"Additional Info:
Penalty System:

• If you click the screen too rapidly without hitting a correct item, a pop up opens advising you to take your time. The Bonus Timer continues counting down during this pop up."

Very fun! If you do not know English, you often don't even know what to look for. Then you have to click here and there. Now it will also be punished.

Or did I misunderstand?

Not to mention some items you know, but you must hit just right spot of that item. Sometimes it requires several hits to get it.

 

After playing several games on all four farms, I can say that accurately touching the items in the picture is a problem. For example, the pair of candlesticks does not register if I touch between them, only if I touch one of them. Also, the matchbox in the monster lair is very hard to get to register because it is so small. Some of the items (all the glass jars) are so small it is hard to tell what is in them. This particular game has gotten much harder since the last version we played. If you are going to make the game harder, we deserve better rewards.

 

I used to like this event but now it feels like a chore because it is so time-consuming, the mini game mouse movements are jerky, the items don't always disappear if you click on them a hair wrong and I have trouble seeing some of the items.

I used to be able to get all the items on the 90 second game or nearly all, but now it's just a few if im lucky.
27 games in i've got 1500 points and the rewards that require 27000 points or so seem like a bad joke

 

I really like this event, although I admit it would be as enjoyable without being able to use touch screen for selections.

I do have 1 request though (feedback) ... Can someone please Fix the candlesticks in the apartment. Both this event and the last time it ran, I need to click them several times, and all around them, before they will register. The click field must be so small or overlapping with the parrot, or something. Its not just once or occasionally, its every single time. Thank you.

 

I had the game suddenly log me out in the middle of the minigame twice today. When signing back on, the minigame had lost time but the number of found objects was back to zero. That doesn't seem entirely fair.

 

Yup, I agree...this event was a pass for me.

 

I had that happen also. I got to all the objects with 5 seconds left and earned 135 points and it logged out. When I got back on, I was at the same scene, 23 seconds and 0 objects found. The next 3 games were all all logged out before it started working correct again.

 

Turns out this is MUCH easier playing in the browser than in the Client.

 

well ive placed a load of xxl yggrasil and xxl chapel oaks on my magic glade in the hope of getting some magnifying glasses drops for hint helps......... just harvested the field...got ZERO drops/magnifying glasses! what a load of "b+^&*%$£"

 

Having the minigame interrupted is a Farmerama Disaster.
This needs to be fixed permanently.​

I have had to modify my gameplay to counteract the possibility of an interruption. Mainly, I avoid producing anything in the Artisan's Village whilst this event is on to avoid having a 'completion' message coming up while I am on the clock, trying to find the 60 items.

This is not a new or isolated anomaly. ​

Bigpoint is killing this game by letting these problems go on for years without seeming to care in the least about

fixing them.
Get it Sorted!​

 

As a long time player couldn't agree more

 

I have a love/hate relationship with this event. Love the prizes, absolutely hate the chore it is and the amount of time it takes to play just over 200 games to get to the end. This event is the most time consuming of all of the events in terms of minigame time commitment.
