New Christmas Time-Restricted Quests



As usual, the Quests are in tandem.  The first involves the collection of 'Carols' from four different harv

70 Purple Carol Scores from Grape harvests
50 Orange Carol Scores from Orange Jam
30 Red Coral Scores from Apple Juice
20 Black Carol Scores from Dark Chocolate Tree

The Rewards are an Aniseed Tree and a Nutcracker Decoration

The second is a traditional Quest/Mission sequence, given below.  There are eight Missions or Quests in this sequence and many of them require the use of Sugar in one form or another.  You will need to have a decent supply of Cane to make Sugar in the Sugar Machine as well as using it afterwards in the Candy Machine and in the Kitchen for a couple of different Recipes.

A Winter Fairy Tale II

The thief left a clue behind, some footprints!  They have very tiny paws and it leads right to this mouse hole!  There is a note!  'A treat from childhood, thiny size will give you.  The Ghost from the Past!

Harvest 6 Dark Chocolates
  Skip for 6 RC

Prepare 10 Gourmet Apples
  Skip for 10 RC

It works.  I am tiny!  Wow, if I ever meet this Ghost from the Past, I have to thank him.  Time to go into the mouse hole.

N.B.  IN ORDER TO COMPLETE THE NEXT QUEST IN THE SEQUENCE, YOU MUST COMPLETE THE COLLECTION OF CAROL SCORES IN ORDER TO OBTAIN THE ANISEED TREE, UNLESS YOU WISH TO USE RC TO SKIP THIS STEP.  I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THAT, HOWEVER.  IT WOULD BE BETTER TO SPEND RC ON FARM AIDS TO COMPLETE THE COLLECTIONS FASTER BY RIPENING GRAPES OR WHATEVER.  NOTE THAT YOU CAN PLACE AS MANY JAM MACHINES AND JUICE MACHINES AS WILL FIT ON YOUR LAND.

Now that I'm knee-high, what should i do?  I've just met a gingerbread man.  He seems to have a clue, but he won't say a thing.  He's afraid of something so I better leave him alone for now.

Prepare 6 Gingerbread so the gingerbread man has a friend
  Skip for 6 RC

  The Ingredients for Gingerbread are Soft Dough and Aniseed, so you may wish to make Soft Dough in advance if you have not completed the Carol Score Collections.

Prepare 20 Sinterklaas Marzipan
  Skip for 20 RC

  The Ingredients for Sinterklaas Marzipan are Sugar Cubes and Almond Paste, both of which are made in the Kitchen.  Preparation for this step would include the harvest of Cane and the making of Sugar in the Sugar Machine in order to create Sugar Cubes, made with Sugar x 2.  Almond Paste simply requires Almonds and White Chocolate, both of which are harvested from Trees.

Reward: 70 Coins, 18 XP

This gingerbread woman looks pretty good!  If he doesn't want to talk now, I don't know what else to do!

FINAL REWARD:  Chocolate Coating Machine and Gingerbread House Decoration

The Chocolate Coating Machine is familiar to players of the original Family Farm, but is new to Seaside and is slightly different in the ingredients used and the products it makes.  It make the following:

Cherry Chocolate: 51 Coins
Ingredients:  Dark Chocolate, Cherry

Almond Chocolate: 57 Coins

Peanut Chocolate: 240 Coins

As you can see, the most valuable product is the Peanut Chocolate but, if you previously have grown hundreds of Grapes in pursuit of the Purple Carol Score, you may find it useful to make the Raisin Chocolate!
