Companions don't seem to be working right

prettywoman0307

Recently the information button on the level start up screen that would tell you how many of what item is required to activate a companion no longer appeared. I am still able to choose a companion but once in the game it isn't clear in the game anymore either how many of the item is needed to activate companion. sometimes when I clear some of that item the progress bar moves and sometimes it doesn't move. So I never know if it is even worth it to select a companion for the level since what is required to activate seems random and inconsistent.

I'm on level 2609 if that makes a difference but it has been the last bunch of levels that it has been acting this way and maybe for a week or 2 now?

Hello @prettywoman0307 🤗 A Warm Welcome back to our lovely Farm King Community!

The companions do not seem to work for you because, the Farm Studio has changed this feature completely 😶

** Now, collecting a combo of “random” Cropsies itself will activate the companion;

** We must make the combo in T or L or I shape with 4 or more Cropsies;

** Making a combo of 3 Cropsies will not work anymore;

** We will have to spend same amount of Magic Beans now also;

** Because the companion will be activated with any Cropsies on the board, the screen at the “play” does not show which Cropsies to,collect;

** And, yes! You guessed it right! It is hard to make a combo of 4 or more Cropsies in a single level. So, it is basically a waste of selecting Companions to help us with our levels 😕

** When your companion was activated, you must have made a combo of 4 or more Cropsies.

Hope all these points answered your question and clarified the confusion! Please let me know if you need any further assistance.

Have a great weekend ahead 🐥🐥

I understand your thoughts and I agree too 😊

Unfortunately, it is a change that none of us like!! Our Farm In-charge is collecting our thoughts and feedback about this feature. Can you please post something there are share your honest opinion? I feel that the more vocal we will be, the Studio might think of changing it back!

Here is the thread (click on Green lettered link) --> "New" changed Companions match

It is not the same game without them. What is the purpose of all points collected when they can't be used. I may well stop playing this game, which is a shame
