Event Basics

The event crops and drops needed for one Football are deducted automatically from your inventory when you click on the play button in the event window to start the mini game.

The object of the mini game is to make your way from one end of the field to the other by passing the ball to your team mates (blue) without letting the ball touch your opponents (red), and score a goal into the opposing team's net.

The ball can only be passed to another player along predefined trajectories depicted by the white dotted lines, and only when the ball on the receiving end turns green; the ball will stay red if the pass can't be made, either because there is obstacle in the way or because you're not aiming the ball in the right direction. If the ball hits an opponent, you lose a ball and the game will continue from the same spot before that particular pass was made.

Each round gives you 5 balls/attempts, and the game ends when you either successfully shoot the ball into the net or lose all 5 balls, whichever comes first.

It's important to plan ahead in order to pick up the best rewards along the way because you can only move forward, meaning you can't go back if you accidentally take a less-than-ideal path.

12ss12 has kindly written up a post here with tips on how to get the most out of each playfield.

Thanks so much zero for crunching the numbers for us. Your tipps and tricks and advice are always very much appreciated!

Just hoping that the drop-rat is nice again

Happy gaming

 

Thanks zerrodegrees, for the numbers. Doing several strategy threads at a go without a break is really great. Cheers !!

Have put workshops & animal pens for drops in main farms & comfort fields with them in baha farms.

 

Thank you zerodegrees, this is excellent. Two events so close together with event crops, is a lot, but Ingrid's axe throwing and Football are my two favorite events...and the prizes are great, so I'm playing as far as I can go. Good Luck everyone.

 

1. Every time you play a game you get any one of the 10 play field. See the spoilers for the 10 fields - numbered 0 - 9. I think you can know the play field number on the left-hand side on mini-game window.
2. Before playing check out it structure, so that while hitting the ball you can gain the prizes in addition to the star coins like PFs, SGs, additional star coins etc., which are scattered over the play field.
3. Plan your route so that your ball cross over the rewards you want to get. See the picture below for a sample of it.
4. Also if some shot is tricky and you do not want to take risk, you can choose a different path.
5. You have 5 balls for each mini-game and even if one goes wrong, you can play with the second ball from the place were you have gone wrong.

I thought to lessen your burden, zerodegree.

​

 

you are going to need 923 coins to get everything in the shop do you think this is doable? and how many crops will we then need?

 

To get 100 coins you have to play 11.11 mini games, that is 12 mini game which will require 4200 white & another 4200 black roses and 360 drops. So we have to be choosy in our selection of prizes.

 

Think i have been banned from the game for speaking the truth as i see it....my inventory was grey and couldn't be opened and the same with the multi tools...thats back

But now have nowhere to go to get into play this event

 

Hi Nellie !
You are able to get into your farm. So it may not be banning. May be some other error. I am not sure about it. But sincerely hope it is not so.

 

Ah thats not good Nellie, what have you supposed to have said.

everytime I login at the moment Imnot getting the news screen

 

I can get into my farm ...but for a while the inventory and multi tools were greyed out ...that's back ... but where you get to play events from ....that isn't there...so looks like i have been banned from the event LOL

Basically I said what i thought of the last event Phoenix

 

Nellie - the event timer disappears when there is no current event running. Football fever hasn't started yet so no worries about not getting started.

 

Ahh Ok thank you PNP

 

Glad you all sorted now Nellie.

Ok fields almost set with longest crops and pens. Dont know what im going to do in the morning whilst I wait for event to start.

at least its not a barn emptier event ive used all of my barn to do FSQ's to get stars for LL rune only 118 stars to go

 

Thanks zerodegrees and 12ss12 for keeping this strategy filled with just that, so people like me will have some hope of doing these events! Getting farm lands ready for 1st harvest tomorrow! I too this event Good luck to all preparing and playing!

 

Got all my fields filled with long growing crops and trees all around the edges ..am not harvesting my magic trees today so i will have at least 3 drops to start with if nothing else

 

I am very on the fence on this one. Two grow&throw events without a break, doesn't really fit my life at the moment. To keep my options open I have planted all fields with longest timed crop. Don't you all hate it when BP forget to check your schedule when they put up the event calendar?

 

Just a reminder to everyone. You can often times get two prizes when kicking the ball between the circles. Play field two from above is the best example of this as it has two different chances for getting multiple rewards.

 

Just did the sums to get everything!

I wasn't going to do an SOS thread this time but I think I will for those going for the CR and all it's attachments.

I will post it here when it is ready:
