Thanks! but I think I will pass this game. I had enough stress already.

 

going to study that FAQ for my homework tonight LOL

 

Just done my 1st lot, and its great fun - The customers are really cute and if I fail it'll only be because of my useless memory

Great big thumbs up from me - I'd like more games like this

 

No event for me. Seriously, did not start. More "technical difficulties".

 

This is a lovely game, if you have a good memory for three / five variations. It has sweet graphics and the choices seem quite easy at first and for one cake is relatively easy; but trying to hold two or three cakes x three layers from a choice of five each time needs quite a bit of concentration. The prizes are quite good and I would give it 5/10 However, the FAQ isn't as clear as it could be and as I found to my cost is misleading in one instance.

From my playing this game, as you gain points, the cakes increase in number.

Also, the FAQ isn't clear that the timer giver is a decoration (newer players may not realise where to find this).

In the FAQ is seems as if you click on the ticket and then 'add' the booster, not that if you click on the ticket, you can't access the time-boost, so have to do it first. As soon as I clicked on a play ticket, the game presented itself and I couldn't find how to get at the timer, thus wasting time on that and lost one play ticket in the process.

As it doesn't require much in the way of growing and it's a cute game with nice graphics, I shall continue with it; though I think I'll aim for one cake and not try to get all right, but hope by sheer luck I get more than one.

I think it's a good effort by BP to be innovative and a game that keeps you interested. It requires no effort to produce the tickets and you don't have to mill anything if you don't want the timer boost.

So I'm giving it a partial thumbs up, because even though the drawbacks I mentioned above can be frustrating, for the most part it's a winner.

 

i harvested over 150 trees and 34 stables on my two Baha fields this morning and got 2 (two) cake vouchers. With a drop rate like that, we should I bother playing this event.

 

I love the fact that there is no event crop its nice to grow what I need to and do the event and the game is fun

 

I am really enjoying this event. In fact, I have nearly finished it despite a late start due to technical problems but once I got into it and got the gist of what was required, I was cooking with gas!

Love the graphics and the game play and the prizes are terrific. I do enjoy a game where there is not much waiting around to achieve anything. Instant gratification is a winner!

I have to confess to being a little disappointed with recent events, the long crops, low drop rates and mediocre prizes did not really do much to interest me - even though I did still participate, of course! I couldn't even be bothered to write feedback as everything I would have said had already been posted. But this one has everything I want from an event. Definite WOW factors! Please, more events like this.

 

I like this event! It is basically free and it has some great prizes. By "free", I mean you don't have to grow anything. You can get vouchers from your regular farming. You don't have to mill the time extenders, which s a good thing since the mill Time is very long! . You even get some points for incorrect cakes. I had trees and animals out and had 11 vouchers plus the 3 free ones, then 2 more with a very small partial harvest. This has got me almost halfway through the event.

The only complaint I have is that I hate it when my magic trees don't give the event drop!

Thanks BP, for a break in the constant stream of events that keep us from regular farming!

 

So far, so good:
Good prizes and easy to understand instructions
Don't have to grow crops so we can increase inventory of tree fruit and/or animals/workshop items

Only problem - when you make a mistake and click the wrong cake you can't correct it before submitting the design.

 

I'm really enjoying this event and agree with all the good things said about it.

 

You should give this a try - no stress - no crops to harvest and you don't have to mill if you don't want to.
Good prizes: Weasel Hole, PS, BB, Wonder Stables, etc.

I was stressed way out and disappointed from the last event.

Note: Drops do not come from crops.

 

I know this game was listed as medium difficulty, but I thought that would be from the gameplay itself. Nope, that medium difficulty, I am convinced, is from the abysmally low rate of drops. I have a young farm, have as many trees and pens out as I can afford, and I got one drop. One. At this point, I don't know if I can get enough vouchers to finish the event. And the prizes are things my young farm really needs!

 

I like a lot of the event except the drop rate. I have yet to get 1 drop at all not one! the mini game is fun the biggest problem is getting to play it at all.

 

ID: 39261141 I to am having troubles getting drops. I collected from a few of my animals and my tree thing holding 6 xxl trees. The only thing so far was just the ep item for me? And please do not tell me I got so many drops I am talking about the event drop only nothing else but the event drop. For some reason I think I needed to clarify what drop I am talking about.

 

im not getting drops either entire field of trees on baha 0 drops green meadow full of carnations 0 drops.in 2 days got 30 drops. this is sickening. one milled product is 2:42 min. prizes r not worth it .will just keep milling pf.

 

You don't get drops for crops (carnations). You also don't have to mill event products. Drops for trees, pens and workshops only.

Just finished -- If you continue after you finish you still get rewards.

Note: Event is almost over and I received some CACs, PF and HHC (after I was finished) that make up for all of the ones I used in the previous event but I wasn't able to finish my Cloud Row I was going for -- need a way to get the EP's from last event without having to buy them. Since there was a lag in the game I don't think that we should have to buy them.

 

Finished!

I liked it a lot.
The drop rate was terrible BUT we got the cake shop entry tickets from the patisserie. Boosted with the time booster, its giving enough tickets to play the game to the 1000, IF you can remember the cakes and if you are quick enough to bake them in time.
Best case scenario: 1000 points with 32 vouchers.
Graphics are great. Prices very good.. After lots of events needing barn burning and constant growing and hoping for good drops, this event was really to my liking.

 

liking this one, my favourite even so far. Had a power cut all day with sleep as well not logged on for almost 24 hours so lost out. Therefore hope the drops improve a little bit but I have completed my first ever could row
