    Castle Story: 1/12 - Ice Queen Event! | * all goal details in post 1! *

    ICE QUEEN STAGE EVENT!

    Requires level 26+ | Minimum game version is iOS/Android 1.6
    If you have not manually started the event by 1/15, the game will start the event for you. You will have 10 days from the date you start to complete the event.

    Calculations of resources (thanks TerraRanomi!) available in this post: click here!


    Time Zone Converter: compare where you are with California

    Notes about the Event
    1. It's not that you have one day to complete a chapter - it's that another chapter won't UNLOCK until the next day.
    2. If you finish the chapter early, you have to wait for the remainder of the time to expire before the next chapter starts. You have to complete a chapter to begin the next chapter.
    3. If you take longer than a day to complete a chapter then the next one will start sooner.
    4. If you gem skip a chapter, the next one doesn't start sooner (you will wait even longer!).
    For those on chapter 4 today, remember NOT to upgrade castle and keep topping up on snowflakes and snowballs. Make loads (26 are needed) of snow blocks and use the fast worker boost before upgrading.
    reminder: do not upgrade the building until you are done collecting all your extra materials or until the next chapter starts as otherwise you close the chapter and special materials stop dropping and you can't get ahead for the next day.

    Hi, I'm Neva! To tell you the truth, I'm looking for a change of scenery, and I heard you were the ruler of this fine Kingdom. Maybe we could work something out so that I could stay?
    Chapter 1:
    Goal 1 Visit farmhouses 0/5 VISIT (skip 15 gems)
    Goal 2 Visit the jeweler 0/1 VISIT (skip 10gems)
    Goal 3 Build ice castle's foundation 0/1 BUILD | 30 blue petals, 30 purple petals, 20 glimmer dust, 30 living wood | Goal prize: 2 glimmerdust


    Wow! I must say, I've never been welcomes with such open arms! It's lovely here, but there is one small problem: it's a little warm. Perhaps we could cool down my humble abode with some winter magic!
    Chapter 2:
    Goal 1 Chop an icy willow 0/1 CHOP (skip 10 gems) | purchase in the market, 100 coins each
    Goal 2 Gather snowflakes 0/25 GO | drops from Icy Willows
    Goal 3 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 2 0/1 BUILD | 50 Jewels, 99 wood, 15 golden eggs, 99 snowflakes | [COLOR="#800080"]Goal prize:5 snowflakes/COLOR]
    Note: Golden Eggs sources from Inventory Guide: chickens, Glimmeregg Bunny, Fireworks Griffin, Golden Mine, Griffin Roost, Royal Griffin, Parrot, Griffina (Baron's tent)


    I heard we potentially have a new friend in the kingdom! We should break the ice and enjoy some good 'ol winter fun. Who's up for a snowball fight?
    Chapter 3:
    Goal 1 Mine a rock outcropping 0/1 GO (skip 20 gems)
    Goal 2 Gather Icy Snowballs 0/20 GO
    Goal 3 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 3 0/1 BUILD | 50 snowflakes, 50 icy snowballs, 30 living wood, 30 purple petal | Goal Prize - 5 snowflakes


    Ivy is quite the character, and an artist when it comes to making the perfect snowball. Come to think of it, I think we can use these icy snowballs to make snow blocks! Surely they can keep the inside of my castle cool.
    Chapter 4:
    Goal 1 Clear an icy willow 0/1 GO (skip 10 gems)
    Goal 2 Make a snow block 0/1 Go | Workshop, 30 minutes - 20 snowflakes, 10 icy snowballs, 1 simple glue | speed up is 2 gems
    Goal 3 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 4 0/1 BUILD | 30 glimmerdust, 30 prime cuts, 4 snow blocks, 50 snowflakes | Goal Prize - 2 snowballs


    I really miss the flowers from my homeland. It's not that the flowers here aren't great, the Frosty Dahlias from home just had the most beautiful Icy Petals. I wish I could decorate my new home with them!
    Chapter 5:
    Goal 1 Grow Frozen Dahlias 0/2 BUY | Purchase them in the market
    Goal 2 Gather Icy Petals 0/4 GO | Collect those from Frozen Dahlias
    Goal 3 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 5 0/1 BUILD| 15 fancy blocks, 4 snow blocks, 25 icy petals, 30 blue petals | Goal Prize - 2 icy petals
    Note 1: For those who bought the frozen dahlias already, they don't start dropping icy petals until around Chapter 5. I didn't try the campfire, but it more than likely doesn't drop fire embers until later as well. Also, once they do start dropping, you won't be able to collect between chapters. So if you have extra energy, try to collect as many as possible before you finish the chapter. [from kattkrazie]
    Note 2: The dahlias and campfire will count in the later chapters if you have already purchased them. It will autocomplete. [from kattkrazie]



    Hey, so, this is a bit awkward, but...uh...you remember how I said the castle needed to be colder? Now it's a little "*too* cold. I'd borrow a coat but as you can see, I'm a little bit smaller than most of you around here.
    Chapter 6:
    Goal 1 Start a Cozy Campfire 0/1 | Buy this in the market
    Goal 2 Gather Fire Embers 0/5 GO (skip 50 gems)
    Goal 3 Gather Icy Wood 0/5 GO | drops from Icy Willows
    Goal 4 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 6 0/1 BUILD | 25 icy wood, 4 snow blocks, 25 icy petals, 18 fire embers | Goal Prize - icy wood


    Whoa! The fire embers are causing the floors to get slippery in Neva's castle! I think I have a better solution to balance the temperature...a magical solution. Will need a few ingredients first though.
    Chapter 7:
    Goal 1 Slay an Arctic Bear 0/1 FIGHT (skip 50 gems)
    Goal 2 Gather more Arctic Fur 0/1 GO
    Goal 3 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 7 0/1 BUILD | 2 snow blocks, 10 arctic fur, 12 icy wood | Goal Prize - 1 arctic fur


    Let's whip up a batch of Ember Essence! This stuff will keep Neva warm and won't affect the ice her castle is made of. It smells really good too! Speaking of smells, the Arctic Bears seem to be attracted to the scent of the campfire! Let's fend them off.
    Chapter 8:
    Goal 1 Slay an Arctic Bear 0/1 FIGHT (skip 50 gems)
    Goal 2 Brew Ember Essence 0/1 GO | Potion Shop, 2 hours - 3 fire embers, 6 icy wood, 1 arctic fur (speed up is 8 gems)
    Goal 3 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 8 | 4 snow blocks, 4 ember essence, 30 icy petals | Goal Prize - 4 icy petals


    I see the construction of my castle has caused quite the stir in your kingdom and others. How can we blame them? It *is* pretty magnificent. Maybe you could introduce me to the neighboring kingdoms? Not to worry, we'll get back to work as soon as we get back!
    Chapter 9:
    Goal 1 Visit neighboring kingdoms 0/50 VISIT (skip 50 gems)
    Goal 2 Ask for Builders Permits 0/20 ASK (skip 80 gems) | neighbour request
    Goal 3 Collect icicles 0/3 GO | will auto complete if you have ones in inventory
    Goal 4 Make ice beam 0/1 MAKE | Workshop, 1 hour - 1 snow block, 3 fire embers, 2 icicles
    Goal 5 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 9 | 5 ember essence, 30 icy petals, 3 ice beams | Goal Prize - 2 arctic fur
    Note: You can collect the icicles and craft the ice beams while waiting for the neighbor requests to come back. And don't forget to use the eleven boosts to cut crafting time in half. (kattkrazie)


    Wow, the people who speak of this kingdom weren't kidding when they said it had a kind ruler. You've welcomed me to your home and built me a beautiful place to call my own. What's this...? More gifts? You shouldn't have!
    Chapter 10:
    Goal 1 Give hearty feasts 0/2 GIVE (skip 50 gems)
    Goal 2 Give truffles 0/10 GIVE
    Goal 3 Gather icy petals 0/5 GO | will auto complete if you have ones in inventory
    Goal 4 Upgrade the Ice Castle to Level 10 | 2 snow blocks, 30 icy petals, 5 ember essence, 3 ice beams
    The Grand Prize is yours! Congratulations! You have won Neva!

    [Note: Neva is in your inventory (edit/inventory]



    ****** Note: drops stop after upgrading the castle to level 10. Once you get Neva, she is now the ONLY source of drops to be used in the Snowy Workshop. Collect as many as you can before upgrading (if time allows)*****

    Got it. Mine showed up after several more refreshes. Holding off on starting until we have some more info. I usually start these storybook events when it auto starts and I've read through all the forum info and know what to expect.
    Good luck everyone! And thanks to all the pioneers forging ahead and posting the info!
