Mutations

Frozen

First move

Use a short reminder for Snowfall and inspect the crop quickly; do not protect a low-value harvest longer than its replacement cost justifies.

Effect
Snow falls across the map. Crops have a chance to gain the Frozen mutation.

Frozen route

Use the short Snowfall window on one crop

Frozen is easy to overvalue when Snowfall is remembered rather than visible. The cost is holding a crop through a window that may already be over.

Follow the route

  1. Choose one ready, protectable crop during the reported short Snowfall window.

  2. Check that crop for Frozen before using the roughly 14× planning factor; a snowy sky is not enough.

  3. Compare the live quote with replacement and exposure risk, then sell or protect without extending an unproven hold.

Current-game limits

Treat Snowfall and ~14x as planning inputs. The crop label, current server effect, and sell stand decide what happened in this session.

Check the result

The crop state is checked before the short snowfall window ends, and a visible Frozen result is priced or safely released.

Frozen · Snowfall close check

Is there still one safe Frozen check left?

The reported ~2m 30s is a planning cue, not this server’s live clock. Check the sky you can see, then protect or release one crop.

Short-window rule
If Snowfall has passed or this crop stays unlabeled, stop waiting for Frozen and return to its normal harvest route.

Crop not selected

Pick one ready crop before you wait.

A Snowfall clue and a Frozen crop label are separate checks. The reported ~14× factor is never calculated here.

Use one personal recheck, not an assumed event countdown.

Check Snowfall

This gate does not time Snowfall or predict a Frozen mutation. It records one crop’s visible state and quote only.

Trigger / label / quote board

Frozen proof chain

A mutation changes the decision only after the trigger is active, the crop label is visible, and the sell quote supports the hold.

Trigger Snowfall

Confirm the current weather or event before waiting on a crop.

Visible label Snow falls across the map. Crops have a chance to gain the Frozen mutation.

Apply ~14x only when the crop shows this state; do not stack assumptions.

Quote Live sell

Compare sell now with protected waiting and keep the base quote available.

Mutation stop

Stop waiting for Frozen when the trigger ends, the crop is exposed, or the label never appears after one check.

Reset path

Remove the unconfirmed factor, return to the visible base crop, and choose a normal sell or replant route.

Worked decision

Short-window sale choice

Snowfall is active and a crop becomes visibly Frozen near the end of the window.

Decision

Compare the listed ~14x planning value with the current sell stand and protection risk.

Why this route

A short mutation window is valuable only when the result can be safely realized.

If the state changes

If the label is absent or the server clears, remove Frozen from the estimate and use the ordinary crop route.

Recovery path

If the Frozen check does not match

Use a short reminder for Snowfall and inspect the crop quickly; do not protect a low-value harvest longer than its replacement cost justifies.

If the item, offer, or result differs, stop before another purchase or sale. Repeat the relevant check above with the current details, then use the linked route that still fits your budget and task.

Page-specific questions

Before you commit

Is Frozen worth holding for every crop?

No. Compare the live base quote, replacement cost, and protection risk. A short window does not make every crop a good hold.

Can I stack another boost on Frozen?

Do not assume stacking. Record the visible crop state, compare one supported factor, and use the live sell quote when the result is uncertain.

What if Snowfall ends before the crop is ready?

Reset the estimate to the crop state you can see, check the current server, and choose a safe sell or replant route instead of holding on an expired window.
