Cloud Mysteries

I never played this type of event and as usual with event FAQs, don't understand the mechanics of the cloud event. I read the FAQs multiple times and had no clue how to play. Truly a mystery!

I decided to try and clear one area by continuously clicking with the fans until all were used used. I stayed in the same spot and didn't move to any other area. After using all the fans, three of the four squares have colorful birds and one square is mostly grey.

I used the satellite dish and it showed one of the four bird squares with a red circle; I assume there's a prize if that layer/square is completely cleared.

Is my only option to purchase more iron fans at 2BBs each?

Upon starting my farming day this morning, there was no replenishment of fans. Does this mean the event's over for me unless I spend BBs. My impression is this is a pay to play event. What are other players doing?

Thanks for any clarification provided.

 

I will stay out this event.

The instruction is so confusing. I used all the free stuffs just to figure out how to play the game ( not 100% understanding).

The event does not look fun at all. The playing price is high and the reward......

 

I used the free items that were booked, and got one bronze balloon and a slingshot that I could use to pop the balloon.

Here were the prizes won from the balloon:


I used the 9 fans and didn't uncover any additional balloons. To continue, we would have to purchase items from the event shop and so I'll save my BB's.

I'm done with this event. Good luck to you all

 

Got one balloon to pop. Used all free fans so giving up now. What was that all about I wonder? Hopefully others will have better luck.
