Ok, so for anyone who gets stuck like I did, I thought the stages were the parts of episode 1 and was selecting them to play instead of selecting episode one. Those are just additional quests to play, the episodes are they main game play.
Ok, I'm stuck, I can't figure out how to use power ups and the game has stopped dropping keys and support items, so how in the world can I power up to unlock the next level?
The game finally beat me at crazy quest - the fourth broken quest. I had 16 of everything, barns full and 2 of everything planted and that didn't satisfied the quest. I earned all the badges (although 6 are broken) so I'm done.
If you get past the eggplants you have a similar problem after the corn. You need to have 3-4 cows and about 25 milks before you collect your last corn. I forgot to get an exact count.
I got past the eggplants! Before you get your fifth chicken you have to have all 15 eggplants in your bag ad 4 or less eggplants planted. Then I got 4 sheep and 6 wools before planting my fifth eggplant. However, i suspect that you could get away with 2 sheep ad 4 wools as I had two wools left over. This will complete the eggplant and "wooly" quest at the same time and jump you past the glitch. If something doesn't work, don't go to sleep! Reload the page and try again.
