Castleville Save Kris Kringle / Snow Fall / Holiday Quest Guide / Walkthrough

Seems like Castleville has its winter holiday quest up and gives us a gracious nine days to complete the 10-part “Save Kris Kringle” quest guide. Before you start the guide understand that this is a very costly quest chain and those who are progressing through the game normally might just want to skip it because it’ll set you back. Even the first starting quests use valuable resources like Wool Thread and Wool (which comes from sheep).

To save some time, you’ll need 30 Cotton later on in the quest chain and you’ll need to harvest 20 Flax for another part. Flax is a 30 minute craft, but you might not get to that part on the first day, so it might be a good idea to start off by planting some Cotton now to use later.

You’ll notice at bottom that there is “Kris Kringle’s Bag” which as you craft gifts will fill up. As it fills up you’ll be given rewards. Not every gift counts as one present in Kris’s bag. Some count as more, you can see as you look in the Gift Shoppe.

Snow Fall

  • Place the Landing Target so Kris Kringle knows where to… land.
    Hint: Find Landing Target in the Buildings section of your Inventory.
  • Click on the target to let Kris know you’re ready!
    Hint: The target is the big pile of snow with the bullseye on it.
  • Help Kris Kringle out of the snow!
    Hint: Click on the Landing Pad’s target to help Kris up.

Snow Fall is the easiest quest of the bunch, simply because all you need to do is open your inventory, place the landing target, and then click on it twice.

 Ode to Toy

  • Place the Gift Shoppe foundation from your Inventory.
    Hint: Find the Gift Shoppe in the Buildings section of your Inventory.
  • Build the Gift Shoppe. We need new presents!
    Requires 10 Wood / 10 Stone.

Easy enough, build the gift shop (its in your inventory) and then use 10 wood / stone to complete it. You’ll get a candy cane pole to go along with everything. Some say you need Holiday Wreaths for this, but! I didn’t need it, so you shouldn’t either.

Slipping Up

  • Craft 1 Holiday Slipper in your Gift Shoppe.
    Hint: Click on the Gift Shoppe to start crafting.
    Requires 5 Wool, 2 Wool Thread, and 1 Bell (you can ask neighbors).
  • Collect 1 Holiday Slipper from the Gift Shoppe once it is complete.
    Hint: Holiday Slippers take some time to craft. Click on the Gift Shoppe when they are complete.
  • Decorate your Kingdom for the Yulefest holiday. Have 3 Holiday Trio Candles.
    Hint: Buy from the Town tab of the Decor section of the Market.
    Costs 6,000 coins for all three X_X
This quest is a costly investment, but if you’re doing the holiday activities you’ll need to grind through these because if you don’t, you won’t be able to unlock later presents (which count more towards the Kris Kringle’s Bag). BE SURE to accept the quest BEFORE you craft the slippers!

 Sugar Rush

Rewards: Festive Wreath Lamp

  • Craft 1 tasty Fruit Cake from your Gift Shoppe.
    8 grapes, 10 wheat, 2 spices
  • Tend 1 Neighbors’ Kitchens to look for day-old pastries.
  • Hint: Click on Neighbors’ Kitchens to accelerate or collect items from them.
  • Have 3 Cookies to restore Kris Kringle’s strength.
    Hint: Ask Friends for Cookies.
If you’re going to finish this quest soon go ahead and plant 20 Flax for Sacked Out. You could also queue up two rope in the Workshop (you need to craft four BUT! there is a three workshop limit, so you should just craft two at a time). Don’t accept them until you accept Sacked Out obviously.

Sacked Out

  • Craft 5 presents in your Gift Shoppe.
    Hint: Click on the Gift Shoppe and pick 5 items to craft.
  • Harvest 20 Flax for making Rope.
    Hint: Place Farm Plots to grow crops.
  • Craft 4 Rope to stitch up Kringle’s Gift Bag.
    Hint: Craft Rope at the Workshop.
Will take at least five hours to complete, assuming you make nothing but slippers. As for the Flax, you can have it planted earlier. Rope takes 5 minutes, so you might just want to use only two Workshops and have the other working on something more important.

Cheer and Present Danger

  • Winter Gloom Thieves are trying to steal your presents! Banish 2 Winter Gloom Thieves.
    Hint: Click Winter Gloom Thieves to Clobber them.
  • Use 1 Super Clobber to banish those Thieves.
    Hint: Super Clobbers deal 4 damage to a Beastie with a single swing. Craft in the Workshop or buy from the Market.
  • Have 4 Unicorn Sparkle. It acts as a natural repellant to the Gloom!
    Hint: Ask Friends for Unicorn Sparkle.
You’ll need to buy a Super Clobber and use it on a thief and then defeat the rest. Might just let your friends tackle it and save energy if you’re waiting on Unicorn Sparkles.

Over River, Through Woods

  • Craft 5 presents from your Gift Shoppe.
    Hint: Click on the Gift Shoppe and pick 5 items to craft.
  • Spread some Yulefest cheer! Earn 10 Reputation.
    Hint: Visit Neighbors and do activities in their Kingdom to earn Reputation.
  • Tend 3 Neighbors’ Gift Shoppes.
    Hint: Click on Neighbors’ Gift Shoppes to accelerate or collect items from them.
You should be able to complete this step pretty easily. Again, craft five more presents. You’ll earn the 10 reputation as you visit your neighbors.

A Creature Is Stirring

  • Have 5 Blueprints to get ideas for new toys.
    Hint: Ask Friends for Blueprints.
  • Use 2 Hyper Craft to accelerate crafting.
    Hint: Buy or craft Hyper Craft, then use from your Inventory.
  • Craft 4 Wind-Up Beasties. Gloom not included.
    Hint: Craft in the Gift Shoppe.
Easy enough, make four beasties and use two hyper craft.

So Fluffy

    Hint: Harvest Cotton on Farm Plots.
  • Place 5 pretty flowers for inspiration.
    Hint: Buy in the Nature, Plants section of the Market.
  • Tend 10 flowers in Your Kingdom.
    Hint: Click flowers in Your Kingdom.
You can buy flowers to instantly tend them. Cotton is from the farms, you should have planted it earlier

Jingle Bell Ruckus

    Hint: Click Thieves to Clobber them.
  • Craft 10 Stuffed Unicorns. Awww!
    Hint: Craft in the Gift Shoppe.
  • Consume 5 Fruitcakes to keep up your stamina.
    Hint: Once crafted, use Fruitcakes from your Inventory’s Consumables section.
Last quest! You’ll have to craft five of the Fruitcakes to eat them, along with the 10 Stuffed Unicorns.
Well that’s this years Castleville Holiday Quest!
