... and a new flower, primrose. Alas, a 1 gem stunt !

I've asked this before without any answer but does anyone or know anyone who has quite a number of roses ? What I'd like to know is whether you still need 7,500 Leaf Points to master it or something less ? Clue would be in the leaf indicator in the Store.

.. and a new fruit stand for 20 gems.

[MiniLaura]

Please post photos of the new box items!

Thanks!

Ah, that kind of catapult. It'll be for the Android Wars - heaving overripe melons at the iOS guys :)

[yanochka]

No castle, dragons and knight....

Thanks for posting the photos! They're great. If you have a chance, can you also post photos of the items placed on your farm. It's easier to see the details of the things that way :)

So far, I like the bridge the best.

huh. The shadow on the bridge is very weird. Why is the railing only on one side?

Also--that's one big bucket of milk. Must have been from a giant cow.

[yanochka]

Not arranged yet to be pretty...

[hectorloch]

Thanks, Epiphany. Great show ! I think the best - at least the most appropriate for our farms - are the grain barrels. I'd love to have them but I'm sworn off the boxes :)

Donkey too, I suppose.

heres another view of bridge. No castles or dragons or trolls or gargoyles in this medieval theme........

My gnomes cannot get any of the feast!!! Someone else is "hogging" all the food!!!

[munchiez11]

Wow! Thank you Yanochka for putting up the pictures! And Hectorloch, I agree with you. Why in the world would anyone want to put a feast outdoors without any protection or covers?

A picture says a thousand words :)

I know these are a really fun thing for lots of people;however, in the new farm surprise, there are all but 1 that I would buy - I am not the gamblin' type. It seems as if some players like far out stuff - put those in the surprise gifts and sell other items for gems. That way all of us would get to have new stuff. I think that this would make more money for TL but maybe it is an elitist thing- don't know. But, truly, from posts I have read there a lot of people like me that want the things offered but don't want 8 of the same thing. But, am also getting the idea that TL is going to do their thing - must be working for majority of players!!! Sure understand, just don't have to like!!!!!

What is with the scale of things this week? That dragon is so tiny!

[babynmum]

Do you get all these items in one go or are they individually bought? Sorry .. I'm new at this ...

[kooky panda]

If you buy from box you get one random item for 24 gems. It is a gamble. If you buy more than one box you might get duplicates .

[MiniLaura]

You get one item each time you buy a box and you don't get a choice on what you get. It is a total gamble. The odds of getting a specific item depend on its prize level. Fourth prize has a chance of 50+% and first prize has only a 1% chance. The actual odds are given in other threads: http://forums.teamlava.com/showthread.php?13844-Exclusive-Gem-Items-for-all-Stories-*Master-List*

Minimum dragon price for me is $19.99. Not going to happen. I'm still reeling from my $10 cat.

[hectorloch]

Handy dragon - if your fire pit went out ! Assuming you have a fire pit in the first place. I suppose what TL are doing is instead of launching a new game, they are using the existing FS as a template base so that players can choose a variety of "sub games" from within the same app. Neat idea. Downside must be that each week the update will bring less and less across the board for all players - it'll be a bit Medieval, a bit Cosmic, a bit Bicycle (still intrigued by that one) and I guess oldie farmers - every theme player really - will get less and less ideal for them in each Update.

No plants this week. Oh well, gives me a chance to catch up on the last two which I still have at Leaf 3.

Happy Farming.

Gnome, Shmome, I'd rather get more gems. ...and lots of 'em! :)
