice easy quest to go along with it to me was a nice little bonus.
The event was relaxing once you got going with it, a little warning would have been nice, time to tear down and not throw time and half done items out.
Bad enough I ate stuff for crops, and the last of the time was just wasted, had I had even 6 hours heads up I would have not eaten them. would have eaten something else.

But the geese are nice both in looks and in time. I like a fast to grow animal at this point refreshing.
Can't believe I am saying this but, if an event is not going to have stars, then they all should be this easy so new people can play and win, getting the feet wet, no pun intended....

 

Simple event with little amounts of rewards but I liked that you end up with more geese then you put into it. I'm also running low on PF so any bit helps.

Disliked that the event started before the last one ended despite finishing it before Country doodles ended. I'm one that loves hearing the animal sounds when harvesting. It seems simple to include the sound before releasing a new pen. I even made sure all the sound was on before lying the first pen down. So, I was a little disappointed with this.

Over all, I still give this thumbs up

 

I was thinking it is about time we have geese on the farm, for a long time I was wondering why we don't have Geese, while a less important birds, or even some exotic birds are there, I am happy to see them in the farm, the quest was easy and it was a nice introduction, and also I like that we have good time to prepare for Goose breeding when it comes.

 

I also noticed that the geese make no sound when harvested...and I don't like that at all But on a positive note, the stalls are so beautiful that I will be tempted to leave them out long after I have collected as many geese as I will ever need And for future reference plez plez make all stalls make some sort of sound when harvested...that is all part of the fun and charm!
