The sanctuary

The wildlife sanctuary or simply sanctuary is a game area which mainly lets players collect experience points when feeding sanctuary animals in the town. It's similar to feeding pets in the farm.

It is unlocked at reputation level 3 and is located on the far right of the town.

It was introduced at 19 June 2017, along with sanctuary animals, puzzle piece and wheat bundle


Repairing the sanctuary

To access the sanctuary, players need to reach reputation level 3, have one strip of land touching the sanctuary (land #11 or #12 in map below) and repair the sanctuary book stand.

Repairing the book stand costs 10,000 coins and takes 4 hours (or 21 diamonds). Players get 11 experience points for repairing it.


Sanctuary visitors

Main article: Town Visitors

Some town visitors wish to see a particular animal at the end of their stay in a player's town. Players can see which one want to visit them in the town hall with a paw print symbol. Players can also see the type of animal the visitor wants to see by tapping "See Visitor". If players have the specified animal, the visitor will go and watch the animal for a short while, make a comment (shown briefly in a bubble above the visitor's head), then leave an extra gift next to the book stand. The gift can be diamonds, coins, vouchers, or any one of the supplies offered in the game. If players don't have the specified animal, they cannot be fully served and will not count towards some derby tasks. They will go to the Train Station after being served at service buildings and will not leave any rewards.

Only visitors brought in by the EGGspress train may wish to see the sanctuary.


Sanctuary animals

There are seven types of animals. Each type of animal comes in two styles and most also have a calf or baby version. One animal is randomly unlocked when repairing the book stand.

Animals roam around freely in your sanctuary. Making Wheat Bundle to feed all animals is optional, but you get Experience if you do it. You can only place feeds at animal houses.


Unlocking animals

Puzzle piece

In order to unlock any of the animals, players need to collect puzzle pieces, displayed and stored in the log book. Each animal picture requires 36 puzzle pieces to be complete.

When you have completed the first animal of a species, you need to purchase its animal house at shop, then the animal will arrive for free and immediately. Reindeer house can only be placed at the snowy area of sanctuary.

When you have completed the second animal or baby animals of a species, you need to upgrade its animal house, but luckily the upgrade is free and complete immediately. After that, the animal will arrive for free and immediately.


Getting puzzle pieces

Main article: Puzzle Piece

These puzzle pieces are obtainable through mystery boxes, special events, derbies, and by completing special boats marked with a puzzle piece.

Puzzle pieces go directly into the log book and do not occupy space in the barn, and the log book stays open to indicate one or more pieces have been added.

Which animal gets a puzzle piece is completely at random (i.e. the first maybe for the Grey Elephant and the second may be for the Brown Hippo); however, the first animal of each type must be unlocked before a puzzle piece is given for the second animal of that type. Baby animals are also unlocked after adult animals are.


Sanctuary decorations

Main article: Decorations/Sanctuary

Each unlocked animal also unlocks a pair of decorative items, as portrayed in their puzzles.
