Q, If I hold or participate in a party, can I definitely get a sticker?
A, Regardless of whether special guests (Sanrio characters) come to see you or not, you can always get stickers when you host or participate in a party. You can see the stickers you've received after you open the gift box that arrives in your room after the party has concluded.
Q, Do Sanrio characters always come to the party?
A, Special guests (Sanrio characters) don't always come to visit, but the more crowded the party, the more likely they will come.
If you want to be sure Special Guests attend your party, you can use [SP Guest 100% Essence] to ensure they come to your party. Only you, as the host, will know that you have used an essence.
In addition, if you invite a character directly through the [Characters] menu when hosting a party, the invited character will come to visit for sure!
Q, Where can I use the essence?
A, You can use an Essence when hosting a party. Follow the steps below:
"Social" → "Host Party" → "Party Prep" → "Prepare" → "Next" → "OK"
Next, you will be taken to the screen where you choose whether or not to use an Essence.
Tap the Essence icon, make sure it's checked, and tap "Use Start."
If you have several types of Essence, you may select only one to use at a time.
◆There is an expiration date for the essence, so please use it as soon as possible.
* If you have more than one essence of the same kind, the number of each kind you have will be displayed on the Essence's icon.
* If you have more than one Essence of the same type, the one with the smaller number of days left before the expiration date will be used first.
Also, the "# days left" displayed on the Essence's icon reflects the one with fewer days left until the expiration date.
Example: If you have one Essence with "3 days left" until the expiration date and one Essence with "6 days left" until the expiration date, "3 days left" will be displayed on the icon.
Q, What is the difference between essence items?
A, The effects of various essence items are as follows:
ーーーーーーーーーー
[SP Guest 100%] A special guest will appear whenever you use it.
You can purchase it for 98 Coins from the party prep screen.
[SP Guest Probability Up] The probability of a special guest appearing will increase when you use it.

[XL Plushie 100%]: You can always get an XL size plushie when you use it.
[XL Plushie Probability Up] The probability of getting an XL size plushie increases when using it.

Q, Who will receive invites to my party?
A, In order to preserve the exciting mystery of Hello Kitty Dream Village, the exact details and conditions of how party invites are dispersed are a secret. However, it's safe to say that party invites are most often sent out to other players that you interact with frequently.
If you want to make sure a particular Bestie gets an invite to your party, be sure to select their avatar icon during the party preparation process. You may select up to 10 Besties to send invites to.
Additionally, in the tab [Characters], you can invite various characters to the party freely, including your buddy.
* You can invite other characters excluding the special guest character.

An "Attend a party" button will be displayed below party photos posted to the community. This button will allow any player who sees your picture to attend your party. We cannot disclose the exact number due to the fun factor, but there is a limitation on the number of players who can attend one party. The "Attend a party" button will disappear if the number of guests exceeds that limit.
Photos taken with the camera function can be saved in the camera roll of the device itself, but there is currently no gallery function within the app itself. If you would like to save your photos within the app, please post them to the Smile Community or your My Feed.
Q, How can I join a party that's already in progress?
A, If you visit the "Party In Progress" board in the "Come to Play" section of the Smile Community, you will see party photos posted by other players. If there is an "Attend a party" button underneath the photo, you may tap that button to receive an invitation. You might also find party photo posts in another player's My Feed. Once you have received an invitation through a party photo post, the party process is exactly the same as usual.
* There is a limit to the number of people who can join a party that's already in progress.
* If the limit on the number of people is reached while you're using fruit to make sweets in preparation to attend the party, you will be returned to your room. Don't worry, the fruit will not be consumed in this case.
