2013 Candy Kingdom Christmas Seasonal!!
The smell of Christmas trees, frosty air, and sweet treats mark a season of bright and joy! A celebration of sweetness welcomes Christmas this year!
Dr. Zoolittle is sharing your most favorites by welcoming you to his decadent Sugar Castle!
This mouth-watering adventure kicks off today as Dr. Zoolittle welcomes the sweetest animals in all the land! Read on to discover more about these tooth tingling festivities!
Similar to previous seasonal, there are two parts to this Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal. The first part is inviting guests to your Zoo. The second part – constructing the Sugar Castle buildable– will give you a free Ultra-Rare animal to stay in your Zoo when you complete it!
When you log into your Zoo, you’ll find a new friend waiting for you at the dock, ready to start the Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal. Click on the animal to bring up the Candy Kingdom Christmas menu.
From here, you can see what animal guests have been unlocked, choose an animal to help, collect items, and ask friends to help invite these Candy Kingdom Christmas guests to your Zoo!
The Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal has a story to tell! Each time you invite a new guest to your Zoo, you’ll unlock a new part of Dr. Zoo Little’s story. View the story panels you’ve unlocked so far by clicking the “View Story” button in the Candy Kingdom Christmas menu.
Have questions about how to complete the seasonal? Just click on the “How To” button in the Candy Kingdom Christmas Menu for an overview of how to complete the seasonal.
Every 3 days, new Candy Kingdom Christmas guests will be unlocked for you to help! There are a total of 7 guests in this Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal. As with past celebrations, you will need to help the first animal to get the second, and then help the second animal before getting the third, and so forth. New animals will unlock every three days, but you will need to invite the previous animal before preparing the next.
The Candy Kingdom Christmas guests will help you complete the Sugar Castle buildable to attract the special guest to your Zoo! Read more below to find out how to get this special Ultra-Rare guest to appear in your Zoo!
You will need to collect special items to invite these guests to your Zoo. These items are the Festive Ornament, Mint Holly Berries, Festive Bells, North Star, Santa’s Hat, Christmas Gnome, and Holiday Train. Each of these can be collected in different ways, and each animal requires a different number of each material.
Collect the 2 seasonal items, the Tree Cookie and Marzipan Penguin from correctly answering the Daily Quiz.
Collect the Holiday Hot Chocolate, Peppermint Pop, and Warm Egg Nog through gifting with friends or feed posts.
You can send your friends free Holiday Hot Chocolate, Peppermint Pop, and Warm Egg Nog from the Free Gifts page to help them prepare their own Candy Kingdom Christmas adventure, too! A player can send one request to a friend each day.
Collect the Tree Cookie and Marzipan Penguin by visiting your friends’ zoos.
Click on the boat dock in your friends’ zoos for a chance to collect a Tree Cookie or Marzipan Penguin.
There’s a greater chance of getting the Tree Cookie, but don’t get discouraged if you receive the Marzipan Penguin. It’s all part of the fun!
Once you have enough items, click on the “Complete” button to invite the guest into your Zoo. You no longer have to wait for 10 friends to help you invite guests into your Zoo. Congratulations, you’ve invited your first guest! Your Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal is well under way.
Are you short on a few items to invite to your Candy Kingdom Christmas adventure? Click on the dock to “check-in” every five minutes (and even earn XP)! For every 3 check-ins you complete, you will receive one free Candy Kingdom Christmas item of your choice!
If you decide not to upgrade right away, don’t worry! You can upgrade your Rare Candy Kingdom Christmas guests to Ultra-Rares at any time during the promotion by clicking on the animal in your Zoo. The pop-up will have a button that allows you to upgrade. Once the promotion ends, you will no longer be able to upgrade your Rares to Ultra-Rares.
Note: You will be able to feed, collect hearts from, and breed Candy Kingdom Christmas guests only AFTER the seasonal ends (i.e. when auto-trade begins).
Upgrading your Rares to Ultra-Rares has an additional advantage! As you’ll read below, your Candy Kingdom Christmas guests are busy at work making materials for you to complete your Sugar Castle buildable. Ultra-Rare Candy Kingdom Christmas guests make buildable materials 25% faster than their Rare counterparts! Instead of getting materials from the Popsicle Gazelle every 6 hours, your Ultra-Rare will give you one every 4 hours! Speed up your Candy Kingdom Christmas completion by upgrading your Rare guests to Ultra-Rares!
The first time you open the Candy Kingdom Christmas Menu, you will receive the Sugar Castle frame. An adventure like this isn’t complete with just guests; you’ll need something much more festive to attract the special guest! You’ll be asked to place the base in your Zoo after you close the menu.
Your Candy Kingdom Christmas guests bring more than just fun into your Zoo this time around! Each guest will make a special material that you need to complete the Sugar Castle buildable. It takes each guest a different amount of time to make their materials; you’ll notice that each animal has a timer letting you know how long until its item is ready to collect.
??? – Get from a guest to be revealed on 12/15!
??? – Get from a guest to be revealed on 12/18!
??? – Get from a guest to be revealed on 12/21!
??? – Get from a guest to be revealed on 12/24!
??? – Get from a guest to be revealed on 12/27!
When the animal is ready to be collected, the readied material will glow above its head. Click to accept the item. Invite all the guests into your Zoo to collect all the materials you need to complete your Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal. When the buildable is completed, the Candy Kingdom Christmas guest will appear!
Click on the Sugar Castle Frame to open the Candy Kingdom Christmas Menu.
Feeling impatient? You can buy buildable materials for WLP to speed up the completion of your Sugar Castle buildable!
Once you’ve finished putting together the Candy Kingdom Christmas animals, complete with the Sugar Castle buildable and all the guests properly invited, the special guest will be so impressed that it’ll choose your Zoo to reveal its secret identity. But that’s not the final surprise! The mystery guest is an extra-special Ultra Rare animal you get to keep in your Zoo forever as a souvenir when you complete Dr. Zoo Little’s 2013 Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal.
The 2013 Candy Kingdom Christmas seasonal will come to a close on Friday January 3rd, 2013 at 12pm PST. On this date, the campaign will end and the Auto-Trade begins. The Auto-Trade will last until January 6th.
