🏝 The day of the Islands economy update is getting closer!
👩💻 Our game designer Natalie is ready to share all the details of the changes.
Hello everyone! This is Natalie, game designer of SuperCity, and I have good news for you about changes on the Islands!
We regularly receive feedback from you about the difficulties you encounter in this location. And to be honest, we regularly notice them ourselves.
Everything takes a very long time. You are constantly short of Chefcoins, or spices, or fish, or literally everything.
And of course, we weren’t happy with that. Initially, we wanted to create a location that would be interesting to play for a long time. So we thought a lot about how to make the Islands more dynamic and interesting, while still keeping the challenge for you.
After the Islands were released, it became clear to us that one small change would not help the matter. As soon as you add a little something in one place, a deficit immediately appears in another place. Therefore, the issue had to be addressed on a large scale.
Before we started working, we decided to carefully study your comments so as not to miss any important issues. As a result, we identified several key points that should significantly simplify the game and allow you to enjoy cooking.
1. More Chefcoins
The efforts to popularize the Islands were not in vain! Their fame thundered throughout the area, and now wealthier residents and tourists are flocking there, ready to pay more Chefcoins for dishes, both in the Delivery Service and at the Festival.
- For example, minestrone will cost 18 Chefcoins instead of 9, berry panna cotta will cost 18 Chefcoins instead of 10, and grilled vegetable pizza will cost 63 Chefcoins instead of 28.
- The ferry, cable car and bridge will bring: 2, 5 and 35 Chefcoins, respectively.
2. Helicopter: more frequent flights, more useful rewards
The helicopter is an important source of resources for the Islands, and many of you had problems with it. We wanted to fix this, so we helped Amelia save up for a new helicopter!
- Loading the helicopter will be easier and it will fly more often. Now you will only have to wait 1 hour for the next helicopter!
- We have taken into account that there is always a demand for lawn mowers, saws and sickles, as well as Himalayan salt and basil on the Islands. Therefore, they will now always be included in the deliveries in greater quantities.
3. Affordable seafood on the Fish Market
The fishermen of the Islands join forces to ensure that you have no shortage of fish!
- Fishermen will hire assistants, so the products in empty trays will be updated after 30 minutes rather than 3 hours.
- Fishermen will ask for much less resources for their fish! There will be no more tasks for seasonal currency and superbucks. The overall difficulty of all tasks on the market will also be reduced.
Now your restaurants will definitely not have any shortages of fresh seafood!
4. Production buildings upgrades
The best engineers of SuperCity are working on modernizing the Watermill, Rustic Cheese Factory and Sauce Factory! Here’s what they got:
Level 2 | Level 3 | Level 4 | |
Watermill | Wheat flour: 3 pcs for 30 min |
Rice flour: 3 pcs for 4 h |
Wheat flour: 3 pcs for 15 min Rice flour: 3 pcs for 2 h Spice mix: 2 pcs for 3 h |
Rustic Cheese Factory | Mozzarella: 3 pcs for 1,5 h |
Parmesan: 3 pcs for 3 h |
Mozzarella: 3 pcs for 45 min Parmesan: 3 pcs for 1,5 h |
Sauce Factory | Pesto: 2 pcs for 1 h Mayonnaise: 2 pcs for 2 h |
Bisque: 2 pcs for 4 h Tom Yum: 2 pcs for 6 h |
Pesto: 2 pcs for 30 min Mayonnaise: 2 pcs for 1 h Bisque: 2 pcs for 2 h Tom Yum: 2 pcs for 3 h |
Additionally, the required amount of resources for the production of goods will remain unchanged regardless of the level of improvement of the building, and new recipes in the building window replace the previous ones.
5. Festival Shop updates its assortment
The owners of the Festival Shop also did not stand aside and made changes to their assortment.
- Items such as keys to the kitchen, secret ingredients, and gold monkey wrenches will appear on shelves more often.
- Also, many items will have an increased purchase limit during one festival.
We hope you enjoy these changes! We look forward to seeing you on the Islands!
I don’t get enough fish to fulfill all the fish recipes. Then I miss out on golden wrenches, etc. The last cooking festivals I played only 15 recipes of 100 were not fish related. I could only cook a very few of them.
