i hope part 2, part 3, part umpteen gazillion of this, is different.
mostly the ability for visually impaired to have any hope without spoilers (I needed to use that list for 5 places I missed 3 of which I did only on faith of the truthfulness of that list).
I hope more/all of some point up to the 151+(67) places in the game (currently), which is 115+(67) with fields, for a total of 374+(67) fields) are used. Which includes the optional sba's (separated out cause of my spreadsheets format) and the optional Nates ans Kaines which pre-require all earlier ones to be done, and the 1/2 optional square of evergreen forest and the 1/4 optional square of the swamp.
love that some of that was done for this explorer quest, and the Halloween trick or treating and the Easter egg hunt.

keep up the challenge

There is one in The Shady Forest, field 4. I cannot for the life of me find the one in the top field of the Jungle Temple though.....

Here's my problem with this quest....
This link leads to a screenshot of the bottom right section of the desert city gate on my machine. http://screencast.com/t/1dnekcLFN28p

Can someone tell me where in here I am supposed to be seeing the sparkle?

If no one else sees it either, I am going to report this as a bug. (Windows 10 machine, running Edge, FB version of the game)

Kathy, I couldn't see any sparkle at the Desert City Gate either. I had several areas where I saw no sparkle.

Janice, I had trouble at the Creepy Crevice. Whacked bushes for a while and then decided to leave and come back after finding crates in a few other areas. I finally got it. Might just take a long time. Some of mine appeared quickly, some very slowly.

Thanks Becca. That's too small for my old eyes to see unless I am looking right at it. At least now I know I am looking for a one pixel color change.

Devs, This is the only challenge you have thrown at us in Bushwhackia in the years I have played. You know that's a long time - since I played the original practically since the beginning and this one since the beginning.

Some of the 'sparkles' appear above plants or bushes that are being whacked. If the bush doesn't grow at a certain time, no sparkle. And I've hit the Creepy Crevice location several times, whacked it over 200 times (I'm a 'counter') and still no crate. And no sparkle at this one. Have found about half the crates now.

Very disappointed in this challenge.. I have yet to see a glow and end up using all my points and getting nothing for it. Who ever thought this would be a fun event should be fired. I hate it and and not going to bother with it any longer.

The Desert City Gate has the sparkles right above the palm tree stump in the middle.

That's the problem, it's so minuscule, it's ridiculous.

I used the locations listed here (they were screencapped from someone's google drive presentation) and they were all accurate. https://twitter.com/FaerieKitteh/status/663684409913020416

Wish I had access to someone who has gotten this far, but hasn't collected 18 of the boxes yet, so I could take screenshots and circle where the RIDICULOUSLY TINY SPARKLES are.

Cindy many thanks for your overwhelming compassion to those of us who are less smarter than you. Look forward to discarding your requests for help

I have found 17/20 lockboxes. There are two in each ("Island") but only one in each area. I cannot find the other 3 and I have searched many many times.

1st area - SHADY FOREST & MYSTERIOUS FOREST (GIVEN)
2nd area - DUSTY INCLINE & WINDY CREST
3rd area - DUSTY LOOP & ??????
4th area - UPPER FOREST & LOWER FOREST
5th area - DEEP SWAMP & ??????
6th area - MOUNTAIN PEAK & ???????
7th area - CREEPY CREVICE & SICKENED STREAM
8th area - ANCIENT POINT & DESERT CITY GATE
9th area - OUTER TEMPLE RUINS & TRIBAL VILLAGE
10th area - MAIN MINE & MOLTEN CORE (GIVEN)

If you need help on which puzzle it is, let me know.. but if anyone knows where those last three are that I cannot find, please let me know! Also, does anyone know if they are just in the main fields, or can they be in side quest/bonus areas too ??

Thanks and good luck!

My thanks to a previous poster who provided a link that gave all the locations or I certainly would not have found them all!

I was able to find all but 2 on my own and about half of the ones I did find was just barely noticed right before I was about to move on. One of them (sorry don't remember which) was half hidden by my quest log. I think the smoky sparkles needs to be a bit bigger and/or have the blue outline added to it when you hover over it. Other than that, I loved this one!

I'm giving myself a major headache trying to have any chance of seeing the miniscule dots or puffs of smoke in the areas these boxes are hidden, even with my magnification as big as I can make it on my monitor. I almost wish I hadn't started it now. No quest is worth this sort of pain. Now I have started it though, I have to finish. I'd go nuts seeing that staring out at me from the quest bar until the end of (Bush Whacker) time. Thank goodness for those who have gone before and created the "cheat sheet".
