Are you building your Gingerbread House in FrontierVille, but are having difficulty accessing Treasure Isle, Mafia Wars, and CityVille through the in-game links in the Gingerbread House menu? You're not alone, as even the team here has had issues activating the exclusive FrontierVille missions in these three games - those missions that must be completed, as you'll recall, to complete the construction of the Gingerbread House in FrontierVille proper.
For a few moments, the links within the game will work, but then they will mysteriously, and randomly stop functioning, turning into a broken link that will lead you to an equally broken page when clicked. These links will work for a few minutes, or even a matter of hours, before breaking again (we've only gotten them to work twice in as many days), so to solve the issue for everyone, Zynga has released a set of universal links that all players can click on in order to activate the FrontierVille missions in CityVille, Treasure Isle, and Mafia Wars.
Here are the links, for your clicking pleasure:
CityVille Cross Promotion
Treasure Isle Cross Promotion
Mafia Wars Cross Promotion
And there you have it! A surefire way to skip the annoying in-game glitches found with this event, until Zynga can permanently fix them. Considering as its the holidays, we doubt they'll be in any hurry to do so, so use these links for now just to be safe.

FrontierVille St. Patrick's Day Celebration Goals: Everything you need to know
Along with the two new missions in FrontierVille that will have you hunting Leprechauns, the game has also seen the release of a five-part mission series called "St. Patrick's Day Celebration." The first goal in this mission set asks you to harvest both Cabbage and Potatoes, so if you tackle this mission along with the first mission of the Leprechaun goals, you can actually complete a bit of this quest in the same step, saving some time.
Tend 25 Cows
Harvest 30 Cabbage
Harvest 50 Potatoes
Luckily, these Cows really do only need to be tended; you don't have to sell them. As for the cabbage, it can be harvested after 16 hours, while the potatoes take just four. Remember, if you have a lot of neighbors that have yet to visit your land, you can simply ask them to come over and water these crops, as that will count as harvesting back in your own game, and it can save you a lot of time (especially with the cabbage). Completing this mission rewards you with 50 Food, 300 coins and 50 XP.
Part II of V will require you to actually sell some animals, so I hope you've been stocking up on adult goats.
Sell 30 Adult Goats
Chop Trees 100 times
Collect 15 Uilleanns
Uilleanns are the national bagpipe of Ireland, and you'll need to ask your friends to send you these items. Meanwhile, feel free to purchase some saplings from the store if you don't have grown trees on your land to chop down. For finishing this quest, you'll receive 5 Tools, 200 coins, and 200 XP.
Part III of V has you harvesting quite a few crops, but luckily they don't take very long to grow.
Tend 20 Wheat on Neighbors' Homesteads
Harvest 80 Clover
Have 3 Apple Cider
Clovers take only five minutes to grow, so hopefully, while you're waiting that short time to harvest your Clover, you can head over to four neighbor homesteads (at least) and help them with their Wheat. Apple Cider, meanwhile, is a part of the Apple Tree collection. As this isn't a frequently needed item in the game (but harvesting Apple Trees is) you'll likely have plenty of these on hand to spare. Finishing this quest gives you 175 XP and 500 coins.
Part IV of V has you collecting another type of collectible item, and this one should be just as easy to earn.
Have one Four Leaf Clover
Clear 2 Rocks
Collect 10 St. Patrick's Day Decorations
The Four Leaf Clover is part of the Clover Collection, so if you don't have one on hand before starting this mission series, you will likely earn one when you harvest the 80 Clover needed above. Meanwhile, you'll need to ask your friends to send you the St. Patrick's Day Decorations to finish this quest. Doing so will reward you with 100 XP and one Keg of Green Liquid, a themed decorative item.
Finally, Part V of V has you going back to the original purpose of these St. Patrick's Day goals - that being to introduce the Leprechaun "varmint" on your land.
Hire Four Neighbors
Visit 30 Neighbors
Chase 3 Leprechauns
If you don't have 30 neighbors on your account, simply wait another day until your visiting counter resets, and you should be able to finish this step with ease. Meanwhile, planting Clover is a quick way to bring out Leprechauns, as it can be harvested in just five minutes, and you may even receive all three Leprechauns in a single harvest, if you planted enough Clover at one time. Finishing this final mission rewards you with 300 XP, a Rainbow decorative item, and one Pot of Gold - an item that also happens to be the prize for turning in the new St. Patrick's Day collection.
And there you have it - a goal series that isn't as difficult as many of the others in the game, but should provide you with plenty of entertainment, even if it only comes in the end as you're chasing Leprechauns from your land (c'mon, I can't be the only one that finds it funny... am I?).
Check out the rest of our St. Patrick's Day 2011 coverage right here.
What do you think of these St. Patrick's Day goals in FrontierVille? Do you enjoy planting and harvesting this much clover, as opposed to other crops?

FrontierVille: Badges now available for catching Leprechauns
Along with today's release of the Leprechaun Hunting goals in FrontierVille, that see you, as the name suggests, catching Leprechauns (a new type of varmint in the game that appears when harvesting Clover, Cabbage, or Potatoes), there is also a new quarter of badges up for grabs for doing just that.
The first stage in this badge is called "Hearts Over Yellow Moons" and it requires you to catch just 3 Leprechauns. According to FrontierVille Legend, you'll receive 300 XP and 70 coins for earning this first badge.
The other three badges are listed as follows:
Orange Stars in Clover: 10 Leprechauns - Rewards 1,000 XP and 300 coins
Horseshoes for Diamonds: 25 Leprechauns - Rewards 2,500 XP and 3,700 coins
Red Balloons and a Pot of Gold: 50 Leprechauns - Rewards 5,000 XP and 7,337 coins
While that is an interesting coin reward for the final badge, I think we can all agree that the main reason for completing badges is for the massive XP prizes, and not the coins. Whatever the case, these badges don't have a time limit listed next to them, so you shouldn't have to worry about hunting that many leprechauns too quickly. We'll make sure to let you know if that changes in the future.
Check out the rest of our St. Patrick's Day coverage right here.
What do you think of the new Leprechaun "varmint?" Will these badges give you more incentive to plant the three crops that can bring them out, or will you actually avoid planting them to avoid receiving Leprechauns on your land?

FrontierVille Horse Corral: Everything you need to know
Are you ready to be able to ride your very own horse in FrontierVille? Even if the concept had never crossed your mind before, you'll soon be given the option of doing just that, as a new building, and a new set of horses is slowly being rolled out to users in a new update. The new building is called the Horse Corral, and it must be constructed before you can take advantage of this new feature.
The Horse Corral will be purchasable from the store for just 10 coins and 5 wood. This makes us think the building is incredibly important, if Zynga is practically giving it away (perhaps it will be used as part of another feature in the future?) so it's likely in your best interest to purchase and build one. The Corral needs to be whacked 30 times, with each time costing 7 Wood. Once the frame has been built, you'll need to go to work finishing the building's construction by collecting six different building materials: 10 each of Horse Salt Licks, Hay Nets, and Bags of Stone Grit which can all be asked for via general wall posts, and 15 each of Gate Hitches, Lunge Lines, and Fence Beams, which are earned through individual friend requests.
Once you've finished the entire Corral, you'll be able to purchase three different horses:
Mustang: 45 Horseshoes
Thoroughbred: 80 Horseshoes
Quarter Horse: 40,000 coins
You can name your horses, and your entire family can have their own horse to ride in the game. You'll be taught how to ride and dismount your horse, and as you ride them and complete actions around your Homestead, your horse itself will gain experience points and level up.
Remember, this feature is on a very slow rollout right now, so if you don't see a Horse Corral in your own game, please be patient as it will be coming around to you soon. Also, since the feature is so new, all of the intricate details aren't yet known, but we'll make sure to update you with all of the important information as soon as we know more. What we do know, however, is that there is apparently a five-part quest series to complete concerning the Horse Corral as well, so check out our full guide to those goals to learn what to expect.

FrontierVille Horse Corral Quests: Everything you need to know
While we've already brought you the news concerning the new Horse Corral building in FrontierVille, which will allow you to ride and eventually level up your own set of horses for your entire in-game family, you'll really know this update has come around to your game when a set of Horse Corral quests appears for you to complete. There are five Horse Corral quests in all, so let's jump right in, shall we?
The first quest will have you placing your new Horse Corral building on your land, so don't delay in doing so.
Place the Horse Corral
Hire Bess one time
Have 1,000 Wood
You'll unfortunately lose this wood when you complete the mission, so make sure you've created everything you need to for other missions before losing out on this large amount. Finishing this mission rewards you with 100 XP and 1 Hay Hook, which is part of the Barn Collection.
Part II of V requires you to have completed the entire construction process on the Horse Corral (check out our guide for all of the info on doing so), but luckily there are two other somewhat lengthy tasks that can occupy your time while waiting for the construction materials to arrive.
Customize the Horse Corral
Collect 15 Horse Beddings
Hire Five Neighbors
The Horse Bedding looks to be collected from a general wall post, but remember, this information is extremely premature at this point, and could change at any time. Finishing this quest gives you 125 XP and 5 Ribbon.
Part III of V has you helping out at your neighbors' homesteads, along with tending and harvesting some items on your own.
Clear 10 Neighbor Debris
Tend 80 Apple Trees
Harvest 65 Corn
Luckily, Corn takes 12 hours to grow, which gives you plenty of time to wait around for your Apple Trees to become ready to harvest every 30 minutes until you reach the 80 necessary in total. Finishing this third quest gives you 150 XP and 10 Cloth.
Part IV of V has you dealing more with the Horse Corral and Horses themselves, getting back to the main theme of the quest.
Place one Horse on your Homestead
Collect 15 Horse Blankets
Collect Daily Bonus from Horse Corral 2 Times
Horse Blankets look to be earned via individual requests sent to your neighbors. Meanwhile, it's unknown right now as to whether or not a Horse that you already have on your land will count for this task, or if you'll need to purchase a new one from the Horse Corral, but we can only expect it to be the latter. Finishing this quest gives you 200 XP and 1 Horse Grooming Brush.
Finally, Part V of V of these new Horse Corral missions sees you actually putting your Horses to work, by learning how to Mount and Dismount a Horse to ride around your land.
Mount a Horse
Dismount a Horse
Harvest 40 Peppermint Trees
Finishing this final Horse Corral mission will reward you with 300 XP and a Sugar Cube Treat, an item that can be given to your Horse, apparently rewarding some kind of bonus (we'll let you know what that means as we learn more).
All things considered, this mission set looks to be one that will last you a matter of a few days, even if not by choice (see the hiring friends task above). However, with our handy guide, you should be able to prepare as much as possible for when these quests do hit your land, which is all we can really ask for at this point.

FrontierVille Pet Shop Goals: Everything you need to know
Remember that old puppy you rescued and nursed back to health in FrontierVille? Well, good going, because he told all of his friends about you and now they all expect a home and food. If you associate Spring with all things cute (like myself), Zynga released a brand new building to the game in time for the season: The Pet Shop. Of course, a new series of five Goals is bundled in the content package, so join us behind the break to find out what lies ahead.
*Please keep in mind that you need to be at least Level 20 to begin these Goals. Sorry, newbies.
1. Heavy Petting
Place the Pet Shop on your Homestead
Tend 20 Geese on your Homestead
Hire 2 neighbors
Pet ShopThis first Goal will take some time if you don't have close to 20 Geese, which cost 300 coins a piece. The Pet Shop will cost a measly 100 coins and 20 Wood to place, but we're sure the expenses will come later. To hire your friends, just click on their portrait on the bottom half of the game screen and click "Hire." Follow the on screen instruction, and it's that simple. Finish this Goal for 200 XP and some Chunky Chow.
2. Tell Me About the Rabbits
Harvest 20 Wheat on your homestead
Harvest 20 Corn on your homestead
Collect 15 Flea Powders
This second mission in the series will take some time, for sure. The 20 Wheat will cost you 7,300 coins and take at least 24 hours to harvest, while the 20 Corn will run you 4,500 coins and take at least 12 hours to harvest. So, either way this Goal will take a whole day if you don't have any Boosts. This is fine considering you have to collect 15 Flea Powders by asking your friends through the Goal window. This Goal will reward you with 100 Food and one Goldfish.
3. Sick as a Dog
Have or Collect one Chicken Broth
Have or Construct one Comforter
Collect one Doghouse Daily Bonus
The Chicken Broth is part of the Chicken Collection, so this could take a while, if you're unlucky. The Comforter is crafted in the Chicken Coop using 15 Cloth and one Downy Feather, which can be found as a reward for completing the entire Chicken Coop Collection. So, sit tight on this one it's going to take a while. If you don't have a Doghouse already, you must build one and collect its Daily Bonus once to finish the Goal. Do this and enjoy one more Chunky Chow and a Lizard in Aquarium as your reward.
More Puppies!
4. Animal House
Clobber 2 Groundhogs
Clobber 2 Snakes
Collect 10 Marrow Bones
This Goal could easily be the toughest, especially considering how tough it can be to find Critters at times. Harvest lots of Potatoes for Groundhogs to appear more frequently. As for Snakes, just keep clearing that debris and eventually two will pop up. The 10 Marrow Bones are gifts that you must request from friends, which is something we're all familiar with. This Goal rewards players with 250 XP and a Dog Crate.
5.Puppies, Puppies, Puppies
Complete the Pet Shop
Purchase a new Puppy in the Pet Shop
Get the Puppy to follow you
Finally, it's time to complete the Pet Shop, which you can read all about right here. Then, it's time to buy your first Puppy from the Pet Shop and get it to follow. All of these tips are available in this post. Complete this Goal and receive 250 XP and a Bunny in a Hutch. Enjoy the herd of pets you've just tacked onto your family.
*Please keep in mind that you need to be at least Level 20 to begin these Goals. Sorry, newbies.

This Goal could easily be the toughest, especially considering how tough it can be to find Critters at times. Harvest lots of Potatoes for Groundhogs to appear more frequently. As for Snakes, just keep clearing that debris and eventually two will pop up. The 10 Marrow Bones are gifts that you must request from friends, which is something we're all familiar with. This Goal rewards players with 250 XP and a Dog Crate.

Purchase a new Puppy in the Pet Shop
Get the Puppy to follow you
Finally, it's time to complete the Pet Shop, which you can read all about right here. Then, it's time to buy your first Puppy from the Pet Shop and get it to follow. All of these tips are available in this post. Complete this Goal and receive 250 XP and a Bunny in a Hutch. Enjoy the herd of pets you've just tacked onto your family.
Building the FrontierVille Pet Shop: Everything you need to know
Who doesn't love puppies? No one, that's who. If you were hoping more was to come from that old Basset Hound in the Doghouse, you're in luck. Zynga has introduced the Pet Shop to FrontierVille, and there are three breeds to purchase and befriend. Sure, this sounds pretty awesome, but you need to build the thing first. Find out how after the break.
You'll unlock access to the Pet Shop upon taking on the first Goal in the series, which can be found right here. Placing it costs a mere 100 coins and 20 Wood. However, it will take nine Whacks at one Energy and seven Wood a piece to complete the building's foundation. After that, this building's menu will appear, demanding the following items:
15 Kennels
15 Dog Beds
10 Scratching Posts
10 Litter Boxes
10 Aquariums
1 Pet Crate
The 15 Kennels and Dog Beds are acquired by asking friends directly through the window menu, while the Scratching Posts, Litter Boxes and Aquariums are found through posting News Feeds about them through the same menu. However, you will not be able to complete the Pet Shop until completing the final Goal in the series, "Animal House." Find out how to complete that mission right here, and enjoy your flashy new Pet Shop.
Puppies in the future
At the moment, Puppies will simply follow you around the Homestead and rest in the Doghouse once purchased. However, Zynga plans to add plenty more functions to the little pups in due time. Here are all eight Puppies you can find in the Pet Shop, along with their astronomical prices:
Chocolate Lab: 60,000 Coins
Brown Husky: 100,000 Coins
Sable Collie: 100,000 Coins
Black Husky: 30 Horseshoes
Black Collie: 100,000 Coins
Black Lab: 18 Horseshoes
White Husky: 24 Horseshoes
Grey Collie: 30 Horseshoes
Yellow Lab: 100,000 Coins
Now that you've spent all time and money putting this thing together, I guess you have no choice but to drop another 60 thousand on a Puppy. Have fun making that up that loss. Hey, at least they're cute and will learn things later on--consider this an investment.

FrontierVille Swap Meet Goals: Everything you need to know
With the warm weather now hitting the majority of the country, it seems like the perfect time to hold a swap meet. Zynga apparently agrees, as they have launched a two-part goal series in FrontierVille called simply the "Swap Meet" goals. These goals deal with your in-game wishlist, and those of your friends'.
The first goal is called Prairie Swap Meet! and it asks you to complete three simple tasks.
Add Three Items to your Wishlist
Remove One Item from your Wishlist
Tend Five Neighbor Crops
For those that don't use the feature, you can add and remove items to/from the wishlist very easily by simply heading in to look at your Collections. Then just click on the small paper icon at the bottom left of each collectible to add that item to your wishlist. To remove, click on the red X below items currently on the list. Finishing this first goal gives you just 55 XP.
For goal two, you'll need to go back to the wishlist feature, but this time, send some items to your friends.
Send 2 Wishlist Items
Chop down 5 Pine Trees
Finish a collection
It doesn't appear to matter which collection you turn in, so long as you turn in a single collection in your own game. Also, there doesn't appear to be anything stating that the Pine Trees have to be fully grown, so we might get lucky with this one, but remember, with goals this new, things are subject to change at any time.
Finishing this second mission gives you 25 XP and 200 coins. As of right now, this is where the Swap Meet quest line ends. A pretty disappointing set, if you ask me, but I suppose they are easy to complete, so I can't really complain too much. We'll make sure to let you know if more quests in the Swap Meet line are released in the future, so keep checking back.
What do you think of these Swap Meet goals? Do you wish there were more goals to complete, or do you just not see the point of these goals altogether?

FrontierVille Building a Shower: Everything you need to know
With today's FrontierVille update, we've seen the launch of a new building and quest line dealing with a new character in the game - Lt. Flintlock (like the pistol). Lt. Flintlock apparently has taken a liking to Bess, and has decided to set up camp near our Homesteads. The troops are on their way to Fort Courage, but before they leave, they'd like to shower and get some rest, which is where you come in. You'll need to build the troops a shower, which is a new complete building project in the game.
While this feature is slowly rolling out to players, once you have it in your game, the Shower will be unlocked for users level 25 and above. It requires six new building ingredients to complete. Remember, this goes along with a new mission set as well, so don't scoff it off just yet. To build the Shower, you'll need to collect 10 each of Rusty Faucets, Bath Robes and Towel Racks (which are earned through general news feed posts), and 15 each of Pull Chains, Clay Reservoirs, and Privacy Cloths. These are earned via specific requests you'll send to each of your friends.
Once you build the Shower, you'll be able to give the soldiers a shower once every eight hours. You'll have a chance at receiving energy, water-themed animals, water well building parts, coins and experience points every time you collect the Daily Bonus from the Shower as well.
Once you've completed both the Shower building and the Shower Goals, you'll see the troops have packed back up and are ready to continue on to Fort Courage. Just as rapidly as they appeared, they disappear, and will be gone from your land the next time you load the game.
This likely won't be the last we see of Lt. Flintlock in FrontierVille, so hurry and complete this Shower to get on his good side. You probably wouldn't like him when he's angry.
Check out the rest of our FrontierVille Cheats & Tips right here.

FrontierVille Fort Courage / Shower Goals: Everything you need to know
Along with building a Shower for Lt. Flintlock in FrontierVille, you'll also need to complete a five-part set of goals detailing Fort Courage and the new Shower building. The first goal sees you simply placing a Shower on your land.
Harvest 30 Potatoes
Place the Shower
Craft 1 Sawhorse in the Barn
Sawhorses are crafted using five Planks and two Tools, with Planks themselves being a craft item from the Covered Wagon, which take 7 Wood and 250 coins each to make. Finishing this first goal gives you 100 coins, 250 XP, and one Care Package. Part II of V asks you to deal with some trees, along with a ton of Peppermint Bushes
Chop Trees 20 Times on your Homestead or a Neighbors'
Harvest 50 Peppermint
Collect 10 Soap Dishes
The Peppermint must be done on your own Homestead. Meanwhile, you can collect the Soap Dishes by posting a general news feed item asking all of your friends to help. Finishing this goal gives you 200 Coins, 25 Cloth and 300 XP.
Part III of V still doesn't require you to use your new Shower, but that's coming shortly.
Craft 3 Fancy Clothing in the General Store
Hire 5 Neighbors
Visit 15 Neighbors
Unfortunately, hiring neighbors will take you quite a long time, as you can only ever hire (at most) three at one time. Meanwhile, the Fancy Clothing are made from two Ribbon and two Clothes each, with the Clothes being another crafted item that's created inside the Cabin using 6 Cloth and 500 coins each. For completing this goal, you'll earn 500 coins, 350 XP and one Fast Hands Boost.
Moving on, Part IV of V actually requires you to use your new Shower, so make sure to check out our complete guide to building it.
Clean Soldiers 3 Times
Collect 15 Loofahs
Have or Collect 2 Downy Feathers
You can only clean soldiers once every eight hours. The Loofahs are earned via individual requests sent to friends, and finally, the Downy Feathers are the reward for completing either the Goose or Chicken Coop Collections. Finishing this mission gives you 750 coins, 500 XP, and one Equestrian Horse, a black iron horse decoration.
Finally, Part V of V sees Lt. Flintlock trying to woo Bess in the short time that he'll be on your Homestead.
Tend 20 Non-Rideable Horses on your Homestead or your Neighbors'
Collect 5 Daily Bonuses from the Barn
Harvest 40 Pink Roses
If you still have any of those Intuit Business Boosts, now would be the time to break them out, or you're looking at waiting four days to complete this single quest. Meanwhile, make sure to tend regular (old) Horses for this task, or your work won't count. For finishing off the Shower / Fort Courage mission set, you'll receive 1,000 XP, 1,000 coins and one Toy Solider decoration.
Just as quickly as they arrived on your Homestead, finishing this mission set will see them quickly moving on their way, leaving your Homestead the next time you refresh the game. The Shower can remain on your land, however, to allow you to continue collecting its daily bonus, which grants you everything from coins and experience points to some Water Well building ingredients, among other goodies. I suppose that being the case, we can't really complain if the soliders come and go so quickly.

FrontierVille Shower Collection offers Energy and Cloth as rewards
While the new Shower in FrontierVille may not seem like an ordinary building, it too falls under the general rule of thumb that every new item has its own collection. The new Shower Collection can be found by scrolling all the way to the end of the Collections menu. The five items therein can be earned by collecting the Daily Bonus from your Shower, once it has been completed on your land.
Here's what to keep an eye out for:
Dirty Water
Suds
Sponge on a Stick
Scrub Brush
Scented Soap
For turning in the Shower Collection, you'll receive a fairly average set of prizes: three Energy and five Cloth. Considering that you can earn both of these items simply by visiting friends, via the visiting neighbors daily bonuses, it doesn't give this collection much clout whatsoever. If I were you, I might save these collectible items just in case we need them in a quest down the line, as the rewards really won't help you that much.
What do you think? Is this one collection to ignore, or will you complete it just to say that you did?

FrontierVille: Find friends to be your hunter, doctor and carpenter on the Pioneer Trail
It seems that up until the official launch of the Pioneer Trail expansion in FrontierVille, Zynga is going to graciously offer us a new hint or bit of information about what to expect from this new feature. Today, we've learned that we'll need to gather a group of at least three friends for a crew so that we can take on the trail together.
Specifically, the clue states that "Everybody's got a job to do out on the Pioneer Trail! Yer hunter can shoot varmints fer meat, yer doc can find medicine to keep you healthy, and yer carpenter can scavenge parts to keep the wagon rollin'!"
While I'm sure I'm reading more into this than I should, wouldn't it be great if you and your three friends could actually play the game simultaneously and see each other's actions as you travel? While we haven't had any indication that this is in the works, it will likely end up being a more solo experience as with other game mechanics, where perhaps these friends will earn bonuses for sending us items, for instance, rather than actually being "forced" to take part actively. Still, this is an exciting new update, that only makes us even more anxious to hit the trail!
Check out the rest of our FrontierVille Cheats & Tips right here.
What do you think of today's clue about the upcoming Pioneer Trail? Do you think there will be any real-time interaction between players, or is this "team" more for show?
