Welcome to mythical island, a new biome in Animal Cove that’s packed with fun surprises and all new activities to explore like Magical Gardens, Mythical Homes, and much more! Read on to learn more about all things Mythical Island. 

Mythical Island 

There are two ways to unlock Mythical Island, a brand new biome. Mythical Island is unlocked when you beat level 75 or when you rescue your first mythical baby animal, whichever comes first. When you unlock Mythical Island, you’ll trigger a special cutscene.

To access mythical island at any time, scroll down from the docks. 

Mythical Gardens 

Calling all green thumbs! Mythical Island is home to five all-new mythical garden plots. When you first enter Mythical Island, these plots are locked. You can tell which garden plots are locked from the giant padlock icon that floats above them. To unlock your plots, you’ll have to use keys.  

Simply tap on the golden padlock, then hit the unlock button at the bottom of this screen to unlock your plot with keys:

Luckily, you don’t need to have real life gardening skills to reap a fantastic harvest from these gardens! All you have to do is unlock the plots. Once you do, your garden will automatically start growing. Each mythical garden plot will always grow one common item and has a chance to add additional rare and epic items to your harvest. Each plot will grow different items than the plot you unlocked before it, so it’s worth it to unlock all 5 plots! 

Gardens grow on a timer system. Plots that are ready for harvest will have a checkmark icon instead of the stopwatch icon.

Magical Ovens 

You may have also noticed these strange contraptions while exploring Mythical Island: 

They’re platforms for Magical Ovens, and they’re the perfect way to make a tasty treat. Just like the magical garden plots, these Magical Ovens are initially locked. You can tell which Magical Overs are locked from the giant padlock icon that floats above them. To unlock your Magical Oven, you’ll have to use keys. 

Once you’ve unlocked your first Magical Oven, you can combine the items you’ve harvested from your magical garden into special new items, like the chocolate covered strawberry (created by combining… you guessed it, one chocolate and one strawberry). Items do not automatically combine when they enter your inventory; you’ll have to tap the Magical Oven, then the recipe you want to make to start the Magical Oven timer.  

Once you see the green checkmark floating over your timer, your newly combined item is ready to collect! Like with gardens, you can use coins to speed up that timer. Magical Ovens also have two upgrades that you can get with keys: one that allows you to speed up the Magical Oven timer and one that increases the chance that you’ll create 2 of your combined item instead of one! Just click the Upgrade button at the bottom of the Magical Oven menu to upgrade your Oven: 

Mythical Homes 

Mythical Island has five Mythical Runes that you can only unlock by unlocking Mythical Baby Animals. 

Each rune unlocks when its associated Mythical Baby Animal is rescued and delivered to the Mythical Island. When the Mythical Baby Animal is delivered, it will transform the rune into a fantastic habitat that’s perfect for its Baby Animal!

As soon as you unlock a Mythical Home’s Baby Animal, it will start producing a special rare item to help you complete the biggest reward on the Tasty Treats Menu (more on that later). Each station automatically produces one particular item, unlike the magical gardens. For example, when you rescue Twinkle Star, her mythical station will unlock and immediately begin generating Rainbow Sprinkles.  

Mythical Homes are on a timer system, just like mythical gardens and the Magical Ovens. Once the timer is completed, you’ll see a checkmark above the Mythical Station instead of the stopwatch icon. After you tap on the station to collect the items, the Mythical Station will automatically start generating its item again. 

Mythical Homes are upgraded by powering up your mythical baby animals and each upgrade reduces the time to harvest items from the Mythical Home by two hours. For example, if Twinkle Star has two star power in your game, you’ll be able to harvest items from her Mythical Home two hours faster.  

The Tasty Treats Menu 

These Mythical Baby Animals have a sweet tooth, and they need your help to satisfy them! As soon as you unlock Mythical Island, you’ll unlock the Tasty Treats Menu. Scroll over to Mythical Island and you’ll find the Tasty Treats Menu in the center of the Mythical Gardens. 

When you tap on the Tasty Treats Menu, it will bring up this menu, which has 3 tabs: Orders, Inventory, and the Mythical Island Shop. 

Menu 

The first tab is the Menu tab.  

This is the tab that opens whenever you tap on the Tasty Treats Menu, and it’s where you can find orders to complete. Each order has a series of items that you need to collect or create to turn in and receive the reward listed.  

If you have all the items needed to complete a job, simply tap the “Claim” button. When you do that it will deduct those items from your inventory and you will receive the job’s reward! If you don’t have the items needed to turn in a job, the “Claim” button will be grayed out until you collect the necessary items.

Ingredients 

To see what items you have and how many of them you have, tap the tab with the backpack icon to go to the second tab of the Tasty Treats Menu .  

This tab is your Inventory. The number below each ingredient icon indicates how many of each ingredient you have.  

The Mythical Island Shop 

When you complete a treat on the Tasty Treats Menu, you’ll receive Trident Coins. These coins are exclusive to mythical island and are used to unlock items in the Mythical Island Shop, which is the 3rd tab of the Tasty Treats Menu menu. 

This all new shop is where you use that/those exclusive Trident Coins. It’s packed with new island decorations, character outfits, and non-mythical baby animals that you can only get using Trident Coins. You’ll also be able to purchase Mythical Baby Animal Token Bags with Trident Coins!
