[Community Event] Tropical Romance Island

Post by mockingbird288z »

We have to get fruit trees from the "Event Items" tab of the home store to unlock locations on the Tropical Romance Island:

The personal progress shows what you have unlocked so far on the island:

What we collect will go towards the community progress for more prizes:

As the community (everyone playing the game) collects fruit it will all be added to the community progress total to unlock more items.

Banana: 50300 (doesn't include the 50 needed for the boat)
Dragon Fruit: 18250
Pineapple: 12100
Passion Fruit: 3350
Constructo Coins: 335

The banana gives 500 every 4.5 hours, the Dragon Fruit 250, the Pineapple, 150, and the Passion Fruit 50.

The Construco Coin rewards in the personal progress total 90. The other 245 coins will have to come from using the Spin Flower or clearing the island.

The Quest told me to pick bananas, then after I did that it said to go build ship. When I get to the ship, It won't let me build it now. Did I miss something?

Try tapping on the icon in the upper left corner (that's where it is on my phone) that has two palm trees. That's what I had to do to get the game to recognize I had finished the requirements.

Have you reached the requirements yet? I kinda forgot how many, but it worked just fine for me.

I don't see any palm trees. Do you see them from the house after you pick bananas, or on the town map when trying to build the ship? I'm on a tablet and my upper left is the camera. I looked for Palm trees and don't see any.? Thanks. Should I keep collecting bananas? Lol.

The pop up in quest said I reached requirements. I'm at level 55, but only picked one group of bananas and then it said go build ship. Is that how you did it? Thanks.

The pineapples showed up out of nowhere. I am good now. Thank you! :)

It's like the RED Event from November 2014. I'm sure like that event once this one is over everything that is now SP will go back to being LP.
