Ever thought about what wildlife is attracted by a certain garden set-up?

Some luck + Some knowledge + Patience + Friends + More luck = Fairyland Success!

So you’re new to Fairyland, and you’re wading through the advice, tips, tutorials, and so on.
Feeling a little overwhelmed? That’s okay! We all felt the same way, at the beginning.

With this site, you don’t have to play blindly though! It’s all here on ALFFLOVE!!
If you’re not yet a member of the Facebook group “ALFF,” and would like to join just click here.
You don’t have to be a certain level to join. The group is open to everyone!

This quick start guide to Fairyland is NOT meant to replace our amazing collection of guides and tutorials that you can find on our website. You'll need those if you don’t want to have to go back and replant things because you missed critters at Level 1, 2, and so on. This is simply here to give you a few helpful tips as you get started.

1. Collect your three hourly gold and gold from Facebook friends who play Fairyland,
as often as possible, by clicking on the Find Gold tab at the top of your garden.
Don’t forget that after you do this, you should also try reviving a wilting plant in
someone's garden by clicking on the “All Gardens” link at the top of your garden,
then click on the link "Find wilting gardens" to locate one.

Any garden with a 3 in its description has wilting plants.
Watering a wilter every time you collect your “three hourly gold” should get you some extra gold.
It might take 2 tries or so before you get the snail.

You also have the option of purchasing gold from Fairyland, which helps support the developer and his costs so he can come up
with new aspects of the game, as well as make donations to the Rainforest Conservation Cause on behalf of the players.

2. If you don't plan to buy gold, you'll want to add friends for Fairyland so you can collect the friend gold this feature provides,
as well as have more visitors. You can add people as you go, one at a time. But don't forget to add them wisely
and restrict their access to your information. Facebook has many guides on how to do this quickly and easily.
Adding strangers means opening up all of your personal info, as well as your posts, to anyone anywhere, so please check
your security settings before you do it!

If you choose not to add random friends for the game, collecting gold will be much more difficult unless you have a LOT of friends playing Fairyland since you are limited to just collecting your three hour gold, or unless you plan to buy gold,
which definitely has added benefits like the stardust. More Gold = More Fun!

3. Visit the ALFF Level Up Guide. It will help keep you from missing any wildlife along the way.
If you don’t take a little time on that page to do some planning, always keeping an eye on what wildlife have been coming and going, and so on, you will be revisiting that page at a later date to replant things in order to get the wildlife you missed.

4. Hunt the wildlife listed on step #3 while you are trying to attract them at the same time.
If you are on level one and trying to attract the Kiwi, go hunting for a Kiwi in someone else’s garden too!
This helps you reach Astral, Legendary, Legendary 2, etc. in a much more effective manner.

You can visit the ALFF Hunting Lists found here on this website.

5. Be sure to use ORGANIC food whenever possible, and advertise your garden on the main wall of ALFF,
the Fairyland Wildlife Tabs, AND in the Fairyland News section. You can NEVER advertise too much!

Never expect wildlife to just come to you.
You always have to go hunting for it with a plan, and a little luck never hurts!

Why is this "wildlife type" not coming to my garden?

There are a few reasons a particular type of wildlife may not be visiting your garden. Some of these things seem obvious, but I'm posting them because we have had people ask us for help, and we've run across every single one of these issues. Number 5 is one of the biggest problems for people.

1.Is your food the correct type?

If it's a veggie eating critter, do you have veggies out? I know that sounds silly, but oversights happen.

2. Do you really have the right plant to attract the critter you want?

I actually had someone ask us why they weren't attracting the armadillo. I checked their garden and they didn't have the appropriate cactus!

3. Is your plant in the right stage?

Some plants have to be RFH (Ready for harvest), but some have to be in the FG (Fully Grown) flowering stage.

4. Do you have any plants in your garden that might be deterring the critter?

For example, if you're trying to attract a badger, you have to have a RFH fruiting Luna Serena. BUT....you have to make sure you don't have a flowering or fruiting Solaris Igniflora. This is what deters them. This can get tricky when you have something in your garden that attracts several critters, so you have to really plan your garden out before you just start planting things willy-nilly. Look at what you want to attract. Once you know what you want, then figure out what plant you need. Once you figure that out, make sure you know what else that plant will attract. Once you have that info, figure out what deters the unwanted critters, but make sure it doesn’t also deter the desired critter!

5. Do you have too much going on in your garden?

Time after time we get asked why someone can’t attract a critter, and when we go to their garden, they’re attracting entirely too many critters. This is especially important to consider when attracting something that’s rare or very rare.
For example, if you want to attract a badger, you have to have a low table with veggies. Just make sure you don’t have other plants in your garden that attract veggie eating critters! Just think about it for a sec. If you have 10 kids that like brownies, and you have 5 brownies, what happens? There’s competition. Now if you have 1 kid that likes brownies, that same kid will come back for brownies more often! The same goes for critters. If you want that badger, get rid of all the other plants that are currently attracting veggie eaters!

Last but not least, if you are struggling with all the little intricacies of the game itself, check out the ALFF-in-Training Tutorial
to better understand the game tabs and what everything does. Here are a few more helpful tutorials when you need some advice:
