NOT REALLY PERTAINING TO WESTWARD 3 PER SAY…..butif you go to arcadetown.com and dl game….as long as you don’t close the game you will have it forever. if you must close….don;t restart your computer and you will still have 60 min of game time bt less times to play so be careful!!!!! that’s how i got westward for longer than 60 mins and didn;t hae to pay for it….as well as many other games. shhhhhhhh
sam-this is a treasure hunt in the 1st town build 3 farms with carrots and you will get a white rabbit take him over to the rabbit hole. If you go back to page 2 I think of the posts it will give exact directions on how to get the treasure. also I think on page 6 someone put a post that you can open/visit with a list of the quests
Can’t meet Willy cuz can’t build bridge, cuz sawmill not unlocked. i resuced all 5 lumberjacks in another town and built bridges there. So what do I do? I tried building new things for expereince but it didn’t help. I’m about out of supplies in my town. Please help!
I too can’t ge threw pumpkin-head gay!!!
I need help. I am in the quest where you have do like 3 men job. One is the kill the bandit which i complete. Than you need to kill the bear. I have kill so much bear i can’t find anything. What are you suppose to do? I also don’t understand the lumber one. You need to cut the biggest tree. Where is the biggest tree????
what you need to do is do any quest that may appear. im still trying to get the drill guy. but i keep failing because my gunslingers keep dying over and over again
I only need 2 votes. What do I do? There are no drunks in my town and when I create them the sheriff arrests them but I still dont get any votes. HELP!!!!
I can’t seem to find the bank vault in the drill for documents quest. Any hints?
candy- you need an employed tannery first, then kill the bears. the biggest tree is the one right by the bears. you need to blow it up or set up a logging camp and have someone cut it down
christy- make sure you have jake( last name not coming to me right now) as your mayor. you dont get the right amount of votes if he isnt
For the sunken treasure – I have used ANY well. Just drag your hero to the well. Sometimes you need to drag him/her away a little bit, but then just drag your hero to the well and in they will go.
Thank you Todd.
Several people have mentioned the horseman or the pumpkin head quest. I still need 7 votes and have not done this quest so I’m wondering if I need to. How do you get to the pumpkin/zombie/horseman quest?
I also had my smuggler leave b/c i didn’t get him something fast enough and he said he’s not coming back…does that mean i can’t finish this game or just not get the winery?
melissa- the smuggler would have given you the winery. you will still be able to finish the game
to get to the headless horseman quest you need to build a lamp post right out side of the tunnel just below the train tunnel in the northeastern part of your screen. it will say something about taking your hero into the cave. your hero will enter the quest then

I am stuck on Trading Post Challenge Level 4. Have tried it several times now and am always 8 gold short to build the 3rd granary needed to get 45 food. Am I missing some way to get extra gold? Have already picked up all resources & mined all gold without building mine etc. Can anyone help??
roz- build at least 1 panning mine when you first go into the challenge and one wood hut build 2 tents and employ 2 people at the panning mine and 2 at the wood hut and use your time on each quest until you get down to 20 seconds or less then click on the ! and give them what they want. Also you can build a grainery and a well just in case. But make sure you don’t take whatever they want down below what they want when you are building because you might run out of time to get the count back to where you need it to be. hope this helps.
I have a question.. Is there anyone with a list of walkthroughs for the trading post challenges I have gotten at far as challenge 4 but I can’t seem to beat that one I run out of materials on the last part of that challenge. GRRRR! If anyone can please help E-mail me @ [email protected].

I have just completed the Earthquake level. However, When Haris Pilton comes to town nothing happens, no question mark above his head or anything. The quest says complete but the level just keeps going with no signs of stopping. Am I missing something? Is this a bug? Anyone have a solution or have the same problem?
how do u get the ostrich last egg needed help please
shawnnae – here is a good guide that will help
In reference to my post #422, I saw someone else had the same question earlier in this forum…and this may help with others if they have a problem like this on a level other than just Earthquake Valley.
Turns out I had a “well” built in the spot where Haris Pilton was supposed to stop walking. Because of this he could not speak to me after the level was complete.
Luckily, I had saved the game right before I completed the level and he walked out. So I loaded that game and blew up the well so Haris could get to the spot he needed to.
He was then able to speak to me and I completed the level and the game took me back to town.
What an easy solution to such a frustrating problem!
hi. i seem to have a little problem collecting easter aggs. i can’t get one egg which is in the water, near the guy who said i needed to plant trees to stabilize the hills with the old-looking cabin, because i built the bridge right next to the egg. is there any way i can detroy my bridge? i tried dynamite but that doesnt seem to work.
any suggestions anyone?
Please help i got killed in ghost town and now it wont let me back in does anyone know what the problem is or do i need to do something?
for the people asking about the games my mom joined gamehouse u pay a 20.00 fee every month but you get to play every game the whole game its realy worth it and new games come out everyday.
Where is the key fr the treasure quest?
Candy post # 405. to get the bear skins you have to build and man a tannery. then the biggest tree is by the bear. I took some dynomite and blew it up. hope it helps
OK I have read all I can read. I need to know if anyone knows where the red flower is for the mans wife as a gift. If anyone knows please tell me. Thanks!

How to increase Experience?

I NEED HELP!!! For the past two days I have been trying different things in the Earthquake Valley Quest to get my population up to 20. I can only get it to 15. Any hints?
Chili Cook-Off – I have everything but the deer meat, and not a deer in sight!! I’ve been waiting for a very long time, and no deer show up. Anyone know why this might be?
thanks cindy. used your tip and finished all challenges no worries
Please help: My game will not load nor can I continue. I’m almost at the end. Was just finishing the cemetaries with Pumpkin head & only had to win the election. Seems that it stops running at the point where it says Please Wait.
Any ideas?
thanks!
Nicole..for the chili cook off, just kill some rabbits and sooner or later a deer will come to replace them
Nicole,
Have you tried closing the game right down? Then start the game upagain, BUT start at resume. If that doesn’t work, start again but RELOAD from the last one you saved. I have had several occurences of the game freezing, and it worked for me.
Hi Marion,
I can’t load any saved games or continue. I tried staring a new game and trying to reload any that I have saved. After it loads objects it freezes at please wait. I then have to shut it down and the program is not responding.
btw, the chili cookoff Nicole is another Nicole & not me. Good luck with your chili Nicole!
how do I rescue the last lumber jack I got all of them except the one by the gold mine right across from the first lady that you rescue please help me
How do you get water in the trading post challenge i have done it about 20 times and still cannot get any water ???
i’ve completed the game and am trying to collect all the trophies. all i have left are the sandbox ones and the fashion designer trophy. i have all the hats, but the fashion designer trophy will not appear. is there anything else you need to do to get the trophy?
trying to finish this game. I have finished all the tasks but can’t get to the last easter egg. How do you unlock the ostrich? I have both farms and ranches but the ostrich still won’t appear. TY for all your help.
#436 Corrie— You have to build a sheriffs office and hire a sheriff if you want population to go over 15.
chris #444- build wells for your water
Lee#445- drag differnent ppl over to the hat shop. they will buy a hat. once every hat is worn you get the fashion trophy
charlotte- for last easter egg check behind the rock in the pond in the upper right hand corner of the screen. if not there check behind the tree right behind the blue rock circle. easy way to see behind stuff is hold down your space bar and move your mouse, it rotates your camera
neenerwoman- what are you playing now since you beat this 100% ?
hey!can you tell me how can i move the drill?thx
todd–i bought and played the first one since i never did it before…but it’s hard to tell what i got or didn’t get since there are no trophies, etc, but i did it fairly carefully and checked out all i could. I certainly like 2 and 3 better. Also, making sure i beat the game (3) with all three characters as the lead I also just beat cooking dash but need expert on all levels yet…waiting till payday to find the next big thing…also, beat “get rich” or whatever it was but it’s sure a lot like build-a-lot but easier LOL
what are you playing??
strudel…blow up the rocks by the spot you need to drill and it will go on it’s own
