Discussions about Quests

[Ms. Pluot]

I have to confess, when I first saw the "quest" box, my first thought was, "Et tu, Farm Town?" I am getting heartily tired of quests on other apps. One big beg-a-thon, and I always tend to get snagged on some stupid thing that of course, I would have to have no life or buy _____-Cash to complete.

But I have to admit, I like FT quests.

I like that the steps use buildings you can buy with coins, or cash buildings you already have. It does NOT favor those with 300 neighbors (I don't have nearly as many), those who have enough cash to buy all the goodies, those on the highest or lowest levels (in some quests on other apps, those on higher levels can produce more goods, and those on lower levels can level up faster because theirs require fewer crops/items.) or most importantly, those who use cheat apps. I suppose you could use a cheat app, but what would be the point, exactly? That would be ridiculous. You don't have to beg neighbors over and over for items. That is so annoying!

Instructions are pretty simple, and you're given ample time. And also very importantly, these quests don't wind up overwhelming your playing time on the app. On other apps, it seems that's all I wind up doing!

You get on the game, do the steps you can, wait for those you can't. The only caveats ... watch your time, do the steps in order, and don't take on a quest you don't have time to finish. (I found that out the hard way the first time. )

Special prizes ... I'm mixed on that. If the quests do repeat, that wouldn't be bad. If for some reason, you have a game issue or real-life situation and you can't finish the quest, you might be able to get the item the second time around.

So after being rather hostile about this at first, I admit that I do like it. Good job!
