I really love the penguins. Please do more of these different kind of pets besides the usual dog, cat, pony, etc! I also like the special habitats.

Kudos to the team for all the great pets recently. From the Elephants, to the gnomes and now penguins, the animation crew is really talented!

I also love the non traditional pets! I'd love to see more pachyderms for the hefalump to hang with. Rhino? Hippo?

OK one voice of dissent. The tanning penguin looks... Kind of dead. Poor dude! Hope he's at least using sunblock! So not bringing him out right now. But I can't wait for these guys to walk around, though my guess is they'll waddle like the gnomes.

lucky me ☺️ the penguin showed up 2 times today - so I?m on step one still - I feel like I?m being punished for being at level 100 - all these hours, years spent- and this is my loyalty reward? Guess I?ll not be stressing over this one, because based on the next goals I can see, there won?t be any way to even get past step 2 at this rate.

This is gonna be like the gnomes, really hard! OK, I'm gonna plow on and see where I can get. In the meantime, I am looking forward to seeing the pet on someone's farm so I can decide if I wanna spend the gems. Good luck everyone! And all hail Judy for all of her posts and recommendations, cuz without her I think half of us wouldn't have our pets, oy!

I'm just wondering if somebody saw some event related items in the store. It seams that we can sell it since it shows up in the barn and you can price it. I made an experiment on my mini farm putting 2 items for sale but they are invisible to others including my main farm. So my conspiracy theory is that we can't sell and later on it is going to be bought by computer system.

OH MY! U R RIGHT! i haven't seen ANY event items in the newspaper/neighbor shops yet...i just thought it was still early, but now that you mention it...

i hope this was actually unintentional and gets fixed by the team soon... fingers crossed a team member sees these posts before the end of day/start of wknd....:/

Most of the time we cannot sell to each other. We can put them up for sale in our barn, which really helps us with the barn space, where the Bots will then buy them.

I think you all are right, this is just like the gnome event, and really the animation is even exactly like the Gnomes. It's really perfect if you think about it, the Gnomes waddle, penguins waddle, I like the logical reuse of this code! I don't think I'll be able to finish this one, though I'm going to try, but given that I was able to get a pet in the last event with only 4 days to do it, it's hard for me to complain!

take a look at the goals for the gnome event: https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?103675-Gnome-Sweet-Gnome!-2018-Mar-21-(POLL-ADDED)

see how similarly parallel the gnome goals are vs the current penguin goals...that's what we're all referring to. there's one final step after steps 1-7 where it'll ask you to take all the items you've made so far to make one ultimate item ("coin"). and to earn both prizes, you'll need to turn in "x" ultimate items to both morgan and piper. :)

wow!!!! *fireworks* at this rate, you're so definitely gonna be able to get both penguins!!! XD

congrats, seriously! :DD i'm so happy someone is gonna be able to get both without spending gems...too bad i've fallen behind now given my uncooperative pigs who have refused to give up any "punches" (pun intended)...:cool:

btw, i really wonder if the team is aware that, even though we have the option to put events items up for sale in the market, they are actually invisible to other players, kinda like those expired items from past events. Curious if this is intentional vs UNintentional coding oversight left over from the gnome event that they just weren't aware of....hmmmmmm......

We have played other events that the items are invisible.
This way players not participating can sell the items for barn space.
As for getting two I will be happy with one.
If like the GNOME event we have to repeat everything....that is a lot of planes and my product is now low.
Machines are all churning out items but some items take a long time to make.

My advice to everyone is send Planes, collect from pigs by setting an alarm if you can, make a penguin jail area so he can only appear in a small area making it easier to spot him to get Snowballs.
If you don't have the item for a plane and takes too long to make then refresh that order.
Make dough balls for fishing.
Buy all shovels and pickaxes you see.
Don't forget the two hour maple trees.

DO NOT SELL any of the event items you have made because if this is like the GNOME event they will be needed for the last step.

true. but they've also done items invisible from barn but stored kinda in the cloud for space management, achieving the same goal. i guess it just didn't make total sense to my tiny brain why they'd "tease us" like that when they could use the "cloud" alternative if the true intention is barn space. anyhoo...time to stop torturing my brain with all these guessing :cool:

in any case, yes! i'd be so content with just 1 penguin achieved :) this constant plane sending is making me buy-buy-buy from markets too, which then puts even more strain on barn space...lol what a contradiction :p

The Repetition Begins!

Welcome Penguin (this one looks like a gentleman attending black-n-white gala)

Visit Neighbors 20 (says neighbors but I visited 20 community members here n it checked off)
Give Morgan Penguin Party Packs 5
Give Morgan Frozen Rainbow Penguin Punch 1



Welcome Summer Penguin (green Hawaiian shirt)

Visit Neighbor 1. ... (I checked this off by Collecting a Party pack in studio ... not visiting neighbors)
Give Piper Penguin Party Packs 5
Give Piper Frozen Rainbow Penguin Punch 1


Recipe for 1 Penguin Party Pack -- studio 2hrs
12 Rainbow deep fried ice cream
5 Ice pops
2 sorbetto cone
1 Frozen Penguin Punch

Lastly, to skip the 5 Penguin Party Packs is 1730 diamonds which divided by 5 is 346 gem each, much more pricy than the Gnome coin. I'll be living on my farm for the next 11 days ...


Please Note: for those of u that want the Summer Penguin, the first Visiting Neighbor part can be checked off by collecting ur first party pack from studio. Visiting a neighbor is a no go for me.

This is probably a stupid question but how do we go for BOTH penguins? Is there something else I should be doing besides trying to get through goals 1 through 7? There aren?t any collections to be turned in that I?m aware of...

Looks like my nightmares came true... :(

1. My pigs are refusing to cooperate just like they weren't in the Beaver Dam event.
2. This is the same as the Gnomes Event which means I am very certain I wont be able to finish, also based on my current drop rates.
Bye Bye Penguins. I love you and I miss you... :(

For members who are trying, remember you need to make 5 Party Packs for 1 penguin. So that means you need to have the ingredients to make 1 party pack every 2 days, in order to craft them before the event ends.

1 penguin = 1 party pack / 2 days
2 penguins = 2 party packs / 2 days

Penguins go to Icy Igloo.

Can members help to post screenshot of your Penguins when you have completed, for me to add to Pets Guide? Many thanks in advance.

Good luck everyone! We need lots of it! :D

Heads Up
Make two extra Ice Pops in the bakery because you won't have enough for your first party pack.
You have all the other event items you made in your barn and a couple of extras.
Here is a picture of the party pack when I reached the end.
As you can see I needed two more to make the first party pack.

take a look at the goals for the gnome event: https://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?103675-Gnome-Sweet-Gnome!-2018-Mar-21-(POLL-ADDED)

see how similarly parallel the gnome goals are vs the current penguin goals...that's what we're all referring to. there's one final step after steps 1-7 where it'll ask you to take all the items you've made so far to make one ultimate item ("coin"). and to earn both prizes, you'll need to turn in "x" ultimate items to both morgan and piper. :)

I see now. Thanks!! ;)

I couldn't agree more with you. Storm8 doesn't listen to hard core players, loyal ones, players who are nice, ones who spend money. They don't listen to anybody and ignore all issues that we have. Storm8 please get the message through, if we are here it means that we care.

OH MY! U R RIGHT! i haven't seen ANY event items in the newspaper/neighbor shops yet...i just thought it was still early, but now that you mention it...

i hope this was actually unintentional and gets fixed by the team soon... fingers crossed a team member sees these posts before the end of day/start of wknd....:/

I just don't get it. What the point of letting you put the event items in the shop but no other players can actually buy any from you? If it is for the purpose of space in the barn, then I would prefer the invisible storing system. It would reduce a lot of hassle. Otherwise if Storm8 has to make the items to be stored in the barn and players have to put them in the shops to release some space, then at least let them be buyable to other players. That way would allow non-participating players help others to finish their goals. It would be a win-win situation. This is a stupid feature and I hope it is just a bug and S8 will try to fix soon. :mad:

Why is this an ongoing issue for each event? I wish at least two to three drops could be guaranteed each time we collect; if that were to happen, we could then be sure to finish the event. But that's not going to happen at this rate.��

Storm8 needs to think about making these events more doable or the people who play this game will leave out of frustration. In order to complete any of these events you have to buy the value packs and/or use/buy gems to complete. Most of us don’t mind spending some money but lately it has been a lot of money to complete. It doesn’t have to be easy but it does need to be doable. Sorry in advance for this rant. This one has been frustrating.

I have only ever really wanted one pet on my farm and that would have been a penguin. Well a dolphin would be nice too. Now, that there is one for an event, I won't be able to get it due to the facts that my pigs are not giving me punch. I know it is random but I also know coding and you can set coding up to give more than I am receiving. One (1) punch out of 36 pigs collected is a joke and based on random odds, it is quite possible I may not receive anymore. I would have gladly given up all my other pets for this penguin that is how bad I wanted a penguin... well maybe I would keep a unicorn. I can keep trying but based on the drop rate, the time left of the event, the quantity needed and the fact that I am broke and cannot afford so spend real money, I guess I will have to just snuggle up to my stuffed penguin instead.

A TON. :p

the most amazing ms judy has really helped us all by listing all the recipes (under each goal) in her post #2. so to make 4 more part packs (plus the 2 ice pops for the 1st pack), you are looking at (3x48)+(6x22)+(8x6)+(12x2)=way too many to count XD (jk, i think it's 348 if my math is right).

so what i have been doing to free up barn space is to keep making the 48 additional rainbow ice creams in the deep fryer since it's the only item NOT requiring the pig punches (they're just not cooperating :(), while i continue working on other goals. maybe you can give that a try. :)

Drops from the pigs are non-existent! Last time I received any punch when collecting from my 12 pigs was Sunday...it's now Tuesday and so far zippo. And the penguin snacks are pretty rare despite numerous deliveries.

Yet again, I'll not be able to finish this event, which also happened with the gnome event, simply because of poor drop rates. Why do I even bother? Well, at least the hula penguins are cute decor...but if only I could earn a penguin. If only.🐧🐧

Correct me if I’m wrong, but we will need 331 igloos to complete this event.my math could be wrong but either way it’s still a lot of igloos. I’m sending orders constantly and maybe getting 5 penguin snacks a day. That alone seems completely insurmountable without spending an outrageous amount of gems. Not to mention, 331x500=165,500 coins. I have the coins but how are the lower levels supposed to even compete without going bankrupt? I know if I had just been starting out in the game and there were events constantly going on that I couldn’t even try to compete in I would lose interest pretty quickly. Luckily the events were easier when I was just starting out. Some of us haven’t given up on our farms yet because of the time and money we have put in. I can’t imagine sticking it out as a lower level player with these crazy events today.

You need 5 Party Packs (2h in studio)

Each is: 12 Rainbow Deep Fried Ice Cream, 5 Ice Pops, 2 Sorbetto Cone, and 1 Frozen Penguin Punch

12 Rainbow Deep Fried Ice Creams is 36 snowballs and 12 Ice Chips
5 Ice Pops is 30 snowballs, 10 Ice Chips, 10 Penguin Punch, and 10 Apple Sugar
2 Sorbetto Cones is 16 Snowballs, 6 Ice Chips, 6 Penguin Punch, and 2 cones
1 Frozen Penguin Punch is 12 Snowballs, 6 Ice Chips, 5 Penguin Punch, 1 Silly Straw

TOTAL FOR 1 PARTY PACK: 94 Snowballs, 34 Ice Chips, 21 Penguin Punch, 10 Apple Sugar, 2 Cones, 1 Silly Straw

You need 5 of these

So total for 5 party packs is: 470 Snowballs, 170 Ice Chips, 105 Penguin Punch, 50 Apple Sugar, 10 Cones, 5 Silly Straw

You also need to make Frozen Rainbow Penguin Punch: 10 Empty Glasses, 18 Penguin Punch, 4 Silly Straws, 6 Lime Slices

TOTAL ITEMS NEEDED PER PENGUIN: 470 Snowballs, 170 Ice Chips, 123 Penguin Punch, 9 Silly Straws, 10 Cones, 10 Empty Glasses, 6 Lime Slices, and finally, 50 Apple Sugar.

Totally agree. I would be more than delighted to help somebody out selling my items. Not going to waist any more time on something that is not doable. We all know that selling items means helping each other but S8 doesn't like it since it messes up with their plan.

Say what?!? I misread and thought we only needed 1 party pack. I thought I'd have enough time with 8 days left to finish stage 6 and 7. But turns out we need 5!!

I'm on stage 6 and I still haven't made my first (of 3) ice pops because of the low drop rate on the penguin snacks from plane deliveries. It has taken me 2 whole days and 28 deliveries to finally get the 6th penguin snack, which is now currently being converted into an ice chip.

It's ridiculous we need to invest this much time/money into one event. There's absolutely no way I can complete this event to win a penguin prize. So I'm going to just try to finish stage 7 (to get the remaining 2 decorations) one just one device (I play on both my phone and tablet) and stop wasting my very precious time on an unachievable prize.

Correct me if I?m wrong, but we will need 331 igloos to complete this event.

see Paul's post on the next page for a complete review of # of items needed :) it's 170 chips total for 1 penguin. but otherwise, yeah....i know how everyone feels. i feel so "fortunate" that i got addicted (:p) when things were a lot easier...or i would have never been able to do any of these events now. i feel so bad for anyone who is new to the game and feel defeated not being able to finish these quests lately. maybe we can suggest to S8 that there should be simpler requirements for low level people for future quests...?

So, 72% of respondents did not like the gnome event and if I recall correctly there were many posts complaining about it and the fact that items could not be bought or sold. Subsequent events seemed to show that S8 was listening and the user polls were much more favorable. This event is even more challenging than the gnomes. I wonder what happened?
On the up side, the hula dancers are very cute!

After completing the penguin event....now you have to move on to a ridiculous SECOND event to make the penguin come to life. I quit this game. It is no fun. I can’t possibly come up with 36 punches, 18 limes, 10 ice cream cones and more of whatever else. It is ridiculous. I work full time. I cannot possibly keep up.

I agree. I work. Can't be checking on my phone constantly checking for a pop up penguin. Even checking pigs every 3 hours is troublesome as you need to be harvesting and making feed. I love this game but I am really starting to dislike the events. The last one I was able to finish was the hedgehog

I ?m making the last frozen penguin punch to get the dancer from step 6, and then I?m offloading the items for the bots, unless there is a dancer for finishing step 7. I?ve been playing for 1704 days as of today, and this is the worst event of all time. It is off the charts ridiculous 

I have no idea why my apostrophes became question marks in my last post, but I?m not happy. It is not a good way to treat loyal players. I?ve paid a small fortune as it is, over the years, but not today.

Hello Everyone,

I’m with you the penguins are adorable. I guess you guys have had better luck getting your items. I spent 50.00 buying the items because when I feed the pigs I get 1 -2 bottles. I just used 40 tools and didn’t get one lime slice and it’s the Same with the fishing. This is why I stop playing the restaurant app because it seems they pick at least one item to be a long time to get it so every 3 hours getting 1-2 bottles just doesn?t get it. I am glad they opened up some land but again I can sell 40 loads and maybe get 1-2 items. Well I am stopping right now and I am not going to spend anymore money for diamonds. They are worse then slot machines. You have to give some items to at least make us feel were getting something.

Good luck everyone have fun.

I don't know if anyone else is experiencing this or not but . . . I decided almost 4 hours ago not to continue this event and put everything in my store to sell. Stormys bots have not purchased 1 item. So I can't sell items to help other players but Stormy isnt even buying them. I get that they will be bought in a specific time frame but its not fair. If the items are taking space in our barns and silos then we should be able to sell them. If they dont want us selling them then store them in the cloud. I dont mean to sound whiny but its a no win situation!

I have so many people telling me they say they don?t know computers very well to be able to find this page. As long as they are making money they don?t care how we feel. I don?t know who comes up with the games but I feel they should think them through a lot more.

To be fair I work a lot and how dare I want to sleep and eat!? So yea.... since I'm still on goal 3 (lol) and can't help you guys out I call []. S8 must be trying to milk money from players for as long as they can since ppl are getting more and more fed up with each event. Is it that they sense the end is near so they are charging for even the slightest chance of finishing a task? Would I pay actual money for a digital animal that I could spend on my real life dog? Actually.... maybe. But how do they expect us to have jobs to pay to finish the games when you can't have a job and finish the game? Lolololol vicious cycle.

I saw one on someone’s farm, it’s a smaller version of the one you pop, not worth my time and definitely no gems for this unattainable event. The hula dancers are cuter!

Fairyreserve
07-13-18, 03:15 AM
I think we all agree this wasn't a great event cuz it was hard. Pretty much unattainable without gems. OK. So... Just don't do this one. I didn't like gnomes, and as soon as I realized this was Gnomes Revisited, I realized this one wouldn't happen for me, and I just moved on. Well have a new event in a week, and maybe that one will be easier. As an android player Events are still a woo hoo for me cuz I spent a year without them. But we're getting one event after another, and consider a few things:

* if it's hard to do, it's more meaningful when you achieve the goal.

* if it was easy enough for everyone to win, it wouldn't be as special. Look at, say, the elephant. Do I love mine? Yes! But so many ppl have one that seeing it on another farm doesn't register with me. But when I see the beaver? It's cool as heck.

* I see alot of complaints about not having any more room, and one of those complaints is mine. So when we do win a new pet that these days needs a new habitat, do u really have somewhere to put it that also allows u to keep the integrity of your farm's design? I don't like eking out room, it looks busy and haphazard. So much as I wanted the penguin, I'm cool letting this one go cuz I'm plum out of room.,anyway, and papers are something I've chosen not to spend gems on.

* not all of us will be winners each time, I'm afraid. There are going to be things that are free and get you good challenging fun, like filling a train. Always free! Then there will be gnomes and penguins that will be technically achievable but realistically will cost u $ to truly do. No way Storm8 doesn't do that on purpose, and... Oh well. Hey, I don't wanna spend $ any more than the next guy, so I just pick my battles. some of these events are more like gifts to us (succulents), and some are gonna be impossible without $ (beaver). This one sucked, fine, but I'm fairly sure another gift will be along.

* I get annoyed when I can't achieve, especially if I really want the pet. If I were missing out on a giraffe I'd be heartbroken. But again, it's not like events are rare. We know another one is on its way down the pike as soon as this one is over so opportunities are about constant. If that weren't the case I'd be more indignant over attainability.

* why we gotta hate on the mods? I've been a mod for a parenting site, and I can tell you, ain't no hell on earth like moderating a vax/anti-anxiety discussion. Take it from me, the job is thankless. Wanna kvetch that you're mad at the game, OK, but don't take it out on the mods.

Ooookie, stepping off.

After a couple of days on task 6 and sending out 30+ plane deliveries since opening this task not one snack has dropped. I would like the hula penguin from this task but right now it seems impossible. I have put in the shop all the event items from the past task since it will be impossible to even reach task 7 at this point. The gnome event was bad but even there is was able to make it to the mysterious 8th task but I couldn't complete the extra 12 tasks that were rolled into one.

Although I don't like the task I do like the hula penguins. I did see where others mentioned that they liked the igloo with the dancing penguin and ice chest where the penguin keeps popping up. Any word from S8 if these will remain as decorations. I used all the igloos but I still have the ice chest ready for collection and I would like to keep it after the event but not if it is not storable.

07-13-18, 10:59 AM
I get your point Fairyreserve. I've got no problem to pass on the events that seem unattainable. It would be hard to be obsessed with getting some colored pixels no matter how cute they are when there is so much going on. The issue that I have is that there is a big likelihood that the next event is going to be the same difficult if not harder. From what I can recall from my poor memory/ they say that it's ok to suffer from memory loss once you turned 18/ the only one event that everybody seemed to like was succulent one. When is was TeamLava events were hard but yet doable but now with Storm8 they are preposterous.

Really great reality check. Thank you. We all have to look at the individual events. And decide if wecare participating or not at the beginning. I now know that because I work pop up events wont ever be completed, and I have set the alarm to collect from animals so that's doable.

I too am android so all these events back to back is exciting. But again you are right you cant win 'em all.

Thanks for reminding me why I love this game. We always have our trains. Someday I will get me a show pony! Could take 20 years but its a goal.

Finally reached the 5 party pack stage. Doubt I?ll be able to finish given drop rates for pigs and deliveries. But as it turns out I wanted the proper penguin and accidentally gave a party pack to the party penguin.
Agree with previous players who remind us all about keeping things in perspective. It?s just a game. And the hula dancer decorations are so cute! I hope we can keep the igloos with dancing penguins as decorations too. 🐧

Hello, I have just finished the event without using gems or real money. I must say it was heaps more challenging than what it should've been. But the penguin is so adorable and actually one of my favourites!! I have included a photo, so everyone can see him. You're also more than welcome to visit my farm. To get a better look at him. But please, I ask of you no feeding the penguin!!! HelloUncertainty is my farm.

Finally finished task 6 after sending out countless plane deliveries. Trying to decide if there is time to finish task 7 before the event ends. I need a lot of pengiun punch from the pigs and the glasses from the pond.

Rynteory2 - I know that the end date states 7/17 but I think on the gnome event the last day was set aside for those who have the event items to craft the gnome. Do you know if the last day for this event is only to decide which pegiun you want or if we can still collection event items though tomorrow? If I have another day there may be just a slight chance to finish task 7 for the last decoration. Also can you ask the team if they will be changing the igloos and ice chests into decorations after the event ends? If they will be turning into decorations I may purchase another ice chest if I get another snack. Thanks

I'll ask but I can't promise I'll get an answer in time. My advise is to finish everything before the event ends, you have until Jul 17. The dateline is stated on the goal screen, it's safer for you to take that as your dateline. Normally crafts, goals, event items, etc become not active once the event ends.

Hope you are able to finish Goal 7, the penguin slide is animated and very cute.


Also can you ask the team if they will be changing the igloos and ice chests into decorations after the event ends? If they will be turning into decorations I may purchase another ice chest if I get another snack. Thanks

All event items turn into decorations when every event ended. No promises on the animations though, I did ask and submitted a request last week.

I seriously doubt I'll finish goal 7 of 7, simply because the drops for the Penguin snacks just are not happening for me. Oh, well. To be honest, after realizing this was another Gnome event...I just kind of gave up. Repeating steps over and over and over again really is not that fun.

I don?t see how I can finish. I?ve been working from home this past week and this week and have had more time to take a break and play the game. I still only have ONE party pack done and will be lucky to finish the second one tonight. There is absolutely no way to finish this unless they increase the drops. I usually get 1-2 bottles or NONE from the pigs and the party penquin doesn?t always drop snowballs. The delivery on the orange fish is like every 15th delivery. I have depleted all my inventory of hard to make items or long time cooking items that I reserve for train deliveries. I never came close on the gnome event but this one I put in MAX EFFORT and it?s going to be for nothing. I?m getting more and more disillusioned with the events. Months back we had ZERO events when they changed developers and coders and now we have them all the time but they?re impossible to finish. After awhile it?s not fun to play. Idk. I love this game and have been loyal for years but I?d like to win at least more than just once every few months or even less. I play every event and give it a lot of effort but usually just get a few decorations. Getting new pets now is impossible. Oh well. I guess there?s only two choices: Play the game and get what you get or quit.

I purchased the penguin crossing a few days back and for the first hour it was great. I had the penguin visit sometimes 3min, 10 min, 15min apart BUT for the last couple of days the penguin has never shown up?

Any one else have this problem? I have a limited space on my farm for it to pop up so I know he is not hiding elsewhere.

Too limited space did cause the problem for me to pop the penguin too. Best thing is fill up the hidden spot but leave space that you can directly see empty . He will surely turn up there. Don?t forget to reload after few mins . The sign does give double amount but I think it?s still not worth it.

Welcome to the Farm 2 forum. :)

You're right, this event is very difficult because of the drops and requirements. I think most of the players are facing the same. I hope this is not your first event because if it is, you have started on a difficult event. Dont be discouraged. Hopefully the next event will be easy or at least easier than this. :)

Less than 1 day left and I'm still stuck at Goal 7. Guess it's time to give up on this event. If a poll is added to this post asking about the event, I would definitely vote for disliking this event. Such a ridiculous event.

Finally submitted my SECOND party pack. Took me almost 2 days to collect the items. What a waste of time. I should’ve quit trying days ago on this one. Really disappointed at how impossible this event was. Idk maybe a subscription business model would be better vs basically forcing ppl to buy gems to succeed in the game. If it were a subscription membership model then we could at least enjoy the game at our leisure vs frantically scrambling to collect items for events and never succeeding. With a subscription they could make the events still challenging but actually feasible and doable and they could still make money. Gem purchase could still be an option for those players with a bigger wallet but at least for some of us on a very tight budget like myself, we could still have hopes of succeeding in events. Just my opinion.

Not sure if anyone else noticed but the penguin actually rubs its tummy and then points to the beak when it needs to be fed. The designers and coders surely have a lot of talent! One of my favorite pets to date.

And that's it, I'm out of time to do anything. I need 8 more Penguin Punch, but my pigs won't be ready for almost 90 minutes more, and the event ends in 60...and there's no guarantee I'd get enough anyway. I could gem through it, but I really don't want to use up 160 gems just to get the Penguin Punch, and then use even more to finish the crafting. Oh well...at least I finished 6 of 7 steps.

I was able to obtain the decoration from the seventh task an hour before the event ended. Now that the event has ended the animation is still working for the pengiuns on the igloo but not the pengiun in the ice chest. Thanks to the team for some very nice decorations. Still hoping they can add the animation back to the ice chest.

This event was impossible for me. I got as far as one party pack, but I bet at the rate I was collecting snow balls and the stuff that dropped from the pigs, it would have taken me another month to complete the last quest and earn a penguin for my zoo. Would never participate in an event like this again, complete waste of time :(

Hmm when I clicked on the igloo and the ice chest (after the event ended), it said I received 40 leaderboard points and started a countdown until the next time I can collect. I don’t see anything about a leaderboard event on my farm, just the boosted deliveries.

Disappointed that I didn’t get a pet penguin, but am happy with the hula penguins and decorations. I spent a lot of time on my farm, but the drops just weren’t happening for me and even if I bought the biggest gem pack it wouldn’t have given me enough gems to finish. Congrats to anyone who finished! Looking forward to visiting some farms with penguins.

By spending a ridiculous amount of time during these last 4 days of playing the game, I was able to complete enough tasks to get 1 penguin pet. By ridiculous, I mean, setting one clock to go off every 9 minutes, 50 seconds and another to go off every 3 hours to tend the pigs... even when I should have been sleeping. I thought other events were hard, but this was like an extreme challenge. If I didn't have a job where I sit at a computer all day, I wouldn't have been able finish with even one pet.

I doubt that y'all really care how much a person spends on goals, only not to be able to finish. This is the second event that I spent a good bit of money. The pigs didn't drop enough to finish goal. I had about 60-70 different fish bait, that I had to use just to get 10 glasses. This being said, I'm closing all of my games. I've spent a lot of money on all of them, but no more. Really loved Farm Story, but not worth it, thanks

I didn't babysit my farm.... I put it on intensive care for last 12 days, setting several alarms for different intervals and collecting from pigs in the middle of nights. And I didn't get to complete this because of the lack of drops from pigs. They just won't yield no matter how many nights I deprived myself of sleep.

Replying to Rynetory’s Poll. not able to find the full site access.

I did not like this event because it was impossible for most players to complete and was way too tedious watching for the penguin and tending the pigs. I got to the last goal , completing 3 party packs. I did not get either penguin. With the low drop rates, I estimate it would have taken 3 additional days. I did like the prizes except for the sunbathing Penguin. The penguins are adorable and the animations very nice.
I think Storm8 invites unhealthy amounts of playing time and takes away the fun with events like these. There must be a better way to get revenue and have the events be fun. I can’t speak for others, but when evens require this much hands on and are this tedious, I will not purchase the needed packages but would rather skip them or not finish because I don’t wish to encourage these practices.

Welcome to the Farm 2 forum. :)

I'm sorry to hear about your penguin punch and sadly that is not a game bug. The drops are random and unfortunately some players have low drop rates. You can see from the event thread that other players are experiencing the same as you and I am also facing this too. All we can do is to keep trying and hoping that we get more with the next collections. I hope you do get some more.

The Penguins' Summer Vacation

Once upon a time in a faraway land where everything is cold and icy... there are 3 penguins who are best of friends - Summer, Bernard and Proper.

The weather got colder as the winter months drew closer and Summer complained of the cold to his other two pals. "Brrrrrr... tis so cold that I couldn't warm the food and I am tired of eating cold pizzas all the time." Bernard suggested they take a vacation and visit their old neighbours, Polar Bear, Husky and Arctic Fox, who have moved to warmer places last year.

"They wrote me letters of how great and warm the weather is at their new homes. But I haven't hear from them lately... the weather is so cold here that even the birds refused to fly our mails the last few weeks! How about we visit them and check their new dens out? They have been asking us to go over for a visit." suggested Bernard. And Proper, being prim and proper, said "But... but.... we are the penguins, we are suppose to like the cold."

Anyways, Summer who has a fondness of summer weather, is all game for the trip and so it was decided that they go for a vacation.

https://forums.storm8.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=45907

When the 3 penguins arrived at my farm, they stayed at the Murray's Holiday Resort which was near to their friends' homes.

Basking in the warm sunshine, they totally enjoyed themselves catching up with their old neighbours, partying and chilling by the pool and enjoying the spa and archery facilities. The 3 penguins were especially thrilled to see hula penguin gals dancing gracefully. It's amazing where Mr. Murray managed to find these lovely dancers.

so i've been debating whether i should write this, not knowing if it'll get read or even matter at all. now that the event is over and i've gotten some sleep, i guess i will go ahead with this (self)reflection... (disclaimer: i was one of the very, very lucky ones that got 1 pet just under the wire)

after years on the farm, this (and the gnome event by association) was hands-down the MOST difficult event(s) i've ever played. yes we all realized early on it was gonna be challenging, but never did i imagine how defeated i would constantly feel throughout this process. my philosophy has always been as long as i keep going, slow and steady, things would work out okay. but this hope was repeatedly beat down when for 3 straight days, i was getting zero to one punch from every 12 pigs collected. which really got me thinking....


yes the drop rates are random, but why are they sooooo different across different farms?!


we've all read about many examples of players who were tirelessly babysitting farms with alarms just to potentially counter the poor drop rates. however, despite doing this round-the-clock, we ended up with 1 person able to get 2 penguins without spending any gems v.s. a small handful getting 1 (w/ or w/o spending) v.s. some not getting anything at all (poor Rynetory2 :(). i am no coder or anything, but to me, the only logical thing i can think of is that there seems to be inherent, drastic differences in how many items each player was getting per collection, which seems to imply this is really all about "luck" again...? and we were perhaps not all on leveled playing fields...?

i admit i don't have much going on in life atm, so i have the luxury of spending way more than average play time on these events. but i also remember a time, not so long ago, when i used to able to finish with relative ease and get rewarded with cute pets even with 12-hr work days. sure, event participation is optional, but if i were new to this game, i can imagine how i would easily feel very discouraged and lose interest in continuing playing with these very challenging events happening every quarter or so...:(

so yup, here is my two cents. wishfully hoping someone may see this one day... thanks for listening. :)
