The Golden Kingdom

A two part event where event crops must be grown on the Bahamarama Plantation to mill the Stone Tablet to play a tetris like mini-game that awards Ancient Pouches that turn into one of the three seeds (Water Berry, Valley Rose or Prickly Fungus) that must be sown on the Main field or Green Meadow.

Event crop: Compass Rose (5h30) on Bahamarama Plantation only

Event drop: Treasure Map from crops, trees, stables and workshops on all 3 Tropical Lands

milling item: Stone Tablet 250 Compass Roses + 27 Treasure Maps + 15s of milling time

Each player will get 1 free Stone Tablet to try the mini-game!

To get the cloud row play 40 mini-games (mill 39)	To finish the entire mini-game task list play 60 mini-games (mill 59)
9750 Compass Roses 1053 Treasure Maps 39 Stone Tablets + 9m45s milling time	14750 Compass Roses 1593 Treasure Maps 59 Stone Tablets + 14m45s milling time
Reward: Piccolo Box (34 mini-games played) cloud row only the needed givers to activate the cloud row can only be obtained in the second part of the event	Rewards: Picollo Box (45 mini-games played) 2 Picollo Boxes (60 mini-games player)

Playing and finishing the tetris puzzle under 60 seconds will hand out 4 Ancient Pouches. If you cannot finish it under 60 seconds, you can close the mini-game window and start from scratch to max out your rewards.

A few bonuses for the 3 event seeds are activated after player a certain amount of mini-games :

	10 mini-games played	20 mini-games played	30 mini-games played	38 mini-games played	55 mini-games played
bonus:	+ 1 crop bonus	+1 crop bonus	+2 crop bonus	+3 crop bonus	+1 crop bonus

The Ancient Pouches, once opened, will turn at ramdom into one seed out of the three following crops:

Water Berry: 4h on the Main field and Green Meadow only
Valley Rose: 6h on the Main field and Green Meadow only
Prickly Fungus: 8h on the Main field and Green Meadow only

The Water Berry, Valley Rose and Prickly Fungus can only be sowed once, after that it can only be given as donations to the event or sold into the market.

To squeeze out as much as as possible from the event crop bonuses, players should play 9 mini-games, open their Ancient Pouches, sow the seeds into (2x2) plots on the Main field and Green Meadow, wait for them to mature, player as many mini-games as possible to activate the bonuses, open the rest of their Ancient Pouches, sow those seeds with Super Grow and Suzy Super Grow in (2x2) plots and repeat after harvest. Players should mill and save up the Stone Tablets to use them in one long sitting - plan accordingly.

To get the 3 givers needed for the cloud row reach level 50 out of 75	To finish the Herb Task list
1418 Water Berries 1450 Valley Roses 1250 Prickly Fungi	2825 Water Berries 2886 Valley Roses 2500 Prickly Fungi
	Rewards: second set of the 3 givers Piccolo Box

The cloud row is not that impressive, it boosts EP/TEP production from givers. But the 100% boost to givers will be quite useful for gaining levels and the cooldown time of 23h makes it a daily cloud row to harvest.

The second set of givers is quite interesting even more so with the boost from the cloud row. The third giver has a 26h cooldown time, but for players with cloud rows that reduce cooldown time of givers, it would be a great one to add to their park.

The three event crops Water Berry - Valley Rose - Prickly Fungus will appear rather late in the market and prices usually soar.

Good luck everyone!

 

Thanks Nordais/Northy for doing the (really) hard work - I couldn't even begin to get my head around the requirements!

I will skip this event, nothing really excites me in the prizes - more "surprise" items than actual pens/trees and the CR is not that great either. I don't mind missing events these days as it gives me a chance to build up my SG and SSG for events that have more that interests me.
Good luck everybody who is having a go!

 

Thank you Nordais for the nice summary. I will pass on this one. My barn is pretty empty and this is the perfect event to do some stocking.

Good luck anyone going for it. Mini game sounds fun

 

I think that ONLY sewinglady's farm will do this event. This farm and PM23's lack the green goo and propellers necessary for completion. Also, I'm running out of time to sew. June 1st is fast approaching and I have a whole lotta aprons and bags cut out and waiting for me to sew them up.

I had a minor catastrophe in the sewing room yesterday. It all started with a bobbin. The bobbin didn't wind correctly, but I hate to waste thread (especially now that we are about to lose our local JoAnn Fabrics store - short version: lost their lease, corporate is in bankruptcy so no new store), so I started to transfer the thread onto another bobbin. The 1st bobbin quickly jumped out of my hand and landed behind the base of the lamp that sits behind my sewing machine. I just left it there and finished winding the new bobbin. Then, with that completed, I moved the roll-around drawer cart that lives next to my machine so that I could get to the bobbin on the floor behind the base of the lamp. The cart had other ideas. It decided to tip over and all the drawers came out and all the stuff in all the drawers came out. BUT, I got the bobbin from behind the lamp base! Not a win. Spent the next hour cleaning up the mess. DH had to help. I had bits and baubles everywhere. If there's a silver lining, it's that those drawers are now all tidied and sorted and may they ever stay that way!

 

Have to travel next this week so was going to miss event. Glad it was this one as I dislike it the most. Thanks for the numbers! Don't know how you guys figure them so fast.

 

Thanks Nordais, you are my super hero for posting all these strategy events! I do NOT like this type event at all...so I will wait for the next one to come along! To any of my awesome friends/neighbors who might see this, I do not need any "Event Gift" so please send to someone who is doing this event! Thanks and Good Luck to you all!

 

dumbunny, you crack me up

Nordais, thank you very much for the numbers. I know for sure i'll do the first part of the event to put my hands on those 2 piccolos
The strategy you pointed out is the very one However, to complete the event many more boosters than those offered by the

game are necessary and unfortunately i don't have enough. I would have to count on the wheel that has not been that generous for me lately

Anyway, the best of luck for all those participating and hope you not only finish the event but also make million of CCs on the market!

 

The events come and go and at some point the mechanics is easy to grasp. After that it's just about punching in the right numbers.

Yes, this event is easily achieved with lots of super grow and Suzy super grow (if you can). Also, using 100% or 200% in the diamond slot and/or 100% crop in the gold slot can help players reach the amount of event crops both for donation and milling.

This time around we need to play the mini-games to get the cloud row AND make enough plant donations to get the givers for it. Players sitting on lots of CCs won't be able to get the cloud row, but still, buy buying the 3 crops in the market, players could get the givers (which are the real great prize of the event in my opinion).

It's said to be a medium - hard event, but reaching the 4000+ event crops for donation from the Main farm & Green Meadow and 14750 Compass Roses to mill all the Stone Tablets from 1 single 188 (1x1) bahamarama plantation field won't be a simple feat!

 

Wow, Northy, you did it again! I, too, cannot wrap my tiny brain around all this - way toooooo much work. I was quite content yesterday morning to complete the 6-day event and promptly went and set out my trees and critters and back to normal farming and the Season which rewards us a darling Chipmunk this time!

Like Sanddollar, please don't send me event drops, but give to those who take on this challenge.

 

Thanks for doing the math for us Northy! I will go as far as I can on this one, I don't know what life will throw my way this week, so if I finish, great, if not, no big deal. I'm glad it's a tropical crop so I can work on the Dragon Season!

 

I'm going to give this event a pass. i would need to get more SG and SSG to have a hope of finishing this event. Also the cloud row is not exciting to me. Northy, I want to give a big thank you to you. Without you crunching all the numbers for events I would be lost .

 

2 Piccolo boxes have been added (34 mini-games played + 1 more after 60 mini-games played) and the cloud row rebalanced (now only boosting EP/TEP from givers for 6h + 1 Crate O'Fertilizer III - still 23h cooldown time tho).

 

Yeah, even with the fixes, it's just not that great of an event. The only reason to do it beyond the usual stuff is the season points, and they are all received for delivering the mainland plants.

I still think I'm only fooling with it on SL's farm. Here I go...

 

Thank you Northy, for doing the sums, I have a Jack O'Gift running so I may as well use it. Yet again I am surprised that some players on this thread don't seem to be interested in this event, as always I will keep attempting them as at some point I will need to work away from home, I suppose ultimately we all play the game for different reasons, mine is to level up and unlock more FSQs

 

Plant prices did not reset this time, so top prices for sellers right from the start.

 

I regret that I entered this event at all.
Without bonuses, fertilizer, unfeasible... and extremely difficult and expensive with them as well. Drops in particular are like a weak joke. Not for the average player like me
This is what happens when the vision of CCs profit (which you probably won't be able to earn as much as in the previous edition anyway) guides your actions.
Nonetheless, have a nice day everyone and good luck

 

Yes, drops that come from the three Tropical Lands will be the limiting factor if you haven't opened all of the baha land sections. That's why I wouldn't have tagged this event medium-hard...

EDIT:

San-Gigantica is on, time to recycle the yellow stall upgrades! There's not much to be exited about for old timer, but could be interesting for newer players!

 

Sooooo...I lied. This farm and PM23's started the event yesterday - but I didn't buy baskets...so won't get very far and that's okay, only in it for a few season points (only available from right side).

And over on SL's farm, well, entirely different story. Hit a 200% bonus on the party wheel. So in 12 hours, managed to grow all the necessary baha crops as well as most of the mainland crops needed. I ran out of drops. Will have those soon enough, though. I also stopped delivering to both sides because of the bonuses that would have kicked in and thus the benefits lost if activated in the evening. Will donate those crops and do those puzzles this morning to reap the benefits of those bonuses.

Not buying the new baha stables. Probably not donating to San Gigantica express, either. Why do they do these things when our fields are almost all full of event crops? I'll never understand this.

 

Just to make sure that we'll not recycle the crap we get from the same wonder stable... At least I'm taking the chance to dump yellow upgrades to get red or pink worth more in Edelweiss Valley...

P.S. I'm getting a warning in EV that my green water has almost reached it's max level.....

EDIT: The San-Gigantica only required a 1000 exchange value, that's not much compared to usual 2080 or so! Let's all jump onto the marching train.... Wheeeeee!

Thanks Nordais for all your efforts. I am sitting this one out.
