Harvesting Directions

The minigame for harvesting in Free Realms requires players to match at least three consecutive identical items in a column or row. It feels a bit like Bejeweled except that the player draws a line through the matching items and that line can go both horizontally and vertically as long as it is a continuous line. In the picture above, a gamer could draw a line through four Gummyfruits (the ones that look a bit like slices of watermelon). Below is a picture from harvesting action showing how the line of connecting items can wrap back and forth so long as it is continuous. We have added a bright green line to make it clear.

Each match adds some of the harvested item to a basket and fills up a meter below the basket. Once the meter fills completely, the player has harvested one bundle of that item. The vertical bar on the left indicates how much time is left in the minigame. The bar drops a little each second. Big harvesting matches will add more time back to the bar.
