| − | ==== There is More to the Story ====
| |
| − | The story of the Folklore Forest has been edited, updated, and embellished with many exciting new plot points, details, and even a brand new character!
| |
| − |
| |
| − | ==== A Foreboding Foreword ====
| |
| − | The serene soil of the Foreword Farm has been disrupted by a new and very lucrative type of plant: '''the Twisted Parable Papyrus Plant'''!
| |
| − | Twisted Parable Papyrus Plant
| |
| | | | |
| − | This new plant requires Crop Coins to plant but will yield even more Parable Papyrus when harvested! Open the "Manage Plots" popup in the Foreword Farm to see all the details of this valuable new plant.
| + | ==== The Great Winter Hunt is Coming to an End ==== |
| | + | Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating! |
| | | | |
| − | However, farmers should be warned that there is something... not quite right about these new plants. There is a warning in the Gnawnian Farmer's Almanac that planting too many of these in your field may attract a new and very dangerous kind of pest to your farm!
| + | After the relentless barrage of Hailstones from the brave hunters of Gnawnia, the Frost King's icy powers are waning and the Great Winter Taiga is beginning to thaw. |
| | | | |
| − | ==== A Tale to Tell for Treasure Hunters ====
| + | Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year. |
| − | The Cartographers throughout the Folklore Forest now sell two new scroll cases that lead to valuable treasure hidden in this storied region!

| − | This inexpensive scroll case will unveil a treasure map that takes you on a short trip through the Foreword Farm and Prologue Pond and will result in a chest that rewards several useful items including Draft Derby Curds. This map offers a unique opportunity to save an Encyclopedia run should you end up writing longer than you anticipated and have run out of Final Draft Derby cheese. You no longer need to give up on that lucky run, just do one of these maps and you'll be able to pick right up where you left off!

| |
| | | | |
| − | The Manage Plots popup in the Foreword Farm has been restyled to add more information while taking up less space and the plant selections have been reordered so that they appear in the same order on both Browser and Mobile.
| + | <div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em; font-size: 125%;">'''The Lunar New Year Event will begin on Tuesday, February 6, 2024!'''</div> |

| − | <div style="font-size: 115%>'''Brainstorm Chum Can Now be Scattered Without Cheese Armed''' </div></div>
| |
| − | Previously Brainstorm Chum could only be scattered if Grubbeen, Clamembert, or Stormy Clamembert Cheese was already armed. Now you can scatter your Brainstorm Chum with any cheese armed or even no cheese at all! The chum still only functions with the above-mentioned cheeses so you will now see a warning on the Heads-Up Display if you arm an incompatible cheese but you now can activate your Chum first and arm your cheese afterwards. Furthermore, if you do activate your Chum with an incompatible cheese such as Gouda or SUPER|brie+ and you accidentally take a hunt, you will '''NOT''' lose any Chum during that hunt and it will automatically deactivate itself afterwards.

| − | <div style="font-size: 115%>'''Loot Per Catch on the Pond HUD''' </div></div>
| |
| − | An indicator has been added to the Heads-Up Display in the Prologue Pond (on both Browser and Mobile) to show which item is currently being looted based on your cheese and chum state and the quantity range that you can earn per catch!

| |
| − | <div style="font-size: 115%>'''Mobile Camp Page Improvements''' </div></div>
| |
| − | The Mobile camp page has been made much more informative when hunting in the Foreword Farm and the Prologue Pond. While hunting in the Foreword Farm, the camp page now tells you which plant types are in each plot (via their thumbnail) and how many catches are remaining until your next plant finishes. While hunting in the Prologue Pond, the camp page now tells you whether Brainstorm Chum is currently being scattered (blue is inactive, magenta is scattered) as well as your quantity of Chum and the quantity of the item you're currently looting.

| |
| − | <div style="font-size: 115%>'''Choose What Happens to your Bait After Publishing''' </div></div>
| |
| − | In the Table of Contents, you can now choose what happens to your bait after publishing a book. You can choose between the default behaviour which is to automatically arm your standard bait of choice or you can choose to have your bait disarm completely. This way you can easily prevent valuable charms from being wasted after an Encyclopedia run ends by simply choosing to have your bait disarm automatically. Whenever you start writing a new book, you'll be presented with this option but you can also change it at any time directly from the Table of Contents Heads-Up Display.
