BOOM!! And we are off to another Grindfest of Marginal Excitement!! Act II Prizes are relatively repetitive, but a little better (as in a little) than act one.
As with Act I, the First Prize is actually serves a couple of purposes. First, it is another ride for Itchy and Scratchy Land. Second, it unlocks the Crafting area for Level 5 of Crafting…which coincidentally is mostly just a bunch of add-on parts for said ride. And Lastly…it will help you increase your bonus percentage when/if you place said ride within the Blue Bonus Area that is associated with the main gate.
And the said ride is???
The LOG RIDE! Woot! Woot!
This is another of the segmented rides that can be expanded to make it a “SUPER RIDE” or can simply be placed as is. But, then you’d have no reason to craft in Act II…and everyone wants to craft. Right? Maybe not so much…
It is a little like “winning” a table from IKEA. “NICE JOB! You WON! Now put it together!”
Connecting the Track Pieces is just like the Race Track. You have to Connect the Red Dots to make a solid connection, and get the animation to work. You will receive bonus % earning for every piece placed within the Blue Area of the Blue Bonus land that comes with the Main Gate. So make sure that all of your Log Ride Parts touch at last one square of the blue area.
Finally…we also receive a “Free Land Tile” which can be used to buy any of the land that is marked “Free Land” but also can be used to buy ANY regular piece of land. I am on the fence about wanting more ItchyScratchyKrustyLand (ISLand). So, I will likely use my Free Land Tile, to buy one of the more expensive remaining land chunks in another location on my main grid. At this point…the land mass for the amusement area is HUGE… enough is enough.
