In Farm Story they keep flashing in the lower left corner. What is the purpose and how do we get them and what do we do with them. I love the game but hate that there are never any directions.!

Someone just told me about these. They were collecting them then the button and items disappeared. I am guessing a new thing coming out soon?

Hi. I had the same thing happen during watering my neighbors crops last night
Then it was gone again after about an hour.

"Kooky says it's probably..."
So...you're guessing-probably:p.

Does that mean that you don't know what this is:confused:?

I just went into Farm Story to check my plants and now my Collectibles are missing!! What is going on? Does anyone know? A while ago I tried to take a photo but it just flashes momentarily when you water another farm. It disappears too quickly to get a picture.????

Those two do not have the same meaning. Please don't presume comments like that - I don't want other posters getting the wrong idea about what is or isn't coming out in game.

As for the feature, I would need to know how it's being displayed in-game before I can identify it, or have engineering fix it.

Apologies:(. But thank you...

What is a "collectable?" Is it part of the badges or something else? I have neither.

Oh nmishii you're Android like me right? So I'm guessing we will get neither.

Ok, collectables are something for idevice only. Got it.

But at least you got ghost flowers :D:D:D

The ghost flowers are too small and ugly, and I'm just guessing about the collectibles being only for idevice first. But you know the best indicator of future behavior is past behavior.

I also had them for about 10 minutes. In addition to it flashing out from the home button on the bottom left hand corner, when I went to home to bring up my profile, there were 6 buttons. Profile, Social, Invite, Settings, Help, & Collectibles. It was a pretty blue/purple button. I opened it and found a long list of things. Longer then the list of badges. Each row had 4 items to collect. Some items it showed I had collected already. Then, there was a Redeem button with something beside it on each row. Each row had something different next to it to redeem. Only thing I remember is one of them was a gnome.

It seems like it only flashed out when watering a neighbor's crop once in a while. Kind of like I was finding something in their crop while watering. Was tempted to 'redeem' something, but wanted to find out more. Came to the forum to see if there was an announcement. Even searched, but did not find anything.

Went back to my farm & it had all disappeared. The pretty button was gone & everything.

Glad to find out someone else had seen it. ;-). Looked very interesting! Hope it is something coming soon! ;-)

You are welcome. However, I do not know if it is something that is going to be released. Just hoping as it was fun while it lasted.

I was quite excited to see the collectibles as I was watering other farms. It kept flashing in, and out for me too, and then within the hour it was gone. I do remember the first line was bugs, and you could trade for coins. The second line could be traded for a rack of tools, and there was another line for coins, a line for a cowboy on a horse with a lasso, a barn with a tractor in it, and I can't remember anything else..lol

iPhone version, and not sure which version. dont know how to tell

Go to your main menu then Help/FAQ. At the bottom of that screen it tells the version.
