New content

• Added plowed terrain as a terrain option. This offers a way to plow land in automatic mode without having to choose any crop or herb.

Gameplay changes

• Herbs are now harvestable during a minimum of 2 seasons. There’s been a number of users that didn’t quite get how herbs work, and their limited window for harvesting (despite being the same as some trees) could cause confusion thinking it’s a bug. Increasing the harvest seasons should alleviate this issue without losing their identity.

Bugfixes

• Fixed Red Enchanted Sprinkler not being unlocked properly.
• Fixed resources shown on animal tiles when they’re ready for harvest not properly hidden with distance in specific cases.
• Fixed a few errors found from telemetry data.
• Improved experimental anticheat triggering false positives on players with high ping.

• You can now favorite recipes in house jobs.
• You can now customize Farmhands’ hat.
• Added 3 additional unlockable Land for a total of 9. Price and requirements for lands after the 6th do not increase as much.
• Recycling mushrooms in the mine now works in the same way as other items in the farm and house (enqueued instead of recycling them one by one).
• Pinned event errands are now shown in splitscreen.

Gameplay changes

• Decreased price of Fiery Horses from 10 to 4 medals. The difference will be reimbursed.

Bugfixes

• Fixed Manekineko having wrong colors in town.
• Fixed fluffy sign arrow not lighting up when it should.
• Fixed a tile in the Zen House belonging to the wrong room.

This event will be available for two weeks, featuring plenty of errands to fulfill, and lots of rewards to unlock.

Enchanted Voyage is a new event with lots of forest and mushroom-themed decorations to unlock, as well as a new set of magical horses!

As a reminder, the favor rewards after 70 Stars do not unlock anything and are not required for the “Complete all tasks of an Event” achievement. They’re just a small reward for people that keep their farm open to help others complete the event, or if they want to keep harvesting event stuff even after they’ve unlocked all items.

Have fun!
