## Long Fall Timed Challenge

This special event is available to players from game level 11 and up. Players have **30 days** from the 4th of November to complete 3 special timed challenges in the Long Fall special event to win its unique rewards. This is the 23rd Timed Challenge to be added to the game.

**Important:** The amount of time available for the timed challenges is set and the countdown timer began as soon as the update was released. However, each of the 3 new challenge tasks in the special event is now divided into 5 stages that reward players with a prize for each stage of completion as an extra incentive and acknowledgment of progress made in the challenge.

**(1)** Reach 'Virtuoso' rank on the new Hidden Object Location Farm to win the 2 unique game event Avatars. Once won, these lovely new Avatars go directly into the Player's Avatar options and may be accessed by tapping on the current Avatar on the top left hand corner of the Darkwood Town Map.

**(2)** Complete all 36 special event quests to win the Gifts of the Field Chest and Fall Charm Casket. Once won, the Gifts of the Fields Chest goes directly to the Player's inventory and is found in the Chests tab of the Inventory Window. The Fall Charm Casket is a commemorative decoration for the desktop and can be found on the Casket tab of the Player's current desktop Casket Icon.

*This challenge is divided into 5 Stages, with a reward given at each stage of completion: Celestial Crystal at stage 1, Marble Chest at stage 2, Salad at stage 3, Wizard's Pendant at stage 4, and Cauldron at stage 5.*

**(3)** Collect 100 Sweet Cranberries by banishing the new event Monsters to win the Presents from the Fair Talisman and Fox Family Picture. The Presents from the Fair Talisman decreases energy consumption by 2 for 1 day. Once won, the new talisman goes directly to inventory and is found in the Talismans tab of the Inventory Window. The Park Inhabitants Picture is an image of the 3 new creatures of this update and is found by tapping on the desktop casket and choosing the Gallery tab.

*This challenge is divided into 5 Stages, with a reward given at each stage of completion: Medallion of Greatness at stage 1, Flying Time at stage 2, Cake at stage 3, Thunder Amulet at stage 4, and Gold Hummingbird at stage 5.*

**(4)** A Top 1000 Banishing Leaderboard. The top banishers in the event will win a gold, silver, or bronze medal stamp for their Monster Picture and a corresponding gold, silver, or bronze chest containing various goodies.

Completion of the overall Long Fall event by finishing all 3 challenge tasks (the 4th is just extra) will award the Player with the Fall Fairy Tale Medal. The new medal will go into the Player's Medals tab in the Casket Icon.

## Event Quests and Collection Items

The 36 new special event quests consist of 5 collection sequences of 6 quests each. The first 5 quests of each sequence are to find each of the 5 items belonging to one new collection added by the update. The 6th quest is to combine that collection.

Listed below are the 5 collections players must gather to complete the event's quests. *note a random artifact fixer is also awarded when a collection is combined for the first time.*

Once the special event is over, these collection items may be acquired by purchasing a special event chest from the Store.

## Event Creatures

The Fox Family are 3 new event creatures to banish: Shaggy Tail, Doughball, and the Sly Fox.

Banishing the event creatures will award the new Fixers required to combine the new Event Collections. Banish 100 and collect the Sweet Cranberries to complete the third stage of the timed challenge. Players may continue banishing the event creatures to achieve a high score and placement on the Top 100 Banishing Leaderboard.

## Completing the Timed Challenges

Keep in mind that the more you play the Location, the higher the Location Rank you will achieve for the Location, and the more access passes will be required for each play of that Location.

As a guide, in order to reach Virtuoso Rank on the Farm Location, and win the new Avatars, you will need to play the Location approximately **150 times**, which will require approximately **3,285** Enchanted Sunflower Access Passes!
