What is the Magic Beanstalk?
A brand new type of event - Plant and grow the Magic Beanstalk to upgrade items and earn rewards!
How does it work?
During the event, you'll take 3 main actions:
1. Plant your beanstalk
- When the event starts, you'll see a prompt to pick a location to plant your beanstalk. If you hover over a section of map and see a white glow, you're free to plant there!
-
- If the map shows a red glow, the Magic Beanstalk cannot be planted in that spot.
-
2. Feed your beanstalk (add items)
- The event doesn't truly begin until you feed your beanstalk!
- Drag and drop items into slots on the beanstalk (you'll see a green '+' icon for every open slot). Once you're happy with your selections, tap Confirm. These items are now locked into the beanstalk.
-
- Once you've completed the full event, these items will be upgraded to the next tier in their merge chain, and thrown back onto your map!
-
- Notable item types that cannot be added to your beanstalk:
-
- Full Characters
- Chests
- Coins
- Rubies
- Mines
- Obstacles
- Ingredients
- Seasonal items
-
3. Grow your beanstalk
- Stages of growth - the Magic Beanstalk has 5 stages of growth. During each stage, tap the green Grow button to send energy to fill the growth bar (progress meter). Once the bar is full, you'll see a prompt to send a blue gnome to complete that stage of growth.
-
- Keep in mind - the event will not allow you to begin sending energy to complete the 1st stage of growth until you have added your items, and confirmed your selections.
-
- Adding energy - Every time you send energy to help fill the growth bar, you'll earn random items! After sending energy, tap the beanstalk and items will fly out onto your map.
- Completing each stage - Once the gnome has completed his task, you'll see the Magic Beanstalk grow and earn a star for the growth bar! At this time, rewards for that stage can also be redeemed from the event's reward meter.
- Completing the event - Once you've completed all 5 stages of growth, the Magic Beanstalk is complete, and you'll earn your final rewards & upgraded items!

FAQs
- Q. Growing your beanstalk - I planted, but the event isn't letting me send energy to my beanstalk. Why?
- A. Energy cannot be sent to begin growth until you have finished feeding your beanstalk (adding items). Once you've tapped Confirm, you'll see the option to send energy and grow your beanstalk.
- Q. Upgrading items - What happens if I don't fully complete the event? Do I lose the items I fed to my beanstalk?
- A. While items are only upgraded if you fully complete the event, you won't lose your items if the event is only partially completed. In this case, the items will simply be returned as they are, back to your map.
- Q. Planting the beanstalk - What if I try to plant the beanstalk on a part of the map that is covered with items?
- A. If you see items on the section of map you want to plant the beanstalk, keep in mind - any items currently in those spaces will automatically be added to the beanstalk (and will need to be manually removed, if you don't want them added).
- Q. Adding items - can any type of item be added to the beanstalk?
- A. Not every type of item, no. The list above gives several examples (though other random items may also not be accepted by the beanstalk).
- Q. Adding items - If I drag an item to the beanstalk by mistake, can I remove it?
- A. Yes! Items are not locked into the beanstalk until you choose Confirm at the bottom of the Feed The Beanstalk box.
- Q. Earning Rewards - can I still earn rewards if I complete most of the growth stages, but not all?
- A. Yes! Rewards are earned from the main reward track for every completed stage of growth.
