I'm so glad you made a post, Rynetory! I wanted to talk about this sale.
First, Easter Estuary is not my favorite habits, but a premium habitat for 80 gems? Yes, please! It's just what my baby account needs! I love the Flower one, but it *only* holds Spring element, and I can't have an entire habitat space tied up when I don't have animals for it yet. I do have this habitat on the MyMonta account, so that will have to be good enough. I also enjoy the Palatial Gardens, and it is now upgradeable, but that involves an extra 100 gems, so 300 total.
As for the animals, both the Snapdragon and the Peaony Pony get new colors in them once you grow them to level 15! I already have a level 15 Snapdragon on one account, but I've always wished I could have a second one to keep in the original colors, too. At 120 gems each, I think thee critters are a steal! The Dandelion is an adorable baby, but, unfortunately, that is the only level I like him at.
Anyway, just my opinions. Is anyone else buying anything in this sale?
I have thought about buying the 80 gem habitat. I can't justify buying gems though with the way the game is going not even for 4.99.
Another sale that millions are players can?t use as we have no space. It?s been over a year since we could expand. Long term players are treated like dirt.
I also have thought about buying the 80 gems habitat. And I did, because update another for 100 gems and make some room for one more creature, is more expensive than the 80 gems for this hab and I'm doing exactly the same thing. So I did bought it. Please more of this type of sales;)
I happily bought several Easter Estuary. :)
Excellent point AppieP, that it's cheaper to buy a new habitat instead of upgrading it.
Haha your wish came true. Another doorbuster sale today. :) I love having these doorbuster sales!
I like these sales unfortunately I don't have much gems after the first sale, wish I could get 1 permanent gem buddy.
I posted in the add me forum but I don't think anyone even checks there, anyways please continue with these sales as well as offering more expansions for those maxed.
Thanks! :)
These Sales wld b good if I cld actually buy anything, but iv no space so I can?t
I like these sales, too, and hope they keep doing them.
I love the sale, but I wish we could purchase habitats to store until you have space in your forest.
And again happy with another 80 gems habitat:cool:
I'm going to get a Magnetic Mesa. I bought a Sobek and plan to get the Egyptian cat, too.
Well done! I'm still pondering if to get the cat or spend gems on the habitats instead. The prices of these habitats are so attractive that I couldn't decide.
I'm trying to figure out where to place the lava lagoon before buying it. Lots of decisions to make before the sale ends.
Ok I bought the Magnetic Mesa and was trying to decide where it fits in my forest....
I don't have a Space Quad for my Space creatures. I like the design of the Space Quad set from Storm8 but I didn't buy them cos they have gaps between them unfortunately. Suprisingly the Magnetic Mesa fitted nicely with my space habitats. Not perfect but not too bad for a DIY I think. Now I have my own Space Quad. :o

I love sales and will usually splurge during one, but I've resolved not to spend another red cent in FFS until its future becomes clearer or at least unstuck from the tar pit it seems to have fallen into. :blue:
This week's theme is the Harry Potter/magic themed animals and habitats. Not my interest. I was really looking forward to scooping up another 80 gem habitat, but these are all 160 and then upgradeable for 100 more gems to hold 5 animals instead of 4. I don't really like the looks of The Ptich and Bygone Alley, but Sorcerer's School is kind of cool.
Airy Otter never goes on sale any cheaper than this, I don't think, and is never breedable, so if this is one you've been wanting, this is the time to get it. I don't believe that Red Weasely and Wise Eagle are breedable, either, but I think I have seen Wise Eagle on sale for less than the current asking price of 180 gems. I could be wrong, though.
This week the Fountain of Youth (FOY) habitats are on sale for 160 gems. Couple things about this: I wish that they were still selling habitats for 80 gems. Anything over 150 isn't really much of a deal in my opinion. I know that these habitats are typically 400 gems, which is ludicrous, so it's a bargain in that sense. These habitats only hold 4 animals and are not upgradeable. Second, why didn't they ever create FOY habitats for *all* the elements?? Another half-you-know-what job on S8 behalf. I would love to have ones for lightning, dark, and crystal animals. I have these on my older accounts. I will probably pick up a Foreverland for my baby account because it holds water, leaf, *and* fire.
Animals on sale are Rocking Horse (270 gems), Storking (75 gems - very tempting!), and Icegator (210) gems - I don't think I have an Icegator on any of my accounts yet, but I'm also not sure I want to spend approx $7 US on one. Storking *might* be breedable and was on sale a few months ago for 100 gems, so this is a good bargain, but I would breed for it first. Rocking Horse has *never* been breedable. He was on sale more cheaply a few months ago, so this isn't the best price. Icegator *might* be breedable, and he usually sells for more gems than this, so this is a bargain for him. The only connection I see between them is that they are winter/holiday animals I guess? (Rocking Horse is a popular children's gift at Christmas.)
Funny thing is that when I started this new account, my whole plan was to not focus on the animals that are always in the market and breedable, but to make this account about everything *new* going forward, and now there is not much new coming out, and it is so tempting to buy these older animals at good prices. :(
Oh I love to see what you did with them. :) Feel free to post in the Christmas Habitats thread. https://forums.storm8.com/showthread...stmas-Habitats
Please please bring back the 80 gems habitats. :D
I hope there?s a gem sale too! I?m out of gems but reallly want these fountain of youth ones :)
Several of us commented that we loved the 80 gem habitats, so now they quit offering them, charging 160 per habitat instead..........way to please your customer base, S8! 160 gems is barely a sale because these habitats were all previously only 200 gems to purchase anyway. I'm not buying old habitats that I already have: I want new content.
I would like to get the Wombattery, which I don't have on any account. He is not breedable, so I have to decide if I want to spend approximately $7 US to get him. These sale animals are actually some of my favorite animals, but I already have them on my older accounts, so it would be a waste of money to buy them for my baby account. I wish that they would introduce something new that we could breed for. Also, why sell the Charger when we can all get it in the Battlegrounds?
Great to see the 80 gems habitat is back! :love_heart: Love the Mystic Mire!
It is great but when you can’t expand quick enough to have space to buy these habitats when they’re on sale then 80 or 800 gems..... it doesn’t really matter because I can’t buy any! I really wish we could request ruins from neighbours or something. The expanding is so tiresome and spoils these sales for me. I’m happy for other players who can benefit from these sales, always nice items available. It just really isn’t game enhancing for me.
I have no space to expand and every space in my forest is occupied so I can?t buy any habitats. Which is a shame as during my break from the game I missed some amazing ones and wld love to get them if they came on sale but that won?t be happening.and at that price! I hate having to sit that out! Wish I cld give u all my 1822 runes so u could expand and get more habitats. They are worthless to me now.
