New Mini-Event - Alpen Glow

ALPENGLOW LOUNGE​

I don't know if you have all seen this but it is starting tomorrow, no growing or drops required, as far as I can see. As it is of a totally different type of event to normal, I have no idea what strategy to use but I just wanted to bring everyone's attention to it.

We get freebies to start us off but what to do with them is anyone's guess - apart from those smart farmers who always seem to spot the way things go!

If you do it, have fun!

 

Thanks illy1996 for starting the tread,

This is an Edelweiss Valley mini event. We'll be required to exchange inventory items for cards that represent ingredients to make drinks. The mini event consists on clients coming in and placing orders for specific drinks, each with a specific recipe. The ingredients' cards will be in three different stacks at the bottom of the screen, we'll have to move them around to get enough ingredients to make the drinks. Cards can only be moved on the same type: ex a "Milk" card can only be move unto another "Milk" card or in a client's order.

There is no strategy to this, it all depends on what you are ready to convert your inventory into, what kind of drinks will pop up in the clients' requests, etc. The givers and cloud row are quite expensive. It is not clear how much "Alpine Cards" will be rewarded after completing a drink. Also, filling orders will raise the level of the event, which unlocks other drinks, clients, etc.

This event is not for the newly Edelweiss Valley players for sure...

 

FAQ says:
Each completed General order rewards 55 x Edelweiss Cards. Special orders can win an extra 75 x Edelweiss Cards from the Reward Pool.

I will give the event a try and see what happens. As with any new mechanic, once it goes live, any confusion will become clear as we go along.

My plan is to fill my inventories today so that I can fill the fridge tomorrow and then plant crops/trees that fit my farming schedule. I'm still working on the Firefly event so likely, I'll aim for something similar in time. And if that doesn't work, then I'll try something else.

 

Thanks illy1996. Edelweiss can become very passive and boring after a while. I think events like this will add excitement to the game and make players want to spend more time in Edelweiss. Yes, I'll try it too. Let's see what surprises we'll encounter. Good luck to my fellow farmers who will participate.

 

This farm dabbles at EV. SL's farm is much farther along and does much more there. So we'll see how this goes. Thanks for reminding me that it starts tomorrow. So much on my plate.
