Farmville 2, By George!

New "Great Britain" Content Added


With all the Fall and Thanksgiving content additions that have been added to Farmville 2 over the past 2-ish weeks, it was a bit surprising to see the pop-up screen to the left appear today. There's nothing particularly British about today's update, at least that I could find. It's not a Bank Holiday, as the Brits have the same good sense to schedule their official days off like we do in the US i.e. on Fridays and Mondays. In any event, there was actually a new limited-time, craft-able plant item introduced, as well as 3  limited time craft-able recipes. Truth be told, Zynga also introduced a limited-time, Farm Bucks-only Elderberry Tree, but I try to ignore Farm Bucks exclusive content in the same way I'd ignore poor manners, bad grammar, or Justin Bieber.

New Plant:

English Rose
  •  Good until December 23rd
  • 2 Hours to grow
  • 42/59 coins to plant/recieve
  • 3 XP
  • 5 Feed
  • Can be crafted to make Rose Jelly:
            • Requires: 8 Roses + 3 Sugars
            • Rewards: 1510 coins + 9 XP 

New Recipes:
  • Elderberry Tea
    • Good until Dec. 23rd
    • Requires Farm Bucks, so why bother with details? 
  • Petit Fours
    • Good until Dec. 23rd
      • Requires: 2 Blueberry Custards + 3 Batters
      • Rewards: 2710 coins + 27 XP

So there you have it - a proper English menu, at least according to a game made in the US of A.
