[GTMoney]

The latest Castle Story content update is here!

It's just been implemented, and may take a short time to appear on your devices. While you're waiting, check out some details:

New Content This Update:

- Over 40 new goals for both beginning and advanced players.
- A new character to rescue in the woods! Thurston the Knight has a tale to tell and a sacred quest to complete, but you'll have to help him out of his predicament first.
- Players of Level 15 or higher who fulfill certain conditions may encounter a new monster, the Glimmer Troll. And there are rumors of a Troll King...
- Dozens of new inventory items to collect and use in quests and crafting! Fill your pockets with Apple Pie, Gold Nuggets, Troll Horns and more!
- Two new unique buildings are available - Thurston's Fort, and the Troll Pit.
- Two new expansion plots are unlocked.
- The animals in the market have been updated with a selection of new appearances! Try out the Albino Pig, Black Sheep, Royal Cow, and more.
- Be the first to grow a beautiful orchard in your kingdom with the Apple Tree, Orange Tree and Lemon Tree.
- Rumor has it that Baron Pfeffernot is offering random item rewards in exchange for deliveries of his favorite foods. You could even win 10 Gems!
- A mysterious cow has been seen following Ivy around. There must be more to this story.
- Bacon, bacon, and more bacon!
- And introducing Sir Pigglesworth, the adorable item-finding pig!

Gameplay Balance & Bugs:

- The Observatory and Windmill now have animations.
- Requirements to expand to Ivy (the "Tree Lady") have been decreased significantly.
- Livestock loot tables have been made more unique. Different qualities of animals give different qualities of drops.
- Rewards from the adventure "Hunt Roaming Bandits" and "Explore The Dark Caves" have been improved to be more in line with adventure difficulty.
- A number of crafting recipes have had their ingredients adjusted and rebalanced.
- Many new premium items from this update have been added to Adventure loot tables. The higher level the adventure, the better the possible reward.
- Requirements have been reduced for the quest "The Builder's Caravan".
- Some lingering problems with triggers for the quest "Ivy's Hot Sauce" have been resolved.
- Several crafting recipes that had no in-game use have been removed from the Kitchen and Magic Forge. They will be reintroduced with new requirements in a future update.
- Monster spawn rate has been slightly reduced. Your Farmhouses are a little safer!
- Players should not be able to trigger scenes with Ivy in her human form before she's been rescued.

Yessssssss

Can't expand to Thurston. Keeps taking my money. S**** that it took my money and now let me.
To expand to the pit you need the Legendary Sword. Can't find it anywhere and there's no description saying it's a goal item
White, black and royal cows, orange, apple and lemon trees, albino, royal and black pigs, black sheep all grow into (null)s.

Looking good though

I had 5/15 Simple glue loaded for the Builders Caraven - When the requirement changed to 10, it now shows 1/10

I don't know about monsters being severely reduced...just got 3 in a row, which wasn't even from harvesting.

I'm pouting cause I got hit with the high requirements for the quests and completed them already. Will the excess materials I loaded into the builders caravan be returned? Or are they gone forever? I loaded more than 10 items per request on my iPad :/

[AkumaNeko]

I'm happy that there are new goals though

Out of all the new animals and trees added, only 1 didn't cost gems
