I already have a headache! The only way to get shovels is from plane deliveries? So far it’s about 1 shovel for every 10 deliveries....this will take forever! :(

The only way to complete this is to either spend significant amount of game money on snow piles or gems on a snow pile, which doesn’t specify how many uses it has in the description. Before I do that I need to know what we get at the end of this. I read the thread but it only gives the first few goals. If I’m going to complete this I need to start now so we all need to know what is in the pot at the end of this rainbow. I didn’t see it above and might have missed it in all the game pop ups we have to endure. What is the prize?

Remember don't use the items needed to complete a goal for another recipe.
Completing the Goal gives you the next recipe.
Like for goal 6 you need 3 Top Hats.
If you decide to start making a snow globe when that first top hat pops out it will be removed from the three you need so please wait until you complete the goal.
You will need bread and apple sugar in some of the recipes so buy it from the newspaper or make it while waiting on event items needed.
That Snowman looks awesome!

I think this time challenge is so hard to complete. The snowman does look awesome but I don't have enough coins (for the snow piles) and time to finish the goals. Also, the deliveries don't always bring home the shovels we need. This Xmas I feel so heartbroken....

You don't get random drops you make the items in those machines and the recipe does not appear until you complete the goal required.

The recipes are on page 1 post 3.

And in post 1 I put the recipe under the goal it appears in.

Thank goodness no random drops.

So I was waiting, waiting... For the snowman to show up, after a while I saw a crazy dude jumping for joy in my farm.

I like him and wonder if the pet snowman will be animated this way otherwise it's okay too cause he's kinda cute... BUT I don't do so well in challenges. Bummer...!

Just to confirm...this is from completing the ALTERNATE goal, "Let's Go and Play," and NOT from completing Goal 8 of 8, right?

And I'll add the pet and habitat to the Pets Habitat thread. Thank you for the info.

Please correct your recipe - the item required is NOT apple juice it is apple sugar - I just spent a lot of time and wasted a lot of sugar trying to make apple cider thinking that was what you meant. My fault for trying to follow your advice and do it ahead! one day I?ll learn my lesson and not try to guess what is meant by others descriptions.

I'm at stage 5 of 8 atm, the pigs are not cooperating at all. From 12 pigs I collect 2 to 3 gifts (mostly 2). Getting tired, and I'm saving up as well to buy the snow piles, and do the deliveries, so yeah, it needs a LOT of effort... :D

At least you are on 5 of 8. I am only now finishing 3 of 8 because deliveries were not dropping Snow Shovels. If I had not been unusually lucky and found 3 Snow Shovels in the Newspaper, I'd still be struggling to get the last of the FIRST round of Snow Shovels....first round, because I already know I'm going to be needing a lot more of them to finish this event.

If you have enough gems you may use them to pay the goal Let's Go and Play (needs 500 gems) because I only have 94 gems atm, so that is impossible (I shopped so many things on the black friday, lols). Imho, the snowman worth the price... :D it's bigger than other pets and can jump!

Yes, it's alot like the hippo event. Just keep selling in your store to make sure you have enough coins to keep buying snow piles. And I have actually found a couple of the snow pile presents in the store, and a decent amount of shovels.

Lapetshop7
12-07-19, 10:32 PM
If my math is correct, the total number of items needed to collect to make the 5 snowglobes and the one snowman treat is:

470 snowballs
170 winter gifts
123 festive presents
50 apple sugar
10 bread
9 simmering token
6 icy offering
10 cold bounty

No don't give up! Keep trying!! You will eventually get the snowman. Just don't give up and keep checking the market and neighbors shops!

After spending 11-12 hours over the weekend staring at the newspaper or neighbors shops to find the snow shovels and festive presents I found enough to complete the 5 snow globes. Spent a lot of coins that were being saved for an expansion. Received the snowman late last night. I was disappointed when I tried to put the Icy Reindeer and Arctic Fox in the new habitat. S8 it would be nice if other pets would be allowed to used the new habitat. Good luck to everyone trying for the new pet.

I’m working on my last snow globe. I find the presents from the pigs the hardest to find anywhere. If I’m lucky they drop 1 each time I feed them, every 3 hours.

Where did you get the new pets?

The Icy Reindeer I purchased last year I believe during a Black Friday sale. I think I saw the icy reindeer during this years sale. The Arctic Fox was from a prior event, not certain how far back, although I believe this pet was available during a sale sometime this year. Sorry for the poor info, possibly Judy or another player could provide a better time line.

After spending 11-12 hours over the weekend staring at the newspaper or neighbors shops to find the snow shovels and festive presents I found enough to complete the 5 snow globes. Spent a lot of coins that were being saved for an expansion. Received the snowman late last night. I was disappointed when I tried to put the Icy Reindeer and Arctic Fox in the new habitat. S8 it would be nice if other pets would be allowed to used the new habitat. Good luck to everyone trying for the new pet.

Give them time. The month is still young, and I have very little doubt that there will be at least two more events before 31 December (okay, at least one, but most probably two). There is still time for another new pet to be added that will go into the Snow Park. And even if the Icy Reindeer and the Arctic Fox won't go into the Snow Park, have you tried some of the other pets? For example, Tucker the Seal or the Yeti (or any of the pets that normally go into the Icy Igloo)? Perhaps one of them might also go into the Snow Park...

I do hope some new pets will use the snow park. I did try the Yeti, seal and the Santa Dalmation with no luck.

It lives in a brand new habitat - the Snow Park (3000 coins).



Is the Snow Park the only habitat that will work for the snowman? Will any of my habitats that I already have work... like igloo, or other?

Hmm, I don’t know. When I first got the pet and tried to put it out I was directed to Gentle Gazebo. When I clicked tiny i for habitat info, Snow Park the only habitat listed. Are you short of coins? The Snow Park is 3000 coins and is a really nice looking habitat that could serve as decoration. Everyone should buy it in my opinion.

I am working on my 3rd snow globe atm. Until my husband said it is enough I needed to take a shower! Omg, lols. This event is... I don't know...is it addictive, or frustating. I play (almost) nonstop, 2-3 hrs sleeping time, and if I keep playing that way, I think I could win the Snowman in the end, and say this event is very very doable.

Managed to finish my snow globes and turned them in to receive the Snowman. Now I'm debating whether I should attempt to finish the main goal series and get the sign...coming up short on Festive Presents, though...my Pigs apparently don't understand that it is better to give than to receive ;)

Hi Judy sorry I?m still confused. Do we finish the 8 goals first and then try and make the 5 Globes? I?m on step 7 and I?m not sure if I should give one of the globes as required or make them for the 5 Globe group? Do both tasks give a Snowman? Is it the time Snowman? Should I pick one task over the other? Sorry for a million questions :/

If you want the Snowman pet, do NOT complete goal 8 of 8. Make the 5 Snow Globes and turn them in for the "Let's Go and Play" goal instead. The other goal series gives some sort of sign decoration.

So no reason to finish this goal thing then wow. They did this before I got the deco as well on another event. So basically ONLY do the 5 Snow Globes challenge if you want the pet? Right?

Unfortunately the gifts from pigs are a random drop so all you can do is keep collecting and watch the newspaper and check your neighbours store because as other players get done the event they are selling these gifts.
Keep trying the Snowman is a cute pet.

I had also bought items from the shop for deliveries, I then check the game because I was sure I had all items ready yet nothing at the mills neither the items I bought were in storage.

I'm afraid if you completed the wrong goal. At first we must complete the first 7 of 8 goals but DO NOT complete the 8th one. Hold on there. And after you craft 5 snow globes and a snowman treat, you must complete the Let's Go and Play goal, and that will get you your Snowman. Is it clear? :(

The pigs are sooooooo frustrating. I just collected from 12 pigs twice and NOTHING. I despise the ?make a bunch of random junk? events. Leaderboard is alright, but I miss the events where you turn in a bunch of items and each request is worth 1-5 stars. Earn stars to get cool stuff. I quit this event and am selling everything from it. 😑

12-16-19, 05:30 PM
It is not worth your time, it is just a sign to finish the 8th step, not even a special sign. A decorated Christmas tree would have been more appropriate (and way better). I went for the snowman first on the side goal, and then finished step 8 today thinking surely after all that work it couldn’t be just a sign ��

Succede anche a me...e non una sola volta! Non so darmi altra spiegazione se non che ci sia momentanea assenza di connessione...quindi tutto quello che si fa va a finire in una sorta di buco nero...ovvero nel nulla....e il tempo ritorna indietro a quando la connessione era attiva. Questo significa alla fine che tutto il lavoro fatto in quel lasso temporale "irreale" sparisce perch? di fatto non ? mai stato fatto. Come se fosse una nostra illusione o visione. Non so darmi\darti altra spiegazione. Mi dispiace. Buona fortuna per il futuro.

The onfo on back is incorrect
The bat can go in the Bird Tree or the Haunted House

Or the Gazebo.
