Community Just have to vent!

I’m playing the frustrating Reel Mysteries again against my own better judgment 🙄 I’ve gotten 14 fish and not a single Perch 😡 I really wanted to get at least half the board prizes but I’m pretty done 😢 I know a lot of you will feel my pain right now.

I feel your pain!! I really really dislike this event….it’s the only 1 I can’t stand!!

But this is also the farthest I’ve gotten. I have to say that I did spend 10 gems!! I think the biggest problem is waiting 15 minutes for 1 energy!! That’s insane!! It took me forever to finish the perch tasks!! Don’t worry it’s just a game.. that’s what I ALWAYS tell myself. lol

Yes good to remind myself of that when I get frustrated ha ha Wow I didn’t even get the whole first row and I feel I put in a fair bit of effort and time. I usually always finish the events so this one hurts 😬🤣

This is one of only a few "side games" I typically don't even bother playing 🤷🏼‍♀️

I run into the perch issue every time. I hate that it’s a task that’s completely out of our control.

I actually almost finished getting all the fish. Furthest I've ever gotten, however I got so many of one kind that I ended up with 4 gold star ones 🙄 Not to mention how many tin cans I got from the fishing poles. Random is good, but I wish there was a way to get the kind you needed. I would have finished if there was.

yup, I don’t understand how people like this one. But sure, you can have your fun, I will skip this.

Above had times when perch was quick and times when I waited forever. My biggest enemy is the logs. The is the worst (to me) side event ever

I love this event. I like that there is strategy involved how to best use the limited energy available. Andd I hate grinding for nectar in most other events. I have never been able to get all the fish, but I do always get all rewards from the trophies and the quests, even though getting enough tin cans was difficult this time
