    Now Introducing Castle Story: Valentine's Day Edition!

    Hi everyone,

    I wanted to stop in to pass along some exciting news about upcoming Castle Story updates. In the next few days, Castle Story: Valentine's Day Edition will be made available on the App Store. This special enhanced edition has tons of new content exclusive to this version, including:

    - The long-awaited building upgrades feature!
    - Dozens of new plants, trees, and decorations!
    - Over 30 new goals for beginning and advanced players alike!
    - A new crafting building filled with recipes!
    - A new Adventure that drops a wide variety of premium items!
    - New Valentine's Day-themed animals with special drops
    - The new Alicorn, a winged unicorn that refills your energy!

    In order to take part in Castle Story: Valentine's Day Edition, you will need to download it from the App Store when it becomes available. Your existing kingdom and quest status will be carried over to your new adventures.

    Can you unravel the mysterious love frenzy that's affecting the Glimmer Wood, and help your friends cope with the effects?

    We expect this new edition to be available within the next three days (before the weekend). While you wait, here are some images from it!



    We hope you enjoy.


    Thread Summary

    Which version to play - play the Valentine version. If you play using both versions you can have sync issues. The items you buy in the Valentines item will be in your regular game. They may just take a little while to load.

    Upgrade Buildings - if the "Gather Materials" button doesn't appear force close and restart your game. Please note that when you upgrade a building the collection time resets. It's best to upgrade after you've just collected.

    Upgrading town buildings increases the rent. Upgrading royal buildings increases the rent and royal points. Upgrading resource buildings decreases collection time. You cannot upgrade crafting or special buildings.

    Some buildings use golden items in the higher level upgrades.

    Entwined Seeds - these are rare drops from flowers, bushes, weeds, mushrooms, trees, wood items (eg tree log).

    Kissing Dust - these drop when collecting from plants, chopping wood, mining stone, harvesting crops. Red mushroom circles seem to have a good drop rate.

    Love Wood - this appears when chopping wood or collecting from sawmills.

    Love Wood - this appears when mining rock or collecting from mines. It can be crafted in the Love Shack.

    Pink Jewel - these are rare drops from mining and mines.

    Lovecupines - they tend to appear when tending/harvesting the new valentines plants/trees. They drop pink furs and rat tails.

    Gem Items - can be crafted in the Love Shack

    All gem items in Castle Story are also available through crafting, quests and adventures. No items are Gem-only.

    Normal animals, hatcheries and stables also drop the new items like chocolate eggs/truffles/milk chocolate and red ribbons.

    Love Shack - complete the Strangeness in the Air quest to unlock the shack. You can craft the new valentine items in here, including the alicorn. There are also two recipes that can be unlocked that allow you to craft random valentine plants and trees.

    If you see a message in the shack stating your inventory is full for walls/towers/gates it means you've reached the limit. You need to sell some of your existing ones to craft new ones.

    Expansions -

    You do not get valentine plants/trees when expanding, only normal ones.

    The Love Shack! LOL

    Looks like the alicorn will be the result of another of Ivy's failed experiments.
