Introduction
Frequently Asked Questions
List of Boxes

Getting Started

There are several important aspects to running a successful bakery: Cooking Food, Serving Food, Keeping Customers Happy, and Customizing your bakery.

Cooking Food
Cooking Food is super easy and super fun!
Step 1: find an empty oven and tap on it twice to open the cookbook.
Step 2: find the dish you would like to cook and tap on it to select it.
Step 3: prepare your dish by tapping on it to prepare or add the dish's various ingredients - once you have finished this step you will need to wait for your dish to finish cooking to continue.
Step 4: once your dish finishes cooking, tap on it again to add the final touches.
Step 5: tap on your dish a final time to move it to an available serving counter where it can be served to your guests.

Serving Food
Once your food is on a serving counter (as explained in the final step of Cooking Food), it will be served to customers automatically as they find empty seats in your bakery. If you don't have any available serving tables then you need to either a) buy more from the store, b) remove food from existing serving tables by tapping on it and choosing remove, or c) wait for your customers to eat all of the food off of one serving table.
Please note that identical food types will INITIALLY take up two serving counters, but if your serving counters are becoming full then your chef will combine your identical dishes to make room for new food.

Keeping Customers Happy
You can keep your customers happy by having empty seats for them to sit in and prepared food for them to eat. If there is no room for a customer to sit, then they will eventually become frustrated and leave the bakery. If there is no food for them to eat, then they will eventually become frustrated and leave the bakery. Make sure to have plenty of food and plenty of seats and tables waiting for potential customers - remember that happy customers will attract even more customers and that's just what you want!

Customizing Your Bakery
You can customize your bakery in any way that you like - it can be strictly functional with only tables, chairs, ovens, and serving counters, it can be purely decorative with no functional items, or it can be anywhere in between. To find items to place in your bakery, open the store by tapping on the hammer in the lower right corner of the main screen.
Once the store is open you can browse the various categories and choose items in each to purchase and place in your store. To purchase an item you can either tap on it and tap again at the location you'd like to place it or drag it to where you want to place it and tap again to confirm.

Collectibles Guide

https://33.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l...iET1qm7yoc.png

Currently, the Collectible feature is only available on iOS devices, but this guide can still be helpful for Android players to prepare you for this feature. Check below the jump for more details!

What is a Collectible?
Collectibles are items that you collect for performing various actions in the game. There is a random chance for a collectible to drop while performing certain actions.

Where can I view my Collectibles?
When you receive a Collectible, it is stored until you have all of the required Collectibles to redeem the reward. You can view your current Collectibles and other information by viewing your collection from the Main Menu > Collectibles sub-menu.

https://33.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l...Bp21qm7yoc.png

What is a Collection?
There are a number of Collections available for each game. Each Collection will require you to collect 4 specific Collectibles in order to redeem the reward. Each Collectible has a different drop-rate, which means some Collectibles are harder to obtain than others.

How do Mastery Levels work?
Each time you redeem a reward, you are mastering the Collection. If you keep redeeming the rewards, you will eventually gain a Mastery Level and receive different bonuses! Each Collection has 4 Mastery Levels.

What Collections are in Bakery Story?

Create A Storm8 ID

Before you can add neighbours (explained in the Neighbours section) you must first create a Storm8 ID. To create a Storm8 ID open the Social page from the Main Menu and tap the Invite Friends tab. If you already have a Storm8 ID it will be displayed at the top of the page. If you do not have a Storm8 ID, you will have to sign up for one. Remember that when choosing a Storm8 ID this is what you will give to other players if you want them to invite you as a neighbour, so be sure that you choose wisely.

Note: Your Storm8 ID and password are important for recovering your Storm8 games in case you lose your device or games.

Neighbours

You can become neighbours with your friends from other Storm8 Studios and Storm8 games or become neighbours with Community members you've met in Bakery Story. A neighbour is similar to a Community member but you can leave them tips 6 times each day instead of 3 and send them gifts.

To become neighbours you need to follow these easy steps:
1. Open the Social page from the Main Menu, tap the Invite Friends tab and signup for a Storm8 ID if you haven't already.
2. Tap the empty box next to the "Friend's Storm8 ID" text, enter your friend's Storm8 ID, and tap Invite.
You have now invited someone to be your neighbour. They won't show up as your neighbour until they Accept the Invite.

Likewise, other players can invite you to be their neighbour using your Storm8 ID (creating a Storm8 ID is explained in the Create A Storm8 ID section). To see if someone has invited you to become their neighbour, open the Social page and tap the Invite Friends tab. Neighbour Requests that you have received will be displayed and you can either Accept or Decline them.

You can add your ID and find others looking for neighbours in the Add Me forum. https://forums.storm8.com/forumdisplay.php?72-Add-Me

Gifts & Requests

Giving Gifts
To give a Gift to another player, you must first add them as a neighbour You can then send a Gift either directly through the Neighbours page by tapping the Gift button next to their name or by visiting a Neighbor's bakery and then tapping the Gift icon on the right side of the screen.

You can gift as many neighbours as you like but you can only send 1 gift to a neighbour a day. Once your neighbour has received 20 gifts, you will not be able to gift them until the next game day. Game resets at midnight California time. You can use this Time Zone Converter to figure out your local time. You can enter "San Francisco" for the S8 time zone.

Receiving Gifts
When a neighbour sends you a gift, a gift box icon will appear above the main menu icon on your main screen - the number next to this gift box is how many gifts you have waiting for you. Tap on the gift box to open it and accept or decline the gifts you've been sent. Accepted gifts will go to your Inventory and you'll be given an option to send a gift back to the Neighbour who sent you the original gift.

You can receive 20 gifts a day and you wont be able to receive more until the next game day. If you decline a gift, you can receive another when your neighbours send you.

Requests
You can send parts requests to ask your neighbours to help to build your appliances or task requests for their help during goals. You can send as many requests as you like per game day but your neighbours can only accept 20 of your requests. If you send more than 20 requests today, the remainder of your requests will carry to the next game day. Although there's no limit to how many requests you can send each day, take note not to jam up your request queue and cause a delay in the response time, especially during time sensitive goal period.

Frequently asked questions

Why Is My Food Spoiled?
Food that finishes cooking but isn't moved to the serving counter in time will eventually spoil. The amount of time it takes for a dish to spoil is approximately the amount of time it takes for that dish to cook, so if a dish takes 1 day to cook, once it finishes cooking you have approximately 1 more day to serve it before it spoils.

Why Doesn't Espresso or Some Dishes Appear On My Oven?
Ovens and drink mixers each make different types of dishes (for example, ovens can only make baked food). If you want to find different dishes, try to think about which of these appliances it would be cooked on and you should find it there.

Why Are Customers Leaving Angry?
Customers will leave angry for one of 4 reasons.
1. There are no prepared dishes for the customers to eat or drink.
2. There is not enough sitting room in your bakery (sitting room means an empty chair facing an empty table)..
3. The path to the empty chair is blocked by furniture or decorations.
4. The path to the Cash Register is blocked by furniture or decorations.

What is the Holiday Box?
Opening the Holiday Box gives you a chance to obtain items you can't find anywhere else! Tap "Design" in the home screen, then select the 8th tab (Expand).

How Do I Expand My Bakery?
Tap "Design" in the home screen, then select the 8th tab (Expand).

How Do I Move Items In My Bakery?
Items can be moved by opening the Design menu. Once you open the Design menu, tap on the item in your bakery that you would like to move to select it, then drag that item to the new location you would like to place it. Once you place the item in the new location, you will need to tap it again to confirm its new placement. If you try to place an item in a location that is already occupied by anotheer item, then the action will fail and it will return to its original location.

How Do I Find Items In Storage?
When you store an item, receive a gift, or receive a special item through the Magic Box, it is placed in the appropriate category inside of the Design menu. For example, if you store a table, it will be placed in the Tables category. To place it in your bakery again simply open that category and tap or drag the item into your bakery.
All stored items have a marker in the lower right corner along with a number signifying how many of that item you have stored.

How Do I Sell Items In My Bakery?
If you would like to sell an item in your bakery, open the Design menu and then tap on the item you want to sell. On the right side of the screen you will see three icons: the price tag icon (marked as Sell) allows you to sell items from your bakery for a small percentage of the initial cost of that item. Tap on this icon and you will be asked to confirm your decision - doing so will sell the item. Please remember that all decisions to sell items are final and that sold items cannot be recovered.

How can I get more gems?
You can get gems through the following:

• by purchase
• game download goals
• collecting from gem dispenser
• watch a video
• mastering recipes (upon completion of levels 2 and 4 of each recipe)

Buy gems
You can get more Gems by tapping the [Add] button next to the [Gems] icon at the top of the screen. Once you tap this [Add] button, you will be able to select from various Gem offers available for purchase.

Other games goals
You sometimes get goals to download and play other Storm8 games in your goal list. Download and play these games to be rewarded with gems.

When you get this game goal prompt in Bakery Story, do not install the new game immediately. You should check your other Storm8 games and see they get this prompt. This way, you will get the gem/gold rewards in your other games as well.

• Restart device

What can I do to try to resolve my game issues?

iOS General Issues
If your iOS device is having issues, make sure you've tried the following:

• Restart your device
• Delete and reinstall the game
• Hard restart - hold the power and home buttons, through the power off slider, until the Apple symbol appears.
  
  For newer devices (iPod Touch 4th Gen and newer, iPhone 3G and newer, all iPad versions [possibly other devices]) - close out background running apps. Double tap the home button, when the screen raises up, hold the app until it starts shaking. Press the red minus symbol to close.

Connection Issues

1. Force shut game
2. Disconnect device cellular/wifi setting
3. Switch off device
4. Power off modem and router, and power up after 2 mins if you're using wifi connection
5. Switch on device and reconnect cellular/wifi setting
6. Start game
   
   If you are using wifi, the bandwidth and number of devices connected to it are contributing factors to your connectivity performance.

Device Performance Issues
Some older devices may have trouble keeping up with the game.

• Check that you have sufficient space on your device. Try deleting some unused apps/photos/videos etc if you don't.
• Store away some (if not all) animated decorations in your bakery

Display/Graphics Issues

• Clear cache - go to Safari in Settings app on iOS device and click [Clear History and Website Data].
• Restart device and game
• Storing and retrieving the item or rotating the item
• Delete and reinstall game if the above doesn't work

Sync Issues
Ensure your connection is good. Always fresh start your game before you do any actions to avoid sync issues. It is recommended that we do not leave our games running in the background.

• If you discover that you have forgotten to close out your game, force shut it without doing any activity and start it again.
• You can force save your game progress by visiting another bakery.
• Do not leave your game immediately after your last action. Try to force save your game progress and sync with Storm8 servers before closing your game.

Gem Dispenser (removed)

The Gem Dispenser gives you 1 gem every 12 hours. Tap on it to collect your gem and the timer starts to count down and you can collect again in the next 12 hours. The gem stays at your Gem Dispenser and does not expire if you do not collect from it. However it does not accumulate any additional gems until it is collected. You should collect from it as close to every 12 hours as possible to get the most gems out of it.

You can collect gems permanently from it as long as you are using the supported software (iOS 1.7.6+). It is not support on Android. Please note that you will not see your Gem Dispenser on your Android device if you are playing on multiple platforms. You will be able to see it when you return to playing on your iOS device.

Mastering Recipes

You can earn the following rewards upon completion of each mastery level of all recipes. The recipes in all appliances generally give 1 gem for completion of mastery levels 2 and 4 respectively. However some appliances have recipes which reward you with 2 gems instead of 1. (e.g. Colonial Oven, Yogurt Chiller)


How Many Cooking Sessions To Master Each Recipe?

..Mastery Level	Servings	Rewards
1 (Apprentice)	8	2,000 coins, 20 xps
2 (Line Cook)	23	1 gem, 50 xps
3 (Sous Chef)	43	4,000 coins, 100 xps
4 (Pastry Chef)	83	1 gem, 200 xps

Why did my food suddenly disappear?
You may encounter a quick-sell of food if you block the door to your bakery. Refrain from blocking your door to avoid this.

If you want to avoid the quick-sell, don't block your door.

Echo Appliances

Echo appliances are a new type of appliances which allow players to purchase previously released locked appliances with their classic recipes unlocked, regardless of if you completed the original goal!

How do I get Echo appliances?
Echo appliances are offered regularly with in game sales and sometimes offered in other promotions, such as 5 day goals and crates.

What is the difference between Echo appliances and the regular version?
Echo appliances and regular appliances are sorted differently in the inventory, so make sure to check to make sure you don’t already have the original appliance before purchasing. This is so players who unlocked the original appliances from goals can still buy extras for the original price. Echo appliances also come pre-built. They have the same three recipes as the original appliance, except all the recipes are already unlocked and are visually the same.

Can I buy more Echo Appliances after the sale expires?
No, unlike goal appliances, you cannot purchase extra appliances after the timer expires.

When do Echo Appliances unlock?
Echo appliances unlock at Level 12.

“U-“ Items

“U-“ items are previously released goal items (tables, decorations, chairs, etc) that are now unlocked.

How do I get “U-“ decorations?
“U-“ items are offered regularly with in game sales and sometimes offered in other promotions, such as 5 day goals and crates.

What is the difference between “U-“ appliances and the regular version?
“U-“ items and regular items are sorted differently in the inventory, so make sure to check to make sure you don’t already have the original appliance before purchasing. This is so players who unlocked the original items from goals can still buy extras for the original price. Otherwise, they are exactly the same functionally and visually.

Can I buy more “U-“ Appliances after the sale expires?
No, unlike goal items, you cannot purchase extra items after the timer expires.

When do “U-“ Appliances unlock?
“U-“ items unlock at Level 12.
