That's ok! I'm happy to explain it. So this method only works if you have a gold/plat chest ready to open. It's slow but you'll get whatever item you want eventually. It's more reliable than the switch between two devices method and you don't need two devices. Essentially, you open the chest when you're not connected to the internet so you can keep deleting your local save file without affecting your saved game on FB/Google. It's slow because you have to redownload game content and wait through the intro.

You should link your game to Facebook to get a save file first! (Google's save should work?)

When your chest is ready and you haven't started up the game yet:
1. Turn off 3g/4g/what is letting you connect to the internet.
2. Turn on Wifi. (You will be repeatedly downloading lots of game data).
3. Start DMK.
4. Turn off Wifi.
5. Go back to DMK. You should still be in your park without having to load DMK again.
6. Open your chest.

If you didn't get the gloves
*7. Go to the DMK application settings. "Settings > Apps > Find DMK in the list and select it".
*8. "App info screen". Click "Clear Data".
9. Turn on Wifi.
10. Start DMK and go through the intro scenes. Connect to Facebook again as soon as possible.
11. Use the Facebook save!
12. Repeat 4-11 until you get the gloves.

*If you are using iOS or Windows or unable to do steps 7 and 8, you can uninstall DMK and reinstall it instead. Then continue with step 9.

If you got the gloves
13. Turn on Wifi and go back to DMK and play normally!

I think it should also work with purchasing a plat chest with gems if you don't already have one ready. I don't think you need to be connected to the internet to spend gems so it would cost at most 50 gems for one plat chest. I haven't tried this yet since I got the gloves but what could happen is that you're unable to buy the chest since you'd be offline. I suppose the worst that could happen is that you lose 50 gems if you don't close the game first before you connect to the internet again.

Thanks for the description. I might try that if I don't get the gloves soon. I have a few characters I'm working on right now that are getting all my attention, but soon I'll be looking to refocus on another character.

I'm telling you, if you have the time, the switch device thing works like a charm for dropping tokens also. It takes a while for me to get something from everyone, but it will save me a lot of time in the long run. I just started collecting for Donald on Wednesday and I'm at 8/12 already.

How does this work? Thanks.

First make sure the apps are completely closed out on both devices. I open the app on my phone, click on a character. If I get what I want, I close it out completely and reset the app which saves my progress and keep that going. If I don't get what I want, I close it out and then open it up on my ipad (again, make sure it's not running in the background or anything before you open it). Then it's as if I never clicked the character. I try again, and if I get what I want I close it to save it and then reopen it on the ipad and continue that way. If I don't, I close it out completely, make sure it's closed completely on my phone, and then open it on my phone again. Repeat!

I'm SO MAD I deleted the game bc it wasn't loading on my phone and then reinstalled it and I connected to fb again and it didn't reload my data! I was irritated about the gloves but I guess I'm done now :/ if I can't get my data back I'm just gonna give up

bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze, bronze & bronze

Haven't bothered opening a chest in a week and a half.

Ugh. I am scared to delete mine for that reason. I hope you can get your data back. That happened to me on another game (and I didn't even delete it) and it's sad.

Morning everyone,

I've been playing Magic Kingdoms since the middle of the Incredibles event, so around the beginning of July. I have saved up most of my gems and everything and was wondering how I should spend them? There hasn't really been a list gathered from the earlier points in the game. Everyone seems to concur that unlocking an extra parade spot and parade floats was a good investment to see dividends of gems over the long term.
Also, I've bought Pluto and Pluto's House - he has been consistently helpful throughout the entire time I've had him!
Now, at this point in my game, I'm just coming up to where I am about to Welcome Roz, Eve, and Pete. I see there are a few different attractions and/or floats that may help me along with Welcoming these characters; however, how do you choose?
I have a total of 3 parade spots running, I have the Mickey, Toy Story, Wall-E, and Sleeping Beauty Floats.
I was looking at getting RC Racers because it seems to give me items for multiple characters (and I can afford it at this point, with 133 gems)
OR I could continue saving for a Character; such as, Boo? I've heard not-so-great things about WallE and Rex...

Since I just won 15 gems in the Strikin' Gold mini-game, they are burning in my pocket!

I got Prince Charming's Gloves on Saturday and haven't spent a dime on this game. All free. All time management skills, right here.

Okay, I haven't gotten frustrated with anything in the game really. I know they want to make money. I've got 100 log benches I think, I had to pay for 4 chests, but I got gloves and SM from them so I've been ok.

But TWICE in the past 3 nights I've set my characters up for long quests, set up chests, etc.
when I open it up In the morning, nothing has moved or only moved an hour. It's like it's paused or something? This is a new glitch for me and very irritating. It's a busy work week for me so I don't have time to open up the game all day. AND need restful sleep at night.
What's the deal?? A glitch? Something I'm doing? I don't play on 2 devices.

Thanks!

So... still no gloves and drowning in bronze. More silver than a few days ago but one or two gold that had.... mining displays...

While I wait, should I just be upgrading characters? I don't have a lot of quests going except get the gloves and a Goofy one. I am assuming as I keep leveling up the characters, more will come?

Also, I have about 70ish gems. I am afraid to buy a platinum chest. I was going to save for Pluto. I have heard he is more helpful. Yes?

Eve provides some help in getting others tokens, but other than unlocking her, she does little for the advancement of the main story, there are side quests with Wall-e but again, limited overall use. As you mentioned, pluto and his dog house are generally considered good buys. I would look at any characters that offer a completion bonus or provide ways to get harder to drop tokens. People have remarked that Maximus is a good buy and has some fun side quests. Of course you need to have progressed that far in the game, and you are still a ways off from welcoming Flynn.

Parades take a loooooooooong time to get your initial investment back. But it's currently the only way in the game to earn extra gems besides winning events. Premium characters are the best in my opinion since they can help with other characters. Wall-e is the least useful. Maximus has adorable quests and helps massively with the Tangled characters and beating mother gothel. I just bought the blue fairy since she's fairly cheap. You should keep a little stash of gems on hand just in case we another event with a premium character.

Oh that sucks. That keeps happening characters I try to upgrade right before I sleep. The timers usually resume after I start the game again though. Maybe you could open the game again after you exit out just to make sure everything is working?

Yes to upgrade characters. Some need to be a certain level for new quests to unlock. For now, levels 5-7 is a good place for them to be. Or you can start building lots of concession stands so you won't have a problem with magic later. You can always store away the concession stands if you want a prettier park.
Pluto is wonderful! If you only get one premium character, he's the best in the long run. Don't buy a platinum chest since you've only just started.

Thank you so much! I will save up for Pluto and be passively aggressively angry about my lack of platinum chests/gloves situation.

I just had a pair of gloves drop from a silver chest, so maybe the developers are recognizing how frustrated people have been?

They move to the silver chest as well as other places after you get the first pair

 

[DisNerd0728]

I have been playing this since the beginning. I have absolutely nothing left to do except find those darn gloves!!!! I have had a few gold and platinum chests drop but to my avail only decorations. I am starting to focus on leveling up my characters since that hasn't been a prime focus of mine. I have to say it's getting almost tedious.. I feel like I'm forcing myself to log on & play at this point. I love this game but at this point it seems more like a chore than fun

 

[Drizzle2008]

Received my 1st platinum chest yesterday and waited 24hrs for a duplicate Tribute to Heroes statue. That disappointment was negated by the rest of my progress today though...

 

[KM5664]

Today is the first golden chest I've received since welcoming Flynn 10 days ago. 12 hours to go - here's hoping I finally get some gloves!

 

[DCNC]

I started getting chests regularly again after several days of nothing. My theory is that I had stopped placing my prizes (how many hanging lantern does one need?!) and after I placed them all (I have one area that looks like a cemetery) I started getting chests again. Of course it could be a coincidence.
