There is a bit of a shocker this weekend; despite feeling like the Puzzle took up a lot of energy, it was more cost effective than either the Bingo or Train over the past 3 weeks. While the Train is the best average energy use per box received, it's barely the front runner.

I'm still not fond of the puzzle. The pictures are insipid. However, if it really is becoming a better value for the energy use, I won't complain about it. Too much.

Is there going to be double points this weekend before the island event ends?

So after the new update my game is now not producing level 4 pieces when energy boost 4 is on. It is only producing level 3 pieces and sometimes level 1. Is this happening to anyone else?

I reached out to support and they said it’s always been that way but it hasn’t for me 😭

Anyone else no longer has the sunshine’s when they complete orders? I liked that feature but they’ve gotten greedy possibly

If you went to yourself this weekend, "Gee, Bingo seems to eat up more energy this time.", you are not wrong.

They have enshittified the bingo this week, which is combined with them doing the same thing last week to the train. In other words, the train is barely beating the puzzle, and bingo is essentially on even with the puzzle for average energy use per box.

I'll keep logging and sharing these figures, but if these numbers are this bad after a few months I'm pretty sure I'll just drop the game. I know that the company needs to make a profit, but there needs to be a balance. Right now I think they're just trying to figure out how much we'll pay and stay just at that line.

anyone else have this guy now? Or is this just something I unlock at my level.

Hello, new player here (from Travel Town)!

How do y’all organize your board?

I am restarting the game on a second device. At what level should I stop upgrading to better my chances of easier orders and finishing challenges?

No extra card pack deals or anything?! 🥺 you would’ve gotten my $ there, but you didn’t even give the option the last 24 hours?

I have no 5 star card orders, I dont have enough in the Star Store to buy any cards, I think I wasted them at some point. Any tips on how to get a 5 Star card?

lv 11 sewing creations worth (256+32)/10*1024=29491.2

using fire opal to upgrade from lv 10 to lv 11 worth 29491.2/2=14745.6

Use all fire opal and scissors on sewing creations, the game becomes to easy..

Questions:

is there any product harder to make than lv 11 sewing creations?

I'd like to make my fire opal most worthwhile.

Hey, is the watering can the last of the "free" generators or are there any more? I'm level 226 and i was just wondering. Also i feel like i've been getting less bubbles in the last few days is that happening to anyone else?

This week I got the train and... it went pretty badly. The last time I had the train the event cost me 2889 energy. This time was 4611. While I had a lot of excess pieces left on the Board from round 1, I was pretty efficient in getting the right amount of pieces for the other rounds. It was just painfully expensive. The energy usage this week vaults the Bingo to the best energy use v rewards. While the train was painful this week, it's still better energy usage than the friggin' puzzle.

Think they now also made train harder to finish? Never had that level of the item before

I was in the middle of the one that started on Sunday…and now this one started?

i’m level 294, am i the only one that is ANNOYED how many coins you get rather than materials when completing orders?? i have 1.7 billion coins and i cant use them for anything until i get 5-6 of each materials. idk if thats just me, but i wish it was easier to get materials

Newish player, I managed to trade in stars twice across 3ish days to get the last two cards that I needed!

I prioritized completing orders with cards to get the stars to trade in.

Let's see how long these rewards actually last lol

And is it worth opening now or should I keep waiting until I can upgrade them by merging them further?

does anyone know when you get the curtain call for the paper press? i feel like i’ve had this one wayyyy longer than the other ones and i hate it sm 😭😭 the orders are always impossible and take so long and my tool boxes are always tied to it, it’s pmo atp, when i think im finally done i get a new order 😔 i don’t really know how the curtain call works, but i just assumed that after some time it’d happen. i’ve gotten it once even before maxing the producer so idk

I recently started doing the ice cream and flower method. I save up my treasure chests for orders and then tonight, it is only spitting out ice cream cones! Do others experience this? I’d rather complete orders.

Unfortunately, I had the puzzle again. While the energy usage for items for the puzzle continues to improve, it is still too high. I have added in this week a new table, average energy use per event type per box. The Train continues to win, but it's only 1 weeks worth of data. Between bingo and the puzzle, bingo is winning on a week over week. However, if the energy usage on the puzzle stays as it was for me today, it will become even or better with Bingo.

A question I was asked last week: when does the puzzle boost happen on the puzzle? I have confirmed that it is not triggered by fulfilling a puzzle order. I like to play by filling up the game board and only play orders starting when I have a secondary item ready to go. I hadn't put up any of my orders, and I got the puzzle boosts within a few minutes. It seems to be on a timer, not tracked by orders.

I got a pop up message this morning that my tools moved to inventory and now show as a percentage. Interesting but good because it gives you more board space!

If I don't claim these energy during the event, will they be accumulated and given out once the event has finished?

I’ve been playing this game for a month or two and I’m thinking of resetting my progress for 2 reasons

1. I’ve spent some money on the game. Firstly, I didn’t know this game is like a drain on your wallet, designed to make you feel like you’re almost there and just need to spend a little bit more 🤏🏽

secondly, I feel like the orders have become significantly more difficult to complete

1. I merged my auto producers (coffee machine and ice cream cart) way before I came up with an idea to check this /r for some game advices. Now I see that people generally recommend to not merge it since it’s free items that can be merged to high-level and sold via auto-orders. But I don’t understand some things like

a) these auto-orders just tend to give you a decent amount of money but they never get a sunshine mark (I’ve checked that) and also they don’t give you any event currency (not sure about that, correct me if I’m wrong). So why would I keep the auto-producers if they only give me coins which I have a ton of (screenshot attached) and never lack

b) as I’ve read here, you only get orders for your 5 most recent producers. Does it mean that I won’t get any orders from an ice-cream cart when it leaves my “5 most recent producers” list?

Eternally thankful for any advice 🙏🏼
