FishVille Pearl Stash

Zynga has added a new collection feature to FishVille in the form of a Pearl Stash. This Pearl Stash event will have you collecting Pearls in the same way that you’ve collected items like mushrooms and crystals in the past, but here’s a quick rundown of the event, for those who are new to the game.

Each user has a Pearl Stash, which can be accessed by clicking on its icon in the top left corner of the gameplay area. Inside, you’ll be able to keep track of how many Pearls you have collected, and as you accumulate Pearls, you’ll unlock access to trade those Pearls in for a variety of items.

Items can be redeemed at the 3, 6, 10, 16, 20, and 30 Pearl Levels. According to Games.com, the 3 Pearl level unlocks a Spikey Shell. At 6 Pearls, you’ll unlock a Buried Vessel, at 10 an Eternal Sundial, at 16 a Giant Stone Ruins, at 20 a Merman Soldier statue and at 30 a Scissortail Sergeant Fish.

To earn Pearls, you can either send them to friends as free gifts via the free gifts page, in the hopes that they’ll return the favor, or you can enter the Pearl Stash and click on the “Ask for More” button, which will take you to a modified version of the free gifts page, where you can click on each friend that you’d like to send a request for help to. In this way, they’re receiving a request just as if you had sent them a free item, but in reality, the link they receive will be to send you a free Pearl instead.
