I have looked and looked and looked – I can’t find Boris’ pick axe – any tips ??
You have to dig for it, I think
I LOVE the new Jumbleberry Fields prizes & can’t wait to collect them.
Do we have to have an active quest just to get the free daily digs at Adventure Park? I’ve logged in and went to Adventure park 2 days in a row and haven’t gotten any free digs. Maybe I’m misunderstanding how it works?
Hi friend! How much have you completed so far? Have you completed the 1st Step and received your Sparky’s Scavenger Hunt Adventure Pack? Once you drag it into your room, it will unlock the quest and then you will get your 10 free daily digs. Hope this helps!
So excited and happy to do a lot more in the adventure park!!! I love the prizes
Looks fun! Thank you! Also, yay for the code!:)
So many people are having serious problems with the adventure park I think I’m just going to wait a while to try this. I hope it gets fixed soon because I don’t want to get behind.
I don’t know if it’s just me, or are any other players having problems playing in Adventure Park? I “finished” Challenge #1. (Yes, I paid to skip the Twizzies game. Worth wasting my ePoints!) The problem is, I don’t think I got the prize that was shown for the Twizzies game. Do you not get the prize even if you use your ePoints? Of course, it could be in my dock, but I can’t find it. I REALLY wish prizes like this would go in the “New” prizes dock. It’s a real pain to have to scroll through lots of items in the dock to find what you just won/got/or need! Ready to start the second game, but need to know if we are to do the side quest that show up. Also, would you please consider letting us get more that one trail mix a day? I really wish we could get two or three each day. I do have extra trail mix on another account, but it’s a pain to send them back to my account that is playing the game. Ugh! :-/ (Still….it’s a fun challenge! :-)
Hi, I had the same problem with the tunneling game. In the Adventure Park, I was able to move onto the next quest, but I didn’t get the final prize. If you look at the top left in the Adventure Park, you can see what quests you have finished and the prize you got.
@dawnshome – Thank you for the info! I think if you already have the prize, like the Gem Treasure Chest in the Sparky’s Adventure, you can just drag and drop the item in order to finish that part of the Challenge. However, you don’t get an extra “prize”. I think that is what happened to me. I couldn’t finish Twizzies game, which I do NOT like playing, so I couldn’t win the “prize”, even though I used some of my precious ePoints to win the game. By this time, I am totally confused with this whole Challenge!!! Some things are not stated clearly. Getting only one Trail Mix a day is annoying. As far as the prizes go, I don’t care for the Adventure clothing. Just not my favorite clothing to collect. (Don’t really need or want multiples of the same hat, except for the number on the cap!) I’m sure this whole challenge makes perfect sense to the creators of the challenge, and all the really good computer game players, but not to me. I just started the 2nd adventure, and am already stressed with it and losing interest fast. But…I will muddle on and see what happens. I’m honestly happy that so many Webkinz Players are loving this challenge. If I had enough ePoints I would by-pass the entire challenge and be done with it! :-/
thanks for the awesome adventure for the summer! I’d love to see Ganz make available a lot of the items (for decorating) in WW. The colorful trees around the park and the flora underwater would be great to decorate our own rooms with! Thanks for the new podkinz! :)
I need some help, ASAP, with this summer’s mega challenge. On this account – charlestonian, and on my desertdreams account, I can get to the adventure park, which i can access anyway, having AP pets, but I cannot access the tasks. I end up in the middle of a quest in progress, and cannot access Sparky. The little white backpack is now gone, but Sparky has no glowing exclamation mark. What do I do ? That’s 2 acct.s I can barely get started on. Afraid to try my other 6 accounts. Please HELP !
I’m also finding that I cannot progress in the Adv.Park quest that I was on because there are no spots in which to dig, yet I have 8 objects to find, and 53 digs left. ?! Has something gone haywire with ALL my accounts Adv. Parks ?
Hi Charlestonian! If you are currently in the middle of playing a different quest, click on your Quest Log (the blue book icon with “!”, displayed at the top of your screen), then switch to Sparky’s Scavenger Hunt, then you should be good to go!
Thank you, Michael Webkinz! I needed that info, too! :-) Totally appreciate it! :-)
Thanks for letting us know, Michael. I figured it out myself the night before your reply…but it was after I’d spent 2000 eStore points to skip the Adv. Park quest, LOL!
@chalestonian – I’m having the same problem. I had purchased the Sparky Adventure several months ago and had already loaded it. (I actually forgot I had already started that adventure.) When I loaded the 1st adventure yesterday (on top of the same game I had already loaded months ago.) It took be back to Boris in the cave where you have to play the Twizzies game. (It is sooo hard to get that 2000pts!) I have 7 accounts and have decided to only do the Adventure Scouts Challenge on my two Deluxe accounts. Sadly, I do not have the time to sit at the computer all summer just to play this challenge. I don’t care about the hats. I do have, I think, plenty of Trail Mix on one or two of my other accounts that I can mail to the accounts that are playing the game. I may even use some of my eStore points to by pass some of the games, like Twizzies, that I don’t like playing. I’ll wait and see how that goes. There are soooo many really awesome events happening in June, but I’m having to pick which ones to play and which ones to walk away from. Having so many activities in one month can be a little over whelming. I would really love to have a whole month with no extra activities or massive Challenges! Just one month a year! Sometimes I really want to spend time just playing on Webkinz, not having to finish/win/spend KinzCash for the various challenges and activities. I enjoy designing, playing games in the Arcade, farming, selling items (as long as I don’t go over whatever that limit that gets you in trouble), and just checking all my many rooms! HOPEFULLY…the new updates in Webkinz Classic will address some of these issues. I really look forward to seeing all the changes! :-)
I absolutely agree with you – Webkinz is a whole other 8 hour job. It’s too much, between classic and next EVERY day of EVERY month there is something. I can’t even get a break to actually USE anything we win to create rooms etc. It’s too much in already overloaded unsortable dock. I realize Ganz employees need to do something to earn their wages but can we concentrate on collections/themes instead? Renaming items to start with the THEME name? All these ‘individual’ items are dock consuming, the challenges are time consuming and many are anxiety inducing. I actually, and am not kidding, having to create EXCEL sheets to keep track of everything that needs to be done. My next seasons are all set for each week of each season with all the most common tasks so I can keep them all straight along with the prizes so I know where something actually came from. (it’s actually kind of cool but TIME consuming). I’m too old for all this but I love the game. Ganz just needs to slow the heck down. We are NOT hurting for new things, let us actually enjoy the now old things. Please I’m sincerely begging.
Wait… you guys use the items that we receive to actually design rooms?!? I haven’t had time to really do that in a couple of years, and that used to be one of my favorite things to do in WW. My dock is bursting. I don’t have time to properly tidy it and put stuff away for a creative rainy day. I play less on Classic than I used to because my untidy, unorganized dock is basically unusable to find anything, and it creates undue stress, which is the opposite of what I am trying to achieve with my time in WW.
I am hoping the same thing. I am hoping that when the new browser version is out, maybe they will just spend some time with QOL, fixes, bugs, etc instead of the constant updates with challenges, collection events, clubhouse and park events and such. I really would appreciate a break every few months to actually play the game how I choose, instead of always having to do what the new challenges and events are. I know many people have 2 minute attention spans these days but I think most people still playing webkinz are not that type of person. We don’t need something new every minute to keep us playing the game.
I know that the standard reply would be that just because something is offered, doesn’t mean that we have to stress ourselves out doing it. But since everyone I know in WW is a competitive person, that’s not really an option, is it. LOL! If you offer it, we will play!
Hi @alucard. I would like to share a piece of advice for this summer challenge. Whichever pet you are using, please make sure that they ate a great breakfast and are completely full for whatever their day at Adventure Camp might bring. Trust me, it makes a big difference!
This is for everyone above – 1st, Thank you, Michael, for the speedy reply. I had forgotten that, it having been 10 yrs. or so since playing in Adv. PK. 2nd – I agree with EVERYTHING said by all my friends ! X 10 ! It’s DITTO DITTO DITTO. @alucard, I think we must be doppelgangers ! You always express EXACTLY what I’m thinking / feeling. You as well @kalcan8. I seldom participate in the challenges, and only went through level 2 of the summer mega challenge last year. I made a conscious decision yrs. ago to just enjoy playing the game, which is a big reason I joined, more than a decade ago. The games defeat me, now; and it is too stressful to spend so much time (!) stressing over a game to relax !? Though I agree with the assessment of WW players in general ! lol I am included ! By the way, I have noticed a lessening of major daily activities over the last few days. Grateful for that. Won’t even admit how many games of Bathtub Battles I am required to play, in order to win ! 0v0 LOL
@kalcan8 – Thank you for the advice of feeding my pet a great breakfast! I often forget to feed them until they “sigh” alot! LOL! I will do my best to be a better “Mama” to my pets! :-) Again, thanks for the advice! I really appreciate it! :-)
What a great Summer Challenge and opportunity for all players who may have missed out on Adventure Park’s quests. Also fun to repeat and win extras. Thanks.
Good luck on your adventure KarenaJ!
