User blog:Mutant Peacock/The Invasion Before Christmas 2017/Christmas 2017 Event Review

I have decided to do another review on the current event now that it is nearly over. I will do the same thing as I done with my previous review post on the THOH and add what I think was good about the event and what was bad about the event and maybe include some improvements that this event could of had included.

Good Points this event offered

 * Only 2 acts were used for this event and it only lasted for 4 weeks instead of the usual 3 acts lasting 5-6 weeks.
 * 2 acts was also used in the Winter 2016 Event last year.
 * There were 8 new characters included in the update with 4 of them being freemium prizes and the other 4 of them being premium purchases.
 * There were 7 new costumes included in the update with 4 of them being freemium prizes and the other 3 being premium purchases.
 * There were 2 new facades included in the update with both of them being premium purchases.
 * There were 17 new buildings included in the update with 9 of them being freemium prizes including the 2 in the main questline and the other 8 being premium purchases.
 * There were 23 new decorations included in the update with 15 of them being freemium prizes and the other 8 being premium purchases.
 * A new tile was released with the update with it being a freemium prize.
 * A new feature was included with the Re-Gifting Machine that unlocked a mystery box to gain new prizes and required a separate currency to use per go instead of waiting 4 hour for it to cool down.
 * The prizes can be unlocked twice in each act, for example, a maximum of 2 Free Land Tokens can be unlocked from the Re-Gifter Mystery Box in each act.
 * Crafting prizes included 10 new items and 7 returning items with 2 of the new items being unique.

Bad Points this event offered

 * Most buildings that don't come with a character don't have any permanent character tasks outside of their quests.*
 * All new premium decorations from this update don't have any bonus payouts included with them.*
 * No characters or costumes had any tasks to earn event currency before/after the B.S. Battles in Act 2.
 * Ice tiles are only limited to 80 from the event with 40 per act.
 * There in no increase in the event currencies from Act 1 to 2 but extra currency can be obtained from the B.S. Battles in Act 2.

*This could change in a patch/store update anytime of when the event ends so if it does happen then I will remove the points.
