| - Players can 'pay to play' Wonder shop from level 100 onward, where they can choose to pay with crystals (which will need to be bought with real money) to unlock the Picture early, rather than waiting until they reach level 102 and unlock it for free, through normal game play. Spooky Yard was introduced during the Halloween 2015 Update. For the duration of the Halloween Update, Spooky Yard could be opened from level 7 onward to allow all players to take part in the update's timed challenges. Pumpkin Lantern special items were also needed in addition to energy points to play Spooky Yard. While the Update's timed challenges were still active, Pumpkin Lanterns were given as rewards for every successful investigation for every picture, and as rewards for banishing Anomalies, but not for playing puzzles. After the Halloween 2015 timed challenges ended (either a player completes all of the challenges, or the timer expires, whichever happens first), Pumpkin lanterns are restricted so that they are only won by playing Japanese House and Amusement Park. With the Introduction of the 2015 Christmas Update (December 2015), Pumpkin lanterns were completely removed from the game. They were no longer required to play Spooky Yard, which became a regular Picture that just requires energy points to play. Any leftover Pumpkin lanterns in a player's Inventory were automatically converted, in equal parts, to the regular special items in the game (Fireflies, Ladybugs, Carrots, Cupid Arrows, and Tokens) and the collections that used to reward Pumpkin lanterns as rewards for combining them during the Halloween 2015 Update had their rewards changed to regular game items. From the Diary: Spooky Yard is one of the 15 pictures in the game that does not reward any combining elements, but does reward collection items that require a large number of combining elements to combine.
