Joining a Community

There are other posts about the Community option but there are players who may not have been playing from the time the option was introduced.

Know first that every Community has its own rules.  Some demand that you perform all the tasks.  Others, like the Freyashawk Community exist primarily to support one another now.

We have all the upgrades which means we need not rush to finish any tasks.  We perform the weekly tasks, but we do not complete them until the last day usually to give slow members a chance to earn gems.

To find the weekly tasks that are included in the Community Activity, go to the Exclamation Point on the top left of your screen, then go to the fourth and last tab.

Here there is displayed a maximum of four tasks.

The first is a Machine or Animal product.

The second is a Kitchen item.

The third and fourth will be tree harvests.

In our Communuty, we try to give every member a chance.  Basically, that means that you can make about 140 or 150 of the Animal or Machine product, 40 cooked dishes, 11 or 12 harvests from each tree.

We wait until the end of the week, for Saturday before we encourage members to complete these tasks if there has not been enough participation.  That is our way.

There is a Community Achievement as well.  We no longer have any requirements there.  Any member can do as many or few as he or she wishes as there is no time limit on that.

Benefits of belonging to a Community are the ability to obtain special items:

At the highest level, they can include: a bag of Cherry Tomato Seeds, Cattail Seeds,

Elephant Puzzle Piece, Golden Monkey Puzzle Piece, Pottery Wheel Puzzle Piece, Coconut Jelly Machine Piece, Chocolate Corgi Pet Card.  The items that appear each day are random.  The Puzzle Pieces must be collected and then merged in the Factory.

You earn Gems to buy them by performing Community tasks and selling the required items in the Order Corner.

There is much more to a Community but I will add details later.

Other oprions are performing the Pinkleby quests where you are required to feed the large pink creature special Research lab dishes that can be made only in the four Community cooking stations.

Another option is Treasure Land where you can set your Pet to dig for treasure.  You can earn Pet Cookies that can increase the levels of new pets quickly.

30 November: I have not forgotten this.  Hope to add to it this weekend.

This is what is in my heart recently.  You can choose to read it or not to read it:

'As you prepare your breakfast, think of others.

(Do not forget the pigeon's food.)

As you pay your water bill, think of others.

(Those who are nursed by the clouds.)

As you return home, to your home, think of others.

(Do not forget the people in the camps.)

As you sleep and count the stars, think of others.

(Those who have nowhere to sleep.)

As you express yourself in metaphors, think of others.

(Those who have lost the right to speak.)

As you think of others far away, think of yourself.

(If only I were a candle in the dark.)

Harvest Island

Walkthrough

This is a work in progress.

The Activity is not difficult but it is long and labour intensive.  You can purchase Diamonds, Energy and Golden tools in special sale offers for cash or use RC to transform that into Diamonds and then exchange diamonds for Energy.

You also can buy out of a Material requirement by using Diamonds but I do not recommend that.  I recommend using Diamonds to buy Golden Tools.  You also can trade Toys for Golden Tools.  These tool sets are used to open areas on the map that are not necessary for the Quest but do give you extra materials and Gift Boxes.

You obtain Rewards according to the total Stars earned.  Find the Menu to collect Stars from specific tasks at the bottom left of your screen.  I have listed these as well as goving the Rewards List.  The significant reward is not the final one but the one earned with 1100 Stars.  It is a Croissant Machine.  

There is a Fountain where you can use Fertiliser or Watering Cans, ordinary or Super, to trade for Energy. At Level 1, you receive 30 Energy.  For 10 Diamonds, you can upgrade to Level 2 to receive 60 Energy.  You can upgrade to Level 3 with 30 Diamonds.  I only upgrade to Level 2 usually.  It is on a 4 hour timer, so frankly I do not find it that useful myself.

How to play:  Always follow the prompts.  You must target the precise obstacle in the prompt.  'Clear 1 Bush' will refer to a specific bush.  Use the magnifying glass to find it when in doubt.

1.   Clear 1 Magic Grass (costs 12 energy)

2.  Cover 1 Water Pit: (4 Grass, 1 Maple Leaf)

3.  Wake up 1 gnome: (2 Grass, 2 Magic Leaf, 2 Sunflowers)

(Clearing Sunflower: cost is 90 Energy and gives 3 Sunflowers 2nd hit costs 32 and gives 1) Pile of Maple Leaves costs 48 and gives 2 for first hit, second hit costs 25 and gives 1 maple leaf)

Smaller Sunflower costs 32 and gives 1

Smaller Maple pile costs 25 and gives 1

9.  Restore 1 Maple: (4 Maple Leaf, 2 Sunflowers. 4 Pumpkins)

Pumpkin Basket costs 34 and contains 2 Pumpkins

4.  Clear 1 Bush 

There is a gift bag on this area:

Gift Bag Contains a Duck

To do this, you must build a Fallen Leaf Bridge: 2 Grass, 5 Maple Leaf

Now Build the Workshop: (5 Grass, 5 Branch)

With the Workshop, make the Harvest Wreath: (1 Maple Leaf, 1 Sunflower)

3 Diamonds will give you a second slot that might be useful later, although I see only one item that can be produced here now

The pink gift bag gives you a Toy Train

6.  Cover 1 Pit :(4 Stones, 2 Pumpkins, 4 Maple Leaf)
