Time-Restricted Sinterklaas Quests

As usual, there are two separate parts to this.  There are the regular Missions or Quests, which here are the Sinterklaas Quests and the Steam Boat, where one collects Mitres from Crops, Animals, Machines and Trees to redeem for various prizes.

You will not be able to perform these Quests if you have not reached a high enough Level in the game.  The Steamboat is unlocked at Level 10 but the Sinterklaas Quest sequence actually requires that you attain Level 20.


Find the Steamboat in the Market for 500 Coins and place it to begin the Mitre Quest.

The Prizes are:
Roe Stick (used to improve your luck at finding Mitres)
  1 Mitre each at the start

Saint and Pete
  30 Mitres for the first decoration

30 OP
  1 Mitre each at the start

5 Green Mystron
  1 Mitre each at the start

The number of Mitres required tends to increase as you redeem your prizes.  For example, to redeem a second Green Mystron will cost 2 Mitres.  To redeem a second batch of 30 OP will cost 2 Mitres.   A second Saint and Pete costs 50 Mitres.  It is only the Roe Stick that continues to require only 1 Mitre as you redeem more of them.    You only need to redeem one of each to unlock the final prize which is a Cinnamon Tree.

Once you have redeemed one of each prize, you will be able to redeem the Cinnamon Tree for 150 Mitres.  If you have reached Level 50, you can buy a Cinnamon Tree any day in the Market for 15,000 Coins.

IMPROVE YOUR LUCK
  This is an option that you will find that the bottom of the Steam Boat Screen.  You can upgrade your Steam Boat to Level 5 by collecting Chocolate Letters and Roe Sticks.  Chocolate Letters can be requested from Neighbours.  Roe Sticks can be redeemed with Mitres.  Improving your Luck simply means improving your chance of obtaining Mitres.  At Level 5, you have a random chance of obtaining 2 Mitres instead of 1 from any given harvest.

N.B.  ANY ITEMS REQUESTED FROM NEIGHBOURS MUST BE USED FROM THE GIFT BOX!  YOU WILL NOT FIND AN OPTION TO USE THEM IN THE STEAM BOAT!

Note that you will need a Cinnamon Tree to complete Sinterklaas Quest IV.  You therefore must be either at Level 50 or have collected 150 Mitres to redeem the Cinnamon Tree by the time you reach Sinterklaas IV unless you are willing to spend RC to skip this Quest.
