Ravenwood Fair Facebook Guide 2: New cheats, tips, tricks and hints

Ravenwood Fair is a very popular Facebook game by LOLApps, Inc, which was developed with the help of legendary PC games developer John Romero, of Doom fame. Your goal in the game is to chop down the trees in the scary forest and build your own fair, in which you attract visitors by increasing the fun factor, and chase away scary monsters so that your visitors will feel safe, and spend money on your attractions. The depth put into this game has led it to increase in popularity at an explosive rate, now totaling 4.4 million users in just over a month and still growing fast. And like the rest of the players of this game, you might want to know some tips and tricks and cheats. So read on...

If you are fairly close to a level-up and have money to spend on a new game or a new building, don't buy it and level up just yet. First, go do all that you need to do that costs energy (chop trees, refill attractions, comfort visitors, etc). Then, after you use all of your energy, build what you need to build and gain your experience level. Once you gain the level, you end up with all of your energy back. This is a quick and easy way to refill your energy without spending any mushrooms or Facebook credits.

When a Domovoi appears, there is really no need to wallop him unless you're about to log offline. They do absolutely nothing, except slightly increase the frequency of scared visitors, and walloping them over and over uses up energy that would otherwise be spent chopping down trees or refilling various attractions. Don't smash them unless you absolutely need to. Only one Domovoi can appear at a time - you can never have two Domovoi. The developers updated the game though, so that each Domovoi only takes 1 energy to smash, thereby making it far less of an energy drain than before, when it took 2 to 4 energy to smash a Domovoi.

To exchange mushrooms for energy, go to the store and go to "Packs". There will be different energy packs that you can buy in exchange for mushrooms, allowing you to do more in the game without spending Facebook credits. Don't buy any packs if you are close to leveling up though - just build another attraction, or chop trees until you get enough experience points to level up.

Make sure to keep track of what buildings and games you need to complete. Take note of which ones you need to finish, and which ones were the most expensive to buy and will give you the most profit. Try to complete these ones first.

If you have a lot of energy, but you have nothing to do with it, first, you need to have protectors built (such as the Happy Oak). Go to the "move" tool and move it (or just put it back down in the same spot). Either way, it will need recharging. Recharge it all the way, and then repeat, and you'll earn more money, experience, and other items even if you run out of trees to clear.

In order to be able to de-thorn the dunk-a-bug, simply follow the quests that the Princess gives you. She will give you quests to de-thorn various items on the map, starting with the churro stand, and continuing to the thunderbox and then to the dunk-a-bug. Do the quests in the order that she gives them, and then you'll be able to de-thorn the dunk-a-bug. In the mean time, build your own dunk-a-bug to increase the fun factor and profit by a lot.

To figure out how much fun your park needs in order to get more visitors, put your mouse arrow over the "fun" column. When you do this, the amount of fun needed for the next visitor will pop up.

Even if you cut down all the trees in the forest, the trees will keep coming back, trying to "take back the forest" always giving you something to do with the energy you have. The more trees you have already cut away, the more trees come back in a shorter amount of time.
