Tutorial

We've all been through the tutorial, but whether you're just getting started and would like a few more explanations or if you've been around for a while and forgot that was even a feature, here is the tutorial in its entirety.

## Getting Started

Welcome to the game!

Although you receive a warm welcome, you're immediately greeted by shadowsBut friends also greet youFriends give you a bit more information and then you're ready to go!Don't forget to confirm your email address

First, learn how to plant lampionsGo to your aqua gardenStart plantingYou've done it!Next, go to the breweryOpen the recipe bookBrew a potionSpeed up your potionThis takes so little energy because this is the tutorialYou've done it again!Now, defeat a monsterThis one is littleAnother victoryNow, clear your field of debrisThis one costs crystalsA few tips

* During the tutorial, a lot of costs are reduced, but they'll go up
* Planting and brewing brewery items are the most important parts of the game from which all other actions are based
* The more you plant and brew, the more game elements you'll unlock, so always keep your gardens full, and try to brew more often than not

## Lara's Quests

The quests get a little harder now

Now you learn to unlock your plantsUnlock them from the plant academy once you have all the needed suppliesYou've done it! You always receive 2 of the plant you've just unlocked as a rewardPlant your new lampionsNext, you get to collect some moon miceAlthough it starts at 10:20 mice to energy, as you level up, you'll be able to get more mice for energyNow that you have moon mice, speed up your plantsClick finish or speed upTime to try your luck at the wheel of fortuneyou get one free spin per daycollect some energy! Three energy appears on open areas once every 12 hours. Unlock more gardens to increase energy inputUse click and drag to harvest more plants at onceuse click and drag to plant more plants at onceA few tips

* Theoretically you can unlock plants and brewery items in any order, but you'll find that many rely on each other. You can always ask the gardener in the plant academy for recommendations if you're not sure what to unlock next.
* Moon mice are useful for speeding plants, but they're also necessary for a few other game features. You'll want to keep some around for clan events and for grafting gold plants, in particular.
* Each time you pay with water lilies to spin the wheel of fortune, you get a lottery ticket. Once each week (on Tuesdays at 8PM Central), one lucky winner will receive the lily jackpot. You can, of course, gamble all you wish, but your odds of gaining 1000 water lilies through the lottery are much lower than the odds of you accumulating 1000 water lilies over time if you don't spend them.

## Gardner's Quests

Click on the gardener icon to start any of these quests

The Gardner's first quest involves the volcano warden, which is covered in more detail in the volcano warden page. Later, he'll show you how to tend dragons, which is covered in the dragon cave page.

Quest one is to learn to use the Warden Portal/Volcano GuardianLearn how to check your rankingsLearn to tend dragonsGo to the Event SiteClick Cuddle to cheer him upEvery day you return to pet Cuddle, you get a bigger prize until day 7Talk to Lara nextShe will tell you a story in exchange for some plants (increasing numbers of lampions)the first story is about a dragon. You can return to re-read these stories for free any timeYou'll get a small reward for being such a good listenerAfter brewing a quick potion, it's time to meet questersThese guys show up every day asking for plants in exchange for energy, XP, or crystalsNext you'll go shoppingbuy a few plantsNow buy a treethere are a few to choose from, but during the tutorial, only one you can affordWhat a good deal!Plant your tree somewhere so it can grow and produce fruitIt's in your inventory in the tree tabPlant it like you would any other plantNext, unlock another plantAsk the gardner if you're not sure which to unlock nextto the market!List some lampions for saleclick to see which plants you can sellhighlighted plants are ready to sellJust pick the amount and the priceDrive off a few more monstersmake a dried herbIt works just like potionsOops, we can't afford this one :PA few more tips:

* It's very tempting to use water lilies and natural lights right away in the warden portal, but consider that they have other uses in the game, and you might regret spending them on things like unmerging (guilty)
* Dragons are essential because they bring you dragon flowers (which you need for higher level brewery items) and because they count toward your ancestor grove.
* Although the tutorial gives you 50 pears, you'll need 40 of those just for the first dragon, so if you feed both dragons at once, you'll quickly run out of fruits. This will make the dragons cry, but don't worry, they'll be fine. You can keep tending them with play, petting, and cleaning. Do go to the shop and purchase 20 pears for 150 crystals, a special price only available the first time you buy fruits from the shop.
* Cuddle's bonuses only stack if you login on consecutive days. The day resets at midnight Central US time.
* There are only 8 stories in Lara's book. Each one is more expensive to unlock, but you can come back to re-read them anytime.
* Quests will get more rewarding as you level up and gain tree points
* Plants in the shop are often cheaper than those on the market ... at least for the first batch or two. There doesn't seem to be a limit how many sets of 20 you can buy from the shop, but the price goes up 50% each time, so if the first cost is 40, the next cost will be 60, and the next 90 etc.
* The tutorial is the only time you'll be able to buy a fruit tree for crystals. They always cost water lilies (or real money) otherwise.
* The market can be a great way to earn a few extra crystals or get the last few plants you need for a quest. Depending on how many you need, it may be cheaper to get them from the shop tho ...

## Cuddle's Quests

Cuddle's quests might take more than a single day to complete. Depending on when you join the game, you may not be able to complete all these quests within 30 days, as one of the quests must be completed during the full moon event, which only occurs once a month. So you may have a flashing pink arrow on your screen for a while, but that's OK.

## Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Why didn't I get a login bonus?

A. There isn't a login bonus, but when you are below level 20 or so, you level up so quickly that what you thought was a login bonus is actually your level up bonus.

Q. What is that dinging noise that starts every time I go to the main island window?

A. When you get an achievement, you'll get a trophy or star. The game usually animates the star in the quest menu on the right side of the main island window to let you know you've accomplished an achievement, but sometimes it fails to animate. If this happens, you'll still hear the achievement notification each time you return to the main screen until you've clicked the star and discovered what you've accomplished.

Q. What if I used up the resources and can't complete quests?

A. The tutorial provides you with resources, including water lilies, energy, crystals, potions, herbs, powders, and anything else you need to be able to complete all the tutorial quests which require resources. You can, of course, spend these resources elsewhere, thereby not completing the quests. A common example is using the air potions to defeat monsters instead of leveling up your aqua garden, but it's easy to use these resources elsewhere. In general, this is fine, as everything you need is pretty easy to get in game. It might take a while to unlock the air mushroom so you can brew more air potions, for example, but you can do this from level one at no hazard other than time. The only exception is quests requiring the use of water lilies, as this resource is only gifted sparingly in game. Saving up 100 water lilies will take between 3-4 weeks if you rely only on petting Cuddle every day, but you might get prizes from your league ranking or other bonuses that can help you out. If you're looking to get through the tutorial quickly, you may have to purchase water lilies with real money.

Q. Do I have to complete the tutorial?

A. Technically, no. The only real impediment to failing to complete the tutorial is that your quest bar will be filled with Lara, the Gardener, and Cuddle, so there won't be room for shortcuts to events like the Garden Mastery Event or the Clan Event. You can access these events from the Event Site anyway, it's just a few more clicks. In most cases, you'll automatically complete the tutorial just by playing the game naturally. It's common to get stuck on a few quests, in particular, Cuddle quest 4.3: Finish the full moon event. This even takes place once a month, so if you fail the first time, you'll have to wait about 30 days before you can try again, during which time, the tutorial icons will still be taking up space in your quest bar.
