STORYBOOK: Arctic Freeze - 2018 Nov 2 (POLL ADDED)

@jmatarii shouldn't the evolution in ch 7 be 12 hours? (9 for low lvl ppl) 6 hours doesn't cost 24 gems to skip, it's usually double the amt of evolve time

Act 2: Collect Aerodynamic Rune from Evolving x6 (Skip 18 Gems) 1 x 1h

Firehopper ... 15 hour hatching and evolving times ... BEWARE!

I can?t even begin to imagine what the food cost is going to be for this one

I guess this is a way to tweak the difficulty of story books up, without changing the format much. it also improves the chances people will start the LB with a pretty big incentive upfront and takes the edge off not finishing the event by neutering the grand prize. Getting an ultra rare up front and raising it up to 15 also improves new players chances of finishing the battle requirements for this event. if this wasn't a goof up, it may not be a terrible change to the format. my only concern is the amount of food required to raise it to 15. i think 15 hours is not a terrible evolve time and usually i have plenty of time during the event to pre-evolve animals before the goal comes up.

Ok thanks for checking!

well if thats correct that we get the ultra rare first there may be a few reasons for that

One might be they are randomly mixing things up
Since theres been less variation lately thats possible
It could be accidental

Another might be an experiment to see if we are still motivated to finish

And i have noticed mostly i am motivated to finish because i just like to get to the end regardless

Of course good prizes help. But unless theres a big change i have too many animals in storage so its just to finish

When i run out of space i cant see how i will continue to do any events which need any new spaces for animals

I have a busy week this week so not sure how that will impact, will have to see. And time is a factor for everyone

Eh. Penny just dropped
Ultra rares take a phenomenal amount of food
We just had two leaderboard events which scuppered my food as i needed to feed as we had to have something to evolve

Plus i blew too many gems on that

Yeah this should be interesting

I'm not worried about the evolution time as it's a 10 day event, plus I'm finding it harder and harder to find animals to evolve that meet the minimum time requirements since they have introduced so many 5 hour animals in recent month. That being said, my concern with them labeling the animals as Ultra Rare vs Rare, etc, is that, if everyone reaches the first animal, but not everyone reaches the final animal, then the first one is not truly an Ultra Rare. I mean, I actually thought that the labels meant something - meant how difficult it was to obtain the animal, and not everyone would necessarily have it. Apparently it doesn't mean anything then?

My older account has no room and not much food, so I played through to get the first animal and will play until I get the 5000 free apples, and then that account is done. It pains me to not have a collection, but these animals are really uninspiring to me and since I have nowhere to put them anyway, who cares? My second account will complete unless I decide at some point in the next few days that it just isn't worth it.

Not gonna bother on any of my accounts. Animals aren?t that exciting to me and I can?t b bothered with losing an other tournament.

I like the bunny best as juvenile form...I wish we didnt always need to level so high

I really like this game and play it most days when I can, so thanks to s8. However I do have an issue with the relative size of some animals, especially those which we have to evolve for storybooks. I have several disproportionately large dogs, cats and other animals which I try and hide away and now it looks like I am going to have another huge rabbit - shrubunny is far too big as well, I really hate these huge unrealistic creatures.

Yes to this! I?m not a fan of this switch gig at all - I?m less motivated to complete all the chapters for a rare animal and sad about all the food I?ll have to use up if I do

IMO if they?re trying to make certain players happier with the Storybook the better thing to do is make commons actually common to breed!

I like the design of the bunny and wolf tho
