Mystron and the Calendar, two new options

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
THE CALENDAR
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Each day that a player logs into Family Farm Seaside, he/she will be given a reward.   This can vary from Coins to RC or a number of other items.  The longer one manages to log in without ever missing a day, the more valuable the rewards that one will obtain after any period of five days.  In other words, rewards follow a five-day cycle generally speaking.

Now, in November, in addition to the Daily Log-In Reward, there is a new Calendar option.  Players of the original Family Farm game on Facebook will be familiar with this option.  Again, a player must log in without missing any days for maximum benefit.  Each day, the player will receive a specific item reward.  At the end of the month, if no days have been missed, a special Reward will be given.  For the Calendar, however, a player can miss a day and still maintain his/her position if he/she is willing to pay RC to unlock the day that was missed.  This is not true of the Daily Log-In Reward.  Furthermore, it appears that if one misses a single day, the Daily Log-In resets to zero.  In the original Family Farm, one simply loses seven days for every day missed.

A note of caution here:  The Calendar, unlike the Daily Log-In announcement, does NOT load automatically always.  If it does not load for you on any given day, go to the Menu and you now will find the option in the bottom right of the screen under Calendar.

MYSTRON

Players have been mystified by the appearance of a green item that resembles a ticket or form of currency and has been named 'Mystron'.  If you go to your Menu, you now will find a new option in the form of the Mystery Store.  Click on that to discover a sort of trading post that will offer different items that can be acquired with Mystron.  The Mystery Store Menu when first accessed will declare:

'The Mystery Store offers different items every day.  The time counter indicates how long these items will be available.  You can get mystrons in Calendar, Lucky Wheel and Fishing.'

As an example, today you will find the following:

1 RC for 300 Mystron
Elderberry Tree for 2400 Mystron
Super Fertiliser x 25 for 1100 Mystron
Power x 6 for 1700 Mystron
Gasoline x 1 for 3700 Mystron
Swimming Pool for 400 Mystron

Using a Hook in Fishing that required 200 Bait, I obtained 10 Mystron.  By the prices given here, you can see how much that is worth on a general basis!  As the prizes change daily, however, players are advised to access the Market to see if anything has become more reasonable...

In January 2014, a new option in the form of 'Cleaning' for specific Decoraitons was added to the game.  Cleaning Gift Bags, the Reward either for Cleaning a Neighbour's Decoration or for having your own Decoration cleaned by a Neighbour can include Green Mystron.
