@bakkart, after you repair the bridge you can buy a pack of 10 machetes for 85 food, which is fairly cheap. So indeed you will regret having them instead of more expensive gifts such as clay bricks or planks. Before you repair the bridge, you can only use machetes on the treasure island to cut your way towards banana palm, but it's not worth it if you are getting machete gifts instead if planks or clay bricks.

There are 8 parts to the halloween event, and you dont need koalas on your own island, as they are within the house. You need some wood, able to make planks, and some basic crops like radishes, and some wool, and lots of energy. but you have 12 days. many parts of the event are interconnected, and the order of the quests in your book is not the order in which you will likely do them.

@KeeperBvK, @xAllegrax, the Basement entrance is the 2nd pavilion, you need to decorate it like with the other two, then click on it and select 'Use'.

you can access the ghost house by going to festival island and clicking pavillon III, pavillon I and pavillon II in that order. Be aware that the event requires HUGE amounts of energy and lots of ressources with minor rewards. Events in this game are designed for bored high end players.

We should not be required to figure out that the goblin spaces can be walked over, ergo we should not click on them. Also, if the koalas are mandatory to finish the event, you basically locked out everyone who hasn't finished that quest line yet. You should probably change the title of the event to "Premium Members Only Halloween".

The Halloween event is broken. When you sweep away a crazy bush, it becomes a goblin. When you sweep away a goblin, it becomes a crazy bush. This occurs in an endless loop. And since the crazy bushes obstruct the path, this makes the rest of the event 100% impossible.

Just to clarify when ever I complete the 3/3 event on the crazy bush it goes to a 1/1 Goblin and then loops back to the bush. It never goes away

Does anyone know the reward for the Halloween island. There are an awful lot of steps but no indication of what you get at the end of it.

To all badge hunters: Play this game now. Once the community will inevitably shrink considerably, this game will take much, much more time to complete.

This game cries out for a rotate map function. Sometimes it is impossible to deal with things, which are behind a tree.

Private profiles block friends ingame. if you want to see friends, add them to your kongregate friend list and make sure your profile is public

Hi Oceania - it seems that my friends aren't being imported. Having no friends makes me sad :(. Any advice on how to fix it?
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
If you need any more friends for Oceania, just friend me on Kongregate, and I will friend you back. Oh, and I prefer to have clay bricks as the daily gift. Thanks.

@ATBu tbh I think this is their intention behind it. Since Kong was sold, it got worse permanently. That's usually the case when a company was sold and the new owner wants to get rid of it.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
@xAllgerax, because Kong devs are utter idiots and destroying the community by removing chats and forums wasn't enough for them. They must keep annoying the survivors with annoying discord bot widgets, sticky top bars that overlap the game windows, eye-hurting colours etc. Fortunately this game has fullscreen mode,but many others don't. @deliverything Thanks, but that only works until you reload the page.

By the way, for Firefox users who want to stop the top banner not scrolling off the top of the screen but don't know how: press F12 and it's the Inspector tab to the left. Find the line saying "sticky top-0 z-100" (it'll highlight the banner thing if you hover your mouse over it) and delete that line; it only stops the banner following as you scroll and leaves the version at the top of the page. I'm not sure how to do it in other browsers; for Chrome, you might need to use DevTools.
Also, I notice that, despite all the supposed improvements, comments still don't seem to support simple linebreaks. Guess I'll test a couple of possibilities here, just to be sure.[br][p]If that didn't work, this will look stupid.

@KeeperBvK: So, on top of the obvious problems with this unnecessary layout downgrade, some people get to have special bonus problems, for that personal touch! What fun! Totally worth changing the theme that worked for the last decade!
(I'd suggest just using the search feature, but that seems to have vanished as well.)
My own bonus problems seem to be the site now slowing Firefox, which it didn't before. Anyone else getting this too? Maybe we should make a bingo card.
Oh, just in case anyone on the Kongregate staff is reading this: that was sarcasm. I'd imagine that to be obvious, but so are many of the flaws with this new layout, and it was forced on us anyway. Could we at least have that "sticky top" thing made optional, so we don't have to manually disable it in the DOM and Style Inspector?

I'm glad I'm not the only one with these problems. I can only access the games I still have in my browser history. Nothing else works. Before that I had problems to get any game loaded for 1,5 weeks. It was pretty annoying. And now banners and description cover the games too and make it hard to play. Why all the changes?

@deliverything: It's not properly working for me. It shows some games I haven't played in a year, while omitting games thatI played this week.

@KeeperBvK: I can see recent games by hovering over "Games" at the top; they're the three games to the left of the playlist (uglier than the old way, though). But yes, the new theme is definitely worse. For example: didn't checking messages show the number of messages before, and open in a new tab? Now it just has a near-meaningless dot and opens in the same tab, so if you happen to click during a game, now you have to go back and reload the game (and probably have lost progress).

@aaaaaaa00000: I agree. There is not any even direct access to the "last played" page (requiring additional clicks now), and it's soooo slow.

Help. I'm stranded on a desert island with plenty of food, wood, animals, and tons of friends who drop by every day. The situation is dire.

Planting seeds on individual tiles is way more difficult than it should be, especially when you've already planted some things on adjacent tiles.

@cresswga: Adult ducks give lianas when fed. That's your best option. Als, if anybody wants to add me as a friend, please go ahead!
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
I have all but cleared my island of vegetation but I still need 80 lianas to make rope and straw for quests. What is the easiest way to get them? Just plant a whole load of thorns?
