Level 48
Level 48 is all about luck instead of skill. The level requires that you upgrade the Sorceress House to level 3, which requires a lot of crystal, but the only source of crystal is randomly generated altars. If you don't happen to get the crystal you need in time to finish the level in 3 stars, you are forced to replay. It doesn't matter how well you manage your time...you are at the mercy of the randomness. Not a great level!

I also noticed that almost no one has gotten the all levels at 3 stars even though you can easily get 3 stars on every level but this one. You need to correct this level so the achievement can actually be achieved!

Do you mean level 8, or did you mean 48? If you have not already, check out my guide for some tips. If you mean 8, I will go back and play it to see what I did.

OK, let me reinstall the game and check out level 8. I will let you know if I have anything to help you.

Thank you very much. I appreciate it.

Ok, I updated the guide with some General Tips that may help.

To start the level I went straight to the log, then the 2 food lying there. Hit the market to get wood then built the mill. Food will be very important since you have to trade 4 for wood and 4 for stone. Get a second worker and get the mill to level 2 as soon as you can.

Then I cleared the path up to the second market. You can get there without removal of the trolls obviously, as you need stone to build the Sorceress House. Once I had the Sorceress I removed the troll in front of the garden first so I could get that food flowing. I did not repair the small hole behind the garden to save resources.

Then I did the middle troll on the path to get to the 1 food and wood, and again did not repair that small hole. I am changing food into wood as I go so I can clear the last large bog. Clear the last troll when there is enough food to complete the level.

Before I uninstall the game again, is that the last level you needed assistance on? :yourFate:

LOL. Yea 48 is nuts. The dev could have hired a neighborhood kid with hard candy to QA playtest levels for consistancy. Still very good game, just not worth time to finish 100% gold :spazwinky:

Actually, in level 48 (and in 2-3 similar levels) you just need build the altars as soon as possible and don't let gremlins to steal crystals. You should be in time in the last seconds.

I have clocked the game with 3 gold stars on each game within the game, the downside i have found is i was not given all the achievement awards that was the to be got. after completing the game there was 4 achievement not given. good luck with the game you can complete each game within the game, just keep thinking & working it out that is the fun of the game, it can be done, i did it..... if u are after all the achievements, maybe get another game
