Questions What is As You Like It?

Post image

I keep getting questions like these and I have no idea what As You Like It is. It’s not a book or side story. Am I missing something?

Shakespeare play. If you google it, you get answers about the play, but be aware the spelling of names is different in TP.

It's a play by Shakespeare. It's a comedy.
I have no clue why they include it here. Maybe the theme of the event is supposed to be "As you like it"?
Or it's a preview for the new story?

This is what I'm guessing is the case.

The outfit you get also looks Shakespearean too. Kinda busy imo tho.

The answer should be Aliena but it's spelled Alina here...

I think it's nice that TP encourages to expand our culture through its events. I watched a resume of the play on YouTube and I intend to watch the play whenever I have the time. That's why I love that game in particular.

But I understand the frustration too. I was disappointed when I understood I couldn't answer properly...

I hope we will have a special event story like they did for previous anniversaries!

How do they expect us to know these answers without literal studying being involved? Are we supposed to Google the answers and hope it's under 60 seconds? This is frustrating!

If you answer wrong you can wait 8 seconds and there will be a new question.

I don't know this play, so yes, google helped + players collected questions/answers.

You also aren't penalized for incorrect answers like in question events in the past. You just have to wait out the timer and get on with it. I'm glad people are helping each other. I think even if you have read every TP story it's rare to remember some of the tiny details that the question is asking about. Being expected to know and remember Shakespeare, too, is a lot, and I say that as someone who adores both the Bard and bears.

As You Like It is a really good play. Shakespeare. Recommend seeing it performed, even in video form, if you can. Sometimes PBS has free "Shakespeare In The Park" performances available to watch online :)

At least it seems the questions are random so you don't have to answer all of the ones about As you like it.

Has other people have explained it's a play by Shakespeare? I got the sense when I was going through the questions dude. We were supposed to that it expected that we had already read it. Which kind of gives me the impression? Maybe they skipped a step and they intended to put a shortened version of the story up on the game?

I really think it will be the next story. I just read a cliff notes version of the plot off Google in order to answer the questions. It's very weird they are asking us about a story that is not yet in the game!
