FYI: Keep in mind that everyone is well aware of the issues going on in the game right now, that being said… the Event still has to go forward as it was scheduled months ago. That can’t be stopped. Hang in there, they are hard at work on the issues. In the meantime, here is the information for the New Phase.
Hey there Holly Jollies!
Looks like we are getting our next Phase a lil early. With Christmas just two days away, TinyCo decided to go ahead and offer up the goodies for us tonight.
RAID TO THE NORTH POLE ENDS THURSDAY, JANUARY 7TH @3PM PACIFIC
First up… requirements.
- 1.15.5 Update on device
- Escape From the North Pole Pt. 9 completed
- PETER HAS TO BE FREE!!! (If he is on a Raid, you will not have North by North Pole trigger)
For those waiting for Snake’s questline, mine triggered with the update. Will have more on that in another post.
There will ALWAYS be a timed item in Santa’s Headquarters at the end for 24hrs, so beware.
I will get the details finalized as fast as I can, but honestly right now my current condition is really in bad shape. I will try to keep up and do what I can tonight. The rest may have to wait. Please be patient while I pull the stats.

DO NOT USE IT TO GO TO SANTA’S HQ!! As again, ANY tap taking your there will trigger the actually 24hr timer. So BEWARE.

I can’t unlock District 4 and Santa’s Bakery. Every time I click on the district it crashes or freezes. I’ve seen a couple of different error messages at different times and once I actually saw dialect begin between Brian and someone but then it crashed. Haven’t gotten that far again now it just freezes after the initial splash screen that I’ve unlocked it.

I am missing Kevin Swansons tent! Has anyone else had this issue. I’m also having the same issue like everyone else. From not being able to get past some quest. When I send characters on tasks they end up in the vehicles that are taking down the villages. So I have to stop all vehicles from taking out buildings before sending characters an there tasks. I am not getting the correct amount of presents when trading in items. There are a lot of issues. If possible guys let me know if you’re having or had the same problem with the missing Tent. ( Kevin Swansons tent) I have checked everywhere and done all the suggestions tinyco said too

Do you know: How many clams does one get from this one day task if it is successful? Just a single clam…? Or more?
LikeLike
It is just one… and it is not ALWAYS on the drop.
LikeLike
I have always gotten one clam worth two credits from the beginning. Bunny is right that it is not an “always” drop. I run it every day and maybe get three drops (six clams) every two weeks, so about 12 clams a month. I had to rush tasks at the end and spent about 100 clams to do so just to get him, so he has paid for himself and now everything else is gravy. If you think you are in this game for the long haul and have the clams, I think he is worth it even at 350. Especially if his return to the game is because he is involved in the final week’s content (crossing fingers hoping he is right).
LikeLike
Yeah, I got him freemium but it was a struggle. Lots of interrupted sleep to collect and resend characters to defeat the Yeti. That yield sounds about right — always a single clam worth two credits for me. I may have gotten around 150 total with him over the year. If you view him as “premium” (which I guess he would be for people plunking down the 350 clams), he is one of the few characters that still has value after the event. If he is involved in the final content, that would be a nice thing and increase his value to the game (which is already higher than most event characters due to the clam task.).
LikeLike
Ok thanks guys that was very helpful. I will wait to see if he comes in handy for the final week and if so then I will go for him. 🙂

It is only one clam per drop for me, and it drops less than once per week for me. I’ve gotten like 25 clams tops from him in the past year. Daily player.

I could hug you, for the bit about Puppy Brian!! I didn’t know and I’m not taking 100 characters out of storage to see if any of them do anything helpful, since Lord knows, that would be a huge departure from every other event. 😛
I’m stuck on the Blocko Hovercraft battle area and I have lost all hope that TinyCo will do FA to help me 😦 At least knowing I can use Puppy Brian to possibly get wreaths to help level the Hovercraft up, means I actually stand a chance of using the area for its intended purpose again before the event actually ends!

I just checked on Herbert battling in the bakery and was surprised to see that Brian had joined him as a driver. I’m pretty sure I didn’t choose him, although it’s been a hectic day… He’s regular Brian, I’m nowhere near to getting his secret spy costume. Brian was freely roaming around the North Pole with nothing to do the last time I remember seeing him. Am I hallucinating? Having a blackout? Or is anybody else seeing this?
