Do you think these houses will be available only during the event?

Tropical Romance Island Event - info, explanation

For this event we had to (or will have to in the future) collect a certain (huge) amount of fruit and Constructo Coins (resurected Construct-O-Coins from a previous event). The fruit we collected would go to our personal progress goal to unlock more fruit plants and locations on the Tropical Romance Island (to build) and the fruit would be added to the Community Progress to unlock limited time items. The fruit (banana, pineapple, dragon fruit, and passion fruit) and the Constructo Coins were the currency to buy and build the locations on the island.

We had to buy the fruit trees and plants from the event tab in the home store. There was a cap on how many plants we were able to place.

The Personal Progress menu kept track of how many fruit and Constructo coins we had and what we unlocked on the island so far.

The main way to get Constructo Coins was buy using the Coin Flower Patch to spin for them. A handful was earned by clearing the island and some were unlocked through the personal progress and community progress.

After the event all the fruit turned green and we can no longer do any action with the plants.

After the event these locations couldn't be unlocked any more. But if you did unlock them (but didn't build some yet) there was a 7 day grace period during which you could use any remaining fruit and Social Points to build any locations you had left.
