So... I do enjoy the theme and graphics, but honestly, The Flash himself would not click through those selections before running out of time.

 

Timer is far to fast.

 

I have enjoyed this game platform in the past. The timer is to fast for the amount of detail that needs to be remembered IMO. After three rounds I will be quitting this event because I simply cannot do it............I regret having sacrificed all my super grow and seeder time and ripping up my game fields for this event. I wish all who are able to do this event, good fortune.

 

This game does not appear to have been tested prior to implementing.

I have had quite a few mini-games where it does not give me the 3 choices for the next valentines gift. Sometimes it skips the ribbon and other times it give me the first 3 and then skips the box for gift (it starts by asking the type of chocolates. I also agree that there is not enough time (even if it were working correctly).

 

I like the concept of this event but the speed is ridiculous. Impossible to do without the Chocolate Boost.
It does get easier with practice - although I have just started the three gift part and I am not sure if I will be able to keep up.

I'm not all that keen on the prizes either, except the Cloud Rows. I would have preferred more non EP items to choose from in the Shop. I don't have any idea if I have any of these or if they are useful at all. Too many to check! Unless I find out otherwise, I will probably go for the Crates.

You probably wonder why I am doing this event with all this negative feedback - I just love events and I have really enjoyed other events like this. You never know, I might come back with something positive to say.

 

I have always enjoyed these events. But I agree with the above, the time is much shorter than usual. In addition, there are more similarities in the choices, and it gets confusing when you are trying to rush. I understand that you wish to make it challenging but this is a bit over the top.

I do appreciate the chance to get some old givers. In particular, the Valentine's Rooster has been on my wish list for a very long time, so i was happy to see him available.

I am not sure how I feel about the global component. I was playing when there used to be LOTS of global competitions and they seldom ended well. I guess we'll just have to wait and see about this one.

 

It's hard to do even with chocolate boost because it takes 10 seconds...
When you hover the mouse over the chocolate boost, it says 45 seconds.
impossible to memorize

 

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is struggling with this event - I was starting to worry about my memory!
Ridiculously short amount of time allowed to memorise items that look so similar makes this event unenjoyable

 

Anyone having trouble with the mini-game, please consider trying out a different method such as using the camera on your phone or using screenshots. If you don't know how, feel free to drop by the strategy thread and ask for help!

 

I already took a screenshot, thinking it might help - but it didn't help me very much at all! I have played this type of event previously and never found one this hard to do

 

I'm sparing my breath to repeat, what everybody else already gave as feedback and where I agree 100%!
In addition, again, there is the global progress bar, but NO measurement at all on it.
It's all left to BPs grace if the bar is correct or not.
For the future, global progress bars should have the value in numbers, as there were more than once errors in the display.
This way, players could SEE, how far the community got and how much is still missing.
But as always I don't expect BP to change anything or to listen to the players

 

I had to stop doing this event after three tries. Way too fast for an old fart like me. Too bad, would have been fun.

 

I was okay until we went to three items. It is just too fast with out taking picture with phone. Only way I finished. I love this with the cakes but this one is harder as the items don't show up the way you look at it. Should be candy, box then top. With box first it throw you off. I agree that we should be able to see number of the community. No way to tell were we are at. I also don't like only getting drops from one field. I have way more crops and no drops. Have switched to longer crops in hope of using up.

 

I agree with the above - too fast....and the drop rate is so bad I actually have too many c-r-o-p-s and not enough drops to use them!!

 

I usually like this type of event and finish easily. However this one was way too fast for me and I've been playing for almost 10 years. Also i have more crops then drops so i finally gave up.

 

Greetings lovely farmers,
