A lot of the gifts contain energy when you open them using the Eastern Stars - more than it initially looks like as well. The monster treasure cave chests often have apples or orange juice in, which I save for when I’m nowhere near either the daily energy allocations or a new level. For this event, each collection you complete will give you a booster, ranging from 35 to 280 energy units, plus time with energy recovery sped up. On completing the collection, not only do you get your shower of gifts, but the pagoda gets upgraded (more energy), you get energy from the completion of the collection, the pagoda will give you energy and there’s extra energy too when you click on the quests and scrolls, plus extra stars, then the gifts give energy and experience too.

I really missed the snowmen at first - I started playing in January so they arrived as soon as I’d hit the right level to access the event (about level 3 or 4?? After basic introductory stuff anyway), so I’ve had to adjust the way I play slightly.

I’d started a case from the book before the Chinese New Year event started, so I alternated the searches for that - which gained gold bars - with the palace. Completing that gave energy along the way and some nice boosts. The chests from the keys contain quite a bit of energy as well and I’ve only got the last one to go.

It has been more frustrating as the energy tariff and number of objects required to access the Palace is a lot higher than it was for the Crash site - 50 energy and 25 gold bars at rank 5 - and often I came away with only the keys, coins and experience, not even a single assembler. I found the crash site frustrating at first though.

It can’t have been too bad though as I completed the event quest yesterday to get the jade orb.

I’m also disabled and often awake and in a lot of pain so playing is a good distraction. I downloaded another game as well so I can switch between them when my energy needs recharging.
