    Start of Game:
    Graphics appear to be good as expected for this type of event.
    Hope the drops are good.
    When the keys are divided evenly love the Temple Events. When the keys are disproportionately one type hate the Temple Events. Example: +15 Circle +10 Square +5 Triangle and still needing 2 Wave Keys

    Middle of Game:
    Finished 2nd path and have 1 left - hope the drops keep coming - plenty of time left. Wanted an Axolotl and a Sandalwood but no dice- not even a Hippo or Durian.

    End of Game:

    Finished the Temple but I still have Task 4/4 to finish in order to complete the entire event--need 59 more drops. Just received my last 2 trees and hoping for a Sandalwood or 2.

    As long as the drops keep coming this will continue to be a no stress event.

    Finished: Did not receive a Sandalwood tree after harvesting last 2 trees. 38 hours left and completely finished -- that is the way a "Medium" event should be - no stress, sufficient drops and plenty of time to finish.

    Well Done BP!

    I like the look of this event. No event crops and just drops to worry about. I am hoping these will be gauged to give everyone a good chance of finishing the event. :)

    If I understand the FAQs correctly, this time there is no random factor to which keys we get. We win them from our donations of Baha Animals and Fruits. I missed finishing the last event like this (and maybe the one before, I forget how many of these types of event we have had) because I was waiting for particular keys and they failed to show. So this is definitely an improvement for me. Looking forward to this event. :inlove:

    The prizes look pretty good too and I have no doubt that the graphics will be, as always, superb.
    :inlove:
    Thanks for listening to our feedback, it's appreciated. ;)

    A bit of a barn emptier for me, glad we were able to stock up on the last one but I don't know if I will bother with this one. Like that we get an EP giver at the start for nothing. My park is not full so every little helps.

    I cannot play this event even IF I wanted ...which I don't ...I am getting lag ever few seconds and i mean seconds ...I limped all the way in the last event with it...couldn't and wouldn't do that again ..It isn't pleasant to play like this and something needs to be done about it
    I tried a different browser ...but that didn't help :(
    I play other games and don't get this ...Only in this game that i get it

    I like these Temple Events. I love that the keys are not random this time. I don't think the requirements are out of line, although I don't know how it works if someone is limited in one area, can they proceed through the temple if they don't get a certain type of key? I am not thrilled with the drop rate - but for me at least, the math equals out to being able to easily finish in the time allowed. I guess since I did the donation parts in five minutes total, the idea of having to wait several days because I need drops is a little aggravating... but since there is no special farming that needs to happen, it isn't really a disruption.

    There have been several comments that the prizes are stingy - I think they are fine, for the amount of effort required. They are not stellar, but if every event gave the top in prizes, the game would cease to be as challenging and I, for one, like the challenge - it's why I'm still playing six years later. Can't say that about any other game that I've tried :)

    Good work devs.

    OK.. Feedback:

    As there was a lot of rumors already in the grapevine, I could prepare a lot. Unfortunately the demanded donations are a lot higher than the last temple event (eg animals was 110K, now 198K). But that's ok. inflation is everywhere ;)

    Graphics are really fab.
    With the preparation done, it was easy to donate all animals and treefruit within a few minutes.
    Drop rate is not too bad here.

    Prizes are soso... but I take, whatever I get from the events. A cloud row would have been great to get... Or even givers from the last temple event to complete existing cloud row.

    All in all I like the event concept and it is definitely doable.

    I am a relatively new farm, so I'm struggling with this event! The donations are too high for some of us who do not have all the trees, or even animals opened in Baha yet, or been around long enough to have a filled barn. Given that the donation rate is even lower for the lower trees/animals...what to do?!.
    I do have a few pinks on Baha (4) and 5 reds, and hippos(3), flamingos(7), axolotl (3), anteater (7), tigers, red pandas, etc...but they don't seem to be getting very many drops.
    I also have tons of the newer trees that don't have to be 'unlocked' such as 12 choc. vine trees, 7 sandalwoods, 8 durian, 7 Acacia, Wampees, dragonbloods, etc. etc.
    I actually thought I'd have decent drops - or at least 'doable' drops.

    Did a 2nd partial harvest and got only 5 drops from one field, and -0- from the other. At this rate, I'll need 2 weeks to finish!:oops:

    If anyone has any suggestions, they would be appreciated!:)

  9. Don't worry Lily_pink, we've all been there. This event will come round again, so do what you can and check out the strategy thread. If you can put out as many trees and animals as possible, that will give you a higher yield than crops I found. My advice, do what you can, don't stress and enjoy it. Do the silver of each level then go back and choose which keys you would find most useful. Also ask on the relevant thread for anyone to send drops to you - it's a great help.

    I found this another great event, relatively stress free and I was able to use up some tree fruits and animals (sloth mainly) which were sitting idle in my barn. Great graphics and a second thumbs up to BP for this. I like that you aren't waiting on a random key - as happened last time and I (like quite a few others) didn't finish it.

    Once again, to my great surprise, I don't have anything to complain about. :D

    :inlove: Thanks to all at BP! I have no con. I am having fun with your event.
    The graphics are beautiful, funny and fun to explore. No random keystones. Good prizes, everything is useful to my farm.
    The highlight was receiving an Axolotl Pool from the wonder stables.
    I don't know if I will finish, but the nice thing is being able to choose your path through the Temple.
    Two events in a row, no stress. I chose this farm game for its casual rating. It is great to have events that adhere to that rating. :)

    I like this format of getting the icons in this Temple event. Loved the graphics and the storyline. I liked that the event was limited to certain lands, so that you could continue to farm for other events or tasks.

    Thanks for hearing our concerns with the previous formats used in the temple. You get 2 1/2 thumps up out of three. ;)

    I really like this event. It was fun but I can't go any further due to my being fairly new still to the game, not being able to have enough tree fruit and animals to donate in order to complete it. So my only suggestion would be to have an option to donate crops too instead of just tree fruit and animals because for those of not far enough along in the game, we can't continue playing.

    Thank you for the encouragement, HoppalongCassidy! It is most welcome! I have filled every little nook and cranny with the highest barn value of trees, and highest animals I have.

    Mooboy kindly sent me a drop, and igm'd me with a reminder to m-o-v-e my trophies (!!!) which I had totally forgotten about!! That should help the drop rate by 19%...and I have noticed a small increase already. WoooHooo!!

    Also, I have posted in the SOS thread - and several wonderful farmers have responded....one especially sweet and generous person, whom you would all know if I mentioned her little 4-footed name(s) (teehee), sent from three of her farms!!!
    As has another g-r-e-a-t neighbor, from 3 of her farms!!!
    I am overwhelmed at the giving natures of the farmers on this Forum!!

    So, whether or not I can finish....this is still the finest and best game, ever - just because of people like you all!:inlove: You are incredible!!!:inlove::inlove:

    I only did the part that came from drops. This is the 1st event ever, that I have not been interested in and chose Not to do. I felt....the prizes did not justify the input.

    I liked this one. it was pretty simple and as long as you gad plenty of inventory in your barn it wasn't very hard. loved the graphics and the theme. the drops were good. i loved the exp giver and the prizes were ok. i wish they would have let us donate crops too for the keys, but i did good with what I was given.

    Only thing i liked about this event was the good percentage of drops
    The Rewards wasn't that great for the amount wanted from my barn...so didn't complete it
    I have enough curtains and crate givers
    More events like this and I wont be playing them

    Has taken 7 years to get my barn and nothing in this event was worth donating it for

    Events used to be exciting and looked forward to them...I don't anymore

    And am sad to read that the scarecrows and flowers wont be around to get anymore to complete the cloud rows

    I quite enjoyed this event. I liked not having to grow lots of stuff. The prizes were okay for the work needed - I've done a lot more for a lot less reward! 8)

    I know the requirements were high - it is a bit tough on lower level farmers but if you make it too easy, there would be no challenge. We would all prefer to keep our barns intact during events but that's the choice we all make - to give it up or keep it! I don't mind giving up stuff I have already accumulated - it is better than having to grow it all in the timescale given when real life can (and usually does) get in the way. :D

    The drops were okay - not too many so it could be done in a day but not too nail-bitingly tough at the end. Of course, it goes without saying, the graphics were fab. :inlove:

    very pleased with this event and also the prizes. Happy with an axoloti at long last and a sandalwood tree. I did prepare ahead for this event but didnt find it too difficult. Very very pleased to have just one item to place in the park with a super EP rather than another cloud row!
