Stealing in Country Story
by admin on Feb.07, 2010, under Country Story
Stealing crops from friends is an important aspect of Country Story, it can benefit us in several ways, from helping us to complete quest to earning a few extra coins and Green Points.
When we visit our friends farms, we can use the ‘black glove’ icon to steal crops that are ready to be harvested.
We can only steal a certain amount of times per day from each friend, the number next to this shows how many we have left to steal (achieving different trophy levels for ‘crops and robbers’ affects this amount_
Each time we steal once successfully – we steal 2 crops from each farmer.
Each plot of crops can only be stolen from a maximum of 8 times, after this the farmer gets to keep whatever is left (so farmers are guaranteed the ‘expected crops number’ minus 16)/
1 Green Point is gained from stealing crops, but it takes 2 notches from our stamina bars.
Once we have stolen from somebody the maximum number of times for that day, we have to wait for the game reset at 12am GMT to be able to steal again.
Stealing can benefit us if we need a few extra coins to be able to afford something, if we need a few extra crops to complete quest or to gain a couple of extra green points to level up.
Weather Chart / Stamina and Green Points in Country Story
by admin on Feb.07, 2010, under Country Story
The round icon at the top left of the screen shows us the current weather conditions. This affects how dry our crops are, if it’s sunny the crops will need more watering and less if its cloudier etc.
The 8 yellow icons around the outside represent the time, one of these will light up roughly every seven seconds, so it takes an hour in all to go round.
Each time one lights up, our stamina bar is relenished by 5 points
Stamina Bar
The blue bar at the top is our stamina bar, this tells us our maximum stamina, and how much we have left to use. Stamina is depleted when we do actions around the farm, more or less everything uses stamina. From plowing and planting seeds, to harvesting and stealing.
It’s your job to maximize your use of stamina, in order to obtain maximum green points.
Stamina Usage
- Ploughing uses 7 stamina (until we get the throphy that decreases stamina usage).
- Planting seeds uses 2 stamina.
- Stealing uses 2 stamina per crop.
- Watering crops uses 1 stamina.
- Harvesting crops uses different amounts of stamina, depending on the crop.
Stamina is either replenished by eating food (different foods replenish different amounts) or simply by waiting, it’ll take approx 6 hours for your stamina to fully replenish itself from zero.
Green Points Bar
How to get Green Points ? Green points are obtained by doing activities around the farm and by completing certain request. They are required in order to reach higher levels.
As we level up by gaining more green points, we unlock the ability to buy more expensive crops and unlock more quests to complete.
Green Points given
- Ploughing land gives 8 green points
- Planting seeds gives 2 green points
- Stealing gives 1 green point
- Watering crops gives 1 green point
- Harvesting crops gives different amounts of green points, depending on what level you are at and which crop it’s you are harvesting.
You can use your stamina carefully in order to maximize the amount of green points you receive.
Country Story Friendship Points
by admin on Feb.07, 2010, under Country Story
Clicking on the friendship icon opens up the get farmer help screen. This feature enables us to become ‘closer’ to fellow farmers and in doing so, help each other out in several different ways.
Get Farm Helper Screen
This screen shows each of our friends. It shows the number of friendship points we have with that particular friend (85, 90, 95, etc) and also tells us the level of ‘closeness’ perfect being the highest level.
How are friendship points obtained ?
Everybody starts off with 75 friendship points with each of their friends. These can be increased or decreased depending on how you use them. You can increase your friendship points by 10 with a particular friend by sending them an item that is equivalent to 1000 gold coins. You can raise your points by a maximum of 10 per day, with each of your friends. Sending an item worth 100 coins will increase by 1 point.
What are friendship points used for ?
Friendship points are used to assign friends to look after your crops. Having a friend assign to your crops means that if you cannot harvest the crop on time, then the friend will do so instead. This may be useful if you need your crops for a quest, but are worried they may be stolen as you cannot be there to harvest them on time.
It cost 10 friendship points to have a friend look after 1 plot of crops for you, so each time you assign somebody, your points with that particular person will decrease by 10.
It’s important to note that the friend you assign to look after your crops doesn’t have to agree to this, nor do they have to do anything to look after your crops, it’s automatically done.
Having friends assigned to your crops is the only way of guaranteeing they won’t be stolen, but you lose your green points for harvesting.
Tip : Items that are worth 1000 coins
10 friendship points are gained by sending an item worth 1000 coins to a friend, items worth 1000 coins are several foods and decorations. It’s better to send an item worth 1000 or as close to 1000 as you can, rather than a food item worth 2660 coins, as the sender is not obliged to return it.
30 x sticks or stones also = 10 points
so this way would be the cheapest by far !
There are also quests throughout the game that require you to assign a certain amount of people to crops, or asking you to raise your points to certain amounts with friends.
Watering Can in Country Story
by admin on Feb.07, 2010, under Country Story
The watering can is used to water your own crops and those of your friends that you spot a little ‘dry’ when visiting.
You need to fill your watering can up at the well once it’s empty.
Here we can see there are several different levels of dryness to the ground.
This is because the land hasn’t been watered.
- the dark ones are moist
- the very light ones are dry
- the middle shade is in between
This images shows crops in various states.
The darker coloured ones will need to be watered once in order to become ‘normal’.
The lighter ones will need to ne waterd twice in order to become ‘normal’. Watering these just once will make them the same as the darker ones in this image.
1 Green Point will be given each time you water a crop that isn’t ‘normal’. You will get a point for each time you water a crop, if it needs two lots, you will get 2 points.
From looking at these images you should be able to see that there are four stages to the drying up of crops. You need to water your own crops and can also help out fellow farmers by watering their crops when necessary.
You won’t gain any green points for watering dry land without any plants or for watering crops that are already fully grown!

However, the majority of the quests given in the game will ask you to collect a number of crops or materials. It’s important to note that once you have completed these quest the items are taken away from your storage. They are not kept for the player to resell.
You don’t have to complete the quests as you receive them. You can complete them in your own time, whenever you choose to do so.

Facebook Dragon Wars Game Cheats
by admin on Jan.30, 2010, under Dragon Wars
Facebook Dragon Wars a great role-playing game set in ancient times. If you enjoy games with a medieval theme with dragons and knights this is the game for you.
In all of these games, the trick to success is to purchase as much property as you can to get a huge flood of money coming in hourly. In facebook Dragon Wars, it is easiest to buy the gear for the second or third job and perform those missions. You will move up the earliest levels easily, buy a dragon for protection, and do another mission or two.
This is not a cheat but hey, it might appear to others if you have a ton of money coming in on the lower levels. Play smart, purchase property, and get that income flowing in.
When you are done playing facebook Dragon Wars for the day and your energy is gone, buy some property rather than making a deposit to the bank.
In the early level, do not purchase enough equipment for your whole alliance, until your cash flow is at least two million an hour. The upkeep of equipment and the dragons will be expensive if you have a good-sized alliance. Play smart and without cheats and you will do well. Do not fight others until you have enough good equipment to do so, or you will spend lots of money healing and that is wasteful.
It is always a great idea to grow your mob free use the facebook Dragon Wars train, as it is to grow your cash. The quickest way to grow a huge alliance is to join a free train and it is here. This article is packed with free information about the game, but without getting a bigger alliance all, the money in the world will not help you.
Players might want to bookmark this page! Insert a URL or user name to the free facebook Dragon Wars train often to take advantage of it. Add your name in the comment section below and take the names of others who have left theirs before you. Jump on the free train and you will get more than enough to fill your alliance quickly once the train gets moving.
Keep in mind buy as much property as you can on the game Facebook Dragon Wars, purchase only enough equipment for missions until you hit 2 million an hour and leap on the free train. These are not cheats citizens. This is only smart playing and that is so much better then being barred
from any game. Have fun with the Facebook Dragon Wars game and leave out the cheats because being a cheater is lame.
