If there could either be a week where the haunted house's cost was lowered a bit would be great! Otherwise, (And I totally understand if you guys are busy with finishing up making the festival) maybe a map? just so we know where we are going? Otherwise I will keep on chugging to get those gold coins ):)

A few players have already created their own maps that they've made available. You'd have to ask or search the forums for where they're at though.

here ya go, this is the one I use, and its really helpful ^.^

Can we have an option that allows us to give all of the trick or treaters at our door candy? I can't give 90 users candy 1 by 1.

Being perfectly honest.. I walked away from opening 8 candy bags from ToT way more satisfied than I walked away from playing a run of the Haunted House. It has never been as worthwhile to me as the Spring version (premium maze). Gives more prizes than Spring does, but all the prizes are dramatically watered down to make up for it which ends up giving you less than Spring would, anyway. (I know the HH now costs less than Spring does, but you can't put a price tag on fun, and right now i'm comparing HH's fun level to a -free-, feature, and it is still coming up short).

Ie: 8 Candy bags gave me a greater blood vial and a lesser.
HH run gave me: A lesser.

Value wise, what I got out of it, is cheaper than the cost of buying each item on the broker, yes. But excitement wise? I'm excited to open a candy bag because I might get a surprise. I.. have no reason to feel this excitement about the HH.

I know roughly the exact prizes I will be walking away with from an HH run, and that takes a lot of the fun out of playing it. I know my 'big haul' will be Prisma(s) if I make it to the final stage. They're the most common prize by far there. It isn't really exciting to effectively 'buy Prisma(s) but not know if i'm going to get any at all, or how many I will get, with little extras that are just gummy tails, 10 coins, spices, etc as a bonus. Because if I can statistically count on what I will basically get due to drop ratios, then it is more like playing 'Buy the Prisma(s), the Game.'

Okay thank you Krin!

Oh okay, Thank you so much!!! This will be really helpful ^^

I am sorry that you feel that way.

It is an RNG based game, so, yes, of course, the prizes will always be unpredictable. However, out of the games played so far, just for Stage 3 prizes...

The game has awarded 200 total of the Avatar Items, RTDs, Majestic/Premium Catalysts, Expedient Brew Agents, Trait Disruptors, and Perfumes

vs.

just over 500 of the Premium Vial Holders, Prismatic Philters, and Spectral Essences, which are the lesser prizes for the Stage.

With a minimum of 4 Torch uses per Stage 3, odds are you will walk away with 1-2 of the 'good' prizes and 2-3 of the 'lesser' prizes. With most of the 'good' prizes being either exclusive items to the game or items worth just under or well over the entrance fee - and excluding all prizes won in Stage 1 and Stage 2 plus the 'lesser' prizes from Stage 3 - I think the game is very well balanced for those who are interested in such features.

But of course, these features aren't everyone's cup of tea and that is why there are pleeeenty of other things to do in the Festival. Playing the Haunted House is by no means a requirement and the exclusive prizes from the game are all tradeable.

But I don't think it's fair to label it as "Buy the Prisma(s) the Game". Even so, if you were to get all 4 for Stage 3... which odds are you rarely should, that'd still be 240 Diamonds (320 w/o a sale) worth of prizes excluding Stage 1/2. But of course, the real draw are the exclusive Avatar Items and the chance of coming out with a lot more prizes than the entry fee - let alone, you can win said exclusive items w/o spending a single Diamond as you can play the game with either Gold or Chocolate Coins.

Kinda curious as to whether or not there'll be a coloring page, or if that'll be for Winter Fest.

Okay, I don't fully understand what requirements are needed to win a festive sylesti? Do you need to place 4th or higher, or just place in the 10th and up?

how do i get people to not trick or treat at my place
