This week’s Greenhouse Gala Treasure Chase clues to this week’s four badges and challenges are now available.
This is a weekly event, with four new “secret” challenges, until June 6th. If you need more details, see the previous post:
This Week’s Clues
- Go to where the sights are sandy and grand. Matching what’s blue is the challenge at hand. For away sands call out for you, and softly whisper “match the blue”
- Finding the words is only the start. Keep them yellow to set them apart. Spell out your words letter by letter. Words in yellow read all the better.
- All this matchmaking will have you seeing blue, but the Greenhouse Gala will open for you. Say “Hello Dolly” again and again, but blue is the color needed to win.
- Take a peak beneath the side. Find the shells tryng to hide. Matching shells is always a safe bet, as long as you don’t mind getting wet.

Susan says
LOL Thank you, JU!!
Andie says
LOL
Susan says
What stinks is that I’m in the middle of a Quinn’s Aquarium shell match badge! It won’t let me add this one will it?
MomsBassetHound says
It should as this event are different than M&M Badges.
Suz
sirron1957 says
Susan, I’m not 100% sure but it should be automatically activated. There is no “Activate Challenge” button to push so you should be able to continue with your QA.
sirron1957
DeeVermont says
Yes, you can add this shell challenge to a M&M.
Good luck! Dee
Denise says
It does let you do both at the same time. I am doing the same!
Brady97459 says
You don’t activate it and it will work as well with your mix n match badge as soon as u get 1 shell it will appear
shariOHIO5 says
OMG! I hate Trizzle and this challenge is taking forever! is it just me or does there seem to be a shortage of blue dolls? Plenty of green and yellow though! Then Quinn”s? Seriously? Pogo has a way of taking games I like or don”t mind doing and making me hate them because they show up all the time….like Mahjong. If I never see another Mahjong game of any sort (except Safari), it will be fine with me. Any tips on how I can get through Trizzle faster? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for letting me vent. I just wish Pogo would actually read some of our comments and concerns.
David says
A tip for go into settings and change the tile set to accessible large numbers and save time searching (easier to find matches)
CarolsBooks says
I was working on A Way with Words for red letters and the yellow letters popped up on it’s on. Whew! I’m so happy about that. God is good! I finally finished the red and got started on the yellow toward the end 🙂
JU says
I have finished. Nice completion badge. Thanks for all the Quinn’s power-ups.
Sandy says
I also finished the gala. Quinn’s is not my favorite game, but if you can manage to finish the first tank, play the bonus games. Go into settings and hit return to main menu and keep playing if you get a game you have trouble finishing. I do this whenever I have a badge to do with locked tiles. If I don’t get a game with locks, go out and in until you get one. A lot of these are not hard, just time consuming. When I was working, I did not do a lot of these events. Now that I am retired, and a lot of things were closed due to covid, I started doing them more often. Good luck to those who want to complete it.
Heidi says
Phlinx II
Way with Words
Trizzle
Quinns
Fun times, ugh, lol Good luck everybody
MaryBeth says
Thank you. Guess I won’t get this badge because I hate Quinn’s.
Rita Dickinson says
MaryBeth,
Well, you’re not alone. Keep smiling!
Rita
Glo says
Me too. I really hate Quinn’s. Never can get some of the badges offered because of this game.
Jackie says
Right there with you MaryBeth – I hate this game so much I never even activate whatever
challenge Pogo comes up with – then I set my mind to “ignore” for the particular Quinn challenge.
spn50mac says
#3 is Trizzle and #4 is Quinn’s.
Donna
classyuklady says
Oh well that’s me out of the last week no nice completion badge for me lol POGO couldn’t have picked a worse set of games. Trizzle and Way with Words are bad enough but to add Quinn’s to the equation urgh that’s me out lol good luck to all
patray2 says
Oh well 3 out of 4 isn’t bad. I knew Quinn’s would be in this challenge somehow.
To those of you who like the game good luck.
For those of us who just can’t progress in this game without buying gems (which we can’t afford to do)
there is always tomorrow.
Please take time to remember our VETERANS and their families today. They all made a sacrifice some
made the ultimate sacrifice so that you and I can be free. God Bless America and may we stay free.
Becky says
I’m with you. Quinn’s Aquarium is my all time UN FAVORITE game. I love getting all of the badges, but I refuse to buy gems when I am already paying the annual fee.
Rita Dickinson says
Hi Becky,
You are not alone. I feel the same about Quinn’s and I will not buy gems.
I have fun playing the games I like and let the ones I don’t like go by the wayside. Hope you do too.
Rita
Bex says
Phlinx – Play a real game. Then play tutorial over and over. Then play real game. Get 84 blue stones each tutorial
sirron1957 says
Bex, you don’t need to start with a real game. I started out with one round of the tutorial and then went to a real game just to make sure it would work and it did.
sirron1957
Pam says
I am sorry, but how does that happen…just tried it and I didn’t receive any points for the tutorial blue stones. How do you do that? Thanks
FADEDWILDROSE says
You do not need to PLAY a real game, you only need to LOAD a real game after repeating the tutorial the calculated number of times. 84 blue matches/tutorial (1000/84= 12 runs)
Bev says
The tutorial is not recording any points for me. I load a game, then click and do the tutorial. I repeat that… but no points.
MomsBassetHound says
You have to load a regular game AFTER you do the tutorials.
Suz
Tippiemom says
Thanks, Faded! 🙂
shariOHIO5 says
I played tutorial. didn’t give me credit. what did I do wrong?
whack7710 says
Again with the Quinn spoiler! I can do them all except that one. I wish POGO wouldn’t have a Quinn puzzle in almost every single event like this… can never get all of them! Very frustrating!
puddytat222 says
It’s either Quinns, Mahjong Sanctuary, or Sudoko – all gem suckers in every single challenge.
Christine says
Sudoku doesn’t cost you any gems, you can get all the answers from this site or if you would rather figure the puzzle out there’s no need to buy gems, just take a picture or write down the correct numbers you have filled in when you’re down to 2 lives. Mahjong Sanctuary shouldn’t cost any gems if you’ve completed the 1st 50 levels, then any challenge can be completed between levels 1-4 they’re very easy levels, you can also earn feathers by doing the dailies. Quinns, with all the challenges we’ve had, I assumed most players had opened tank 1 by now, maybe not? Unfortunately that did cost gems to complete! Once you have tank 1 open it doesn’t or shouldn’t cost any gems, if you need to get 6 shells, only do the easier challenge rounds, it’s almost impossible to get 6 shells on a regular round. This challenge only requires you to get 40 shells you don’t have to get all 6 each round. Good luck!
Christine says
You don’t have to get all 6 shells, if you only get 1 or 2 a level that’s fine. All you need for this challenge is to get 40 shells to complete it. I hope that makes this challenge easier for you. Good luck!
SANDRA TARALLO says
The first 3 are enough to make me say forget it–not worth the trouble…
Cindy says
I did all of the first level but these are awful, just repititious busy work and no fun at all.
Virginia Roling says
I totally agree with you. Quinn wouldn’t be so bad if you could play some of the early ones again.
tiggerlicious196 says
If you’ve finished the first tank you can play random levels
bigfun says
wow…. 4 of the worst games to play for this…
Mary A Knipe says
So glad I was wrong in my guess last week………..Mary
sirron1957 says
For Phlinx II the tutorial works. 84 blue stones per round = 25 rounds.
sirron1957
sirron1957 says
My mistake, 12 rounds not 25. Accidently put 2,000 into the calculator.
sirron1957
sonomapls says
How does that work? I tried it and didn’t get any points for the blue stones when I was using the tutorial. I would love to know. Thank you.
Sal says
Do the tutorial several times, then open real game…(don’t have to play.. just open and click new game). Then you get credit for the blue stones from the tutorial.
sirron1957 says
sonomapls, after playing the tutorial you will then need to load a regular game, then select “New game”, Do you want to start a new game, select “Yes”. And then “Continue”. Now you can press the “B” on the right side and it will show you your progress.
sirron1957
Heidi says
I agree, I get nothing for the tutorial. Why do some get credit and others don’t?
tiggerlicious196 says
Are you going into a real game and quitting from that?That’s how it counts the tutorial
wereingodshands says
Do the 12 rounds and then click on a real game… but don’t play it. Click New Game… follow the prompts … and everything will show up and you win.
Irene D. says
Good news! You just need 12 rounds, not 25.
Darlin_1111 says
I will not get the completion badge… I refuse to do another A Way With Words “color” challenge, I could barely make myself complete the weekly with the red, and I hate Quinn’s with a purple passion and don’t even play it for Pogis any longer…
Good luck to those who choose to muddle through to the end…
stretchdogg says
I’m trying it… but miraculously, a huge dearth of yellow tiles, for openers. Then when you do get one, it could very easily be an X or a Z. They are not making this easy. I’ve played three games and have 17…. SEVENTEEN yellow words. Painful.
DeeVermont says
Quinn’s is the easiest and fastest challenge of all 4 challenges (at least for me). Just pick out a layout where the tiles are separated and not piled up and one can get 6 shells per game.
Phlinx II is not too bad.
The longest for me will be Trizzle and AWWW.
Good luck all!
Dee
Anita says
I am not getting credit when I play the tutorial. It always worked before but not this time.
RyzandShyn says
LOL. This is horrible. None of these games are what we guessed from looking at the badge pictures last week.
I wonder what that was all about then? I guess they were just trying to represent a bunch of different games in the overall picture? There’s no figuring Pogo out these days, eh?
MomsBassetHound says
I truly dislike 3 of the 4 games, I actually considered, just for a minute, not doing them.
Suz
shariOHIO5 says
I agree!
drkchclvr says
Were we supposed to have finished all of last weeks challenges? It says I have till 6-6….. oh well, too late now!
tiggerlicious196 says
Yes you need to have them all finished by June 6th, you still have time
Cindy4764 says
Absolutely not! 1000 blue stones, not so much fun but doable. I barely survived 150 red words but now that I have a system down I could probably do 200 yellow but I probably won’t – ugh. But 2000 blue dolls in Trizzle? Double Ugh! I’ve avoided Trizzle challenges with far fewer than 2000 in the past.
For me I think Quinn’s is the easiest and most fun of all these challenges so will probably do that one for the Pogis. Then I will go to Badge Central to look for some badges to buy, I’ve been putting it off because I didn’t want to be in the middle of a challenge when these arrived this morning. It wouldn’t have been a problem because I would never have bought a badge for the first three games, lol.
Cher says
So disappointed with the game selection today. I finished Phlinx and AWWW. I’m working on Trizzle but it is such a slog!! Forget about Quinns. Not even attempting that. Not worth it for a badge.
Good luck to all!
Remember our troops!
Cher 🙂
Heidi says
please tell me how you finished A way with words so fast. I hate that game so much, lol Lucky to get 1 or 2 words per game, for badge
MomsBassetHound says
Playing Challenge round #1 & #2 is how I play AWWW when we need words of a certain color.
Suz
Life4Style says
I have better success playing Game Mode when I need to make words of a certain color. I find the Challenge Mode too limiting because of the limit on the # moves.
coaster440 says
any tips for the trizzle badge?
tiggerlicious196 says
For me I’m just playing as normal
Life4Style says
I had to quit it. I got all the others done, but Trizzle was just too much over the top for me. I’m not even at the halfway point, even after using all the PU’s I’d collected and bought some more. It was too expensive and frustrating for me to complete it. I can live without it.
Chrissie Burns says
Hi Pogoaholics,The only thing I have to say is the”Challlenges”, are kind of extreme especially what the require per game .These challenges are suppose to be FUN but they are not.Btw Trizzle/Quinn I for one will be hanging up my keyboard.Two games I struggle with.I was praying it wasn’t these games then I come in Badge Hungry and POOF all my hard work for Not ;(
shelnick9293 says
I finished Phinx II by doing 4 and 5 tutorials in a row then playing the game. Got between 350 and 500 each game so finished it in 3 games but the rest of the games, ugh. Why does Pogo continue to use the same games over, over and over again. I don’t play QA & don’t like AWWW. I may play Trizzle but because of the other two I won’t finish this group. With all the other games available why do they always pick the same ones.
sirron1957 says
shelnick9293, how did you get between 350-500 blue stones doing the tutorial when there is only 84??
sirron1957
shelnick9293 says
Because I did 4 to 5 tutorials in a row then played one game. Four tutorials gave me about 350 and 5 gave me up to 500. Finished in 3 games. You can do as many tutorials as you want in a row and for me I much rather do those then play the game.
MomsBassetHound says
They did multiple tutorial before loading a regular game, and they considered that 1 game.
Suz
cactuspatti_ says
None of the blue counted for me in tutorial and there is 84
tiggerlicious196 says
Did you go to a regular game and then exit?
MomsBassetHound says
Did you load a regular game after doing the tutorials?
Suz
FADEDWILDROSE says
Phlinx II: It occurs to me that we may be confusing some people by saying LOAD a real or regular game after playing the tutorial. Are they rebooting the whole game? Maybe it would be clearer if we said click the green “Play” button for a regular game after playing the tutorial(s). It does not matter what level (pyramid, temple, gate, or celestial) in the real game. When the game field has loaded, just exit via the “new game” button in that regular game.
Brenda M. says
This is not possible, so don’t even wonder abut it!
marcybookoo says
I completed the games in Week One, but am going to pass on these games in Week Two.
jill701 says
I don’t think I am really good at Quinns, but lately I seem to finish a lot of levels without using power-ups and on the first try. Do you think they actually made it easier to win?? Anyone else notice it, or should I just go to the Casino, because I am really on a luck streak?
RyzandShyn says
I also having unusually good luck – getting all the shells and not having to use power-ups.
Meet you in Vegas!
Mary Miller says
Thanks! 🙂
playcody06 says
they always make these badges very long , trizzle is long got other ones done,any one know how we will get the game of month by gift or way like last month insread of just gifting them
tiggerlicious196 says
GOTM will be given to us like last time, that is the new way
MomsBassetHound says
They will no longer arrive gifts. They will appear on the top row, to the right of your daily challenges and weekly challenges.
Suz
Life4Style says
I like it this way. That way if/when Mini Golf is the Game of the Month, I won’t be left with undone Badges because I can’t load the game to play it.
theshroad says
The Game of the Month will no longer be by gift. It was announced that it will be done the way it was last month ~ the “new and improved” Pogo!
Bafflingbarnacles says
Didn’t even do week one because didn’t like the game selection. And this weeks are even worse.
Good luck to everyone else enduring the challenge! 🙂
CheekyVirgoVixen says
Oh no, something changed, now you have to win your AWWW game for it to count, I’ve been making a yellow word here and there and then hitting “Restart” just like I did with this week’s Wednesday challenge of making 150 red letter words, only now I find out these yellow words are not counting for any unfinished games, pooh 🙁
nessa says
Ugh! Way with words….again….and color words…..again….you’ve got to be kidding me.
We just got out of a horrible “all red words” weekly challenge and now an “all yellow words” ? Almost same challenge 2 weeks in a row! And not only a few words but 200 !
At least Quinn’s is not as bad, 40 shells is very doable even if you don’t like the game like me.
Trizzle 2000 blue dolls is quite a lot, but I want to think it will go fast and the game is not that bad after all.
But in general, horrible event week imo.
As usual they leave the worse games and worse requirements for last week, less time to complete the badges and likely more players buying helps and spending more gems to get all done in time.
Stella says
Nessa, I so agree. Seems the Pogo staff pretty much hates us. They could have been kind to coincide the weekly AWWW challenge in the first set of Garden Gala event, but they didnt. Then they gave us Trizzle which would have been so much easier to get if it was offered in the first week. Instead, they offered 4 fairly easy challenges in the first week. Just don’t understand what their thinking is
mireille185 says
Again, they kept the ones requiring the most time consuming for the last week. Not very nice Pogo and not appreciated at all.
Sonja says
I actually like Quinn’s so did that one and since the tutorial counted, finished that badge too. But no way will I start AWWW. Honestly, just did red words and that was painful enough so not gonna do it with yellow words. Same with Trizzle. Just much of a slog in another game Pogo ruined for me by it’s overuse.
Pogis have lost the allure for me. Get as far as I can but don’t really care.
GL to all!
Tippiemom says
I can’t stand AWWW, but I have found the best way for me to rack up words of a specific color is to just put the other color tiles away from the color I need in random “no word” jumbles and concentrate on making words with the color I need. For example, using game mode for this challenge I’m averaging more than 20 yellow words because “dumping” all of the other letters will eventually spell a few words
Sonja says
Agree, AWWW is certainly doable if one wants to do it I detest the game with every fiber! 😀 And it’s always the same challenge but for the color. Pogo folks are just lazy now with the repetitions. Oh well.
DeeVermont says
I didn’t spend a lot of time (considering what one thinks is timely) on these challenges yet I finished AWWW (if I didn’t like the layout I would click RESTART in the settings), finished Quinn’s and Phlinx II. All I have left is Trizzle (I’m more then halfway done).
These challenges go faster then you think at least for me.
Good luck all! Dee
Captiva007Pl says
I don’t mind Quinns; I like it and have finished it. But AWWW is kicking my butt. I loath this game to play regularly, never mind all yellow. I might make it, and I might not. IDK.
sugarbarre1 says
thank you all the information, if we do a few, do we get the window open badge.
have played q a lot and i find that the challenge round is easiest,
never tried the columns, but they are easy when you find them
avoid any with locks,
now i read that we dont have to finish the game of q to count?
if this is confusing to you, the whole thing is confusing.
2,000 dolls, forget it. I just bought some power ups for it, make larger,
came here to see what do i need. They dont tell you.
tiggerlicious196 says
For the rewards you have to finish all badges- I do believe you have to finish the game in Quinn’s for it to count, the 2,000 dolls is blue dolls that count
MomsBassetHound says
You only get credit in Quinn’s if you win the game. It’s like that for all challenges.
What is the window open badge?
You will only get the completion badge if you finish all 8 challenges by June 6th.
Suz
Sonja says
I girded my loins and started the AWWW challenge since I didn’t have anything better to do. I’m done! Crappy layouts but persevered. Depending on how tomorrow’s weeklys go, may take on Trizzle. I like that game more than AWWW but then I like every game more than AWWW Sure hope it doesn’t become a constant.
pamdew says
I finished Trizzle—a bit easier, it only requires a blue doll not having to get a specific size doll. AWWW is going to be my make or break. Hate the game and I am trying to just do a bit at a time. I don’t know if I will make it.
Is this the type of challenge that you can not cancel once you start a game and you can’t activate all at once.? Was that how it is going to be from here on out on these challenges? ugh!
pamdew says
Just found out I can work on the others since they all got activated when I solved the hint and activated them. yea!!!
RyzandShyn says
This Trizzle badge is just miserable! That’s all – just venting – I can’t stand knowing I have to keep playing, it’s like it;ll never end.
MomsBassetHound says
Think of me…dislike the game and have to do it twice…lol
Suz
Sonja says
Lol thanks for the encouragement Ryz! I was considering starting it since I slogged through AWWW but now not even sure if I want to bother. Pogo ruined another semi-fun game. I’m not gonna pull my hair out for 400 pogis and a badge I’ll never look at.
pamdew says
I agree!!! I hate Trizzle also!!!!
Cher says
I agree with you completely Nanc! Vent all you want. The game is nauseating!🤪
Hang in there!
Cher💗
RyzandShyn says
Hey you guys, nice to see I’m in good company!
You know, I always liked the game until I played for all those “Fall Scarves” badges, had to have them all and it killed the fun of the game for me. Lesson learned, I took it easier on the “Spring Flowers/Butterflies” badges and only played for 10 of the 15 of those. I’ve done all the other Trizzle badges, it says I have 80/80, but this 2,000 is throwing me over the edge for sure.
It better be a long time (after this is over) before I see Trizzle again, or it’s going to the discard pile.
Life4Style says
When I play Trizzle, anytime we don’t have to match a specific color doll, I get a better balances grid to play with. Whenever they require a specific color be matched, it’s like that color has been removed. For this Greenhouse Challenge, I saw way too many Green and Yellow dolls, and so few Blue ones it was ridiculous. Whenever I matched any Blue dolls, only Green and Yellow dolls replaced them. It also didn’t help when I had a couple of rounds where I thought I had made Several good matches and had built up to getting 45 turns to make, the game would freeze and I lost everything. That’s why I decided it wasn’t worth playing the game. When I’m only credited with 800 Blue matches, there was no way I was ever going to get the remainder needed.
Kathy says
will I finished it today. Trizzle was the worst. It seemed like it was never ending lol. I had left that one for last. But they are all done.
Kygirl1942 says
The worst for me was A Way With Words. It is such a slow game. But I finished all of them.
Deb Fields says
Since I do not know how to play challenge #3 …
Won’t get that
Challenge #6 – A way w words —
Not a clue how to play
Would be nice if Pogo would give you 2 different games for each clue … you’d have a better chance of completing it.
pamdew says
Finished !!!! awww and trizzle need to go visit Bejeweled stars and get in the way! Deb Fields I don’t have tips for you for A Way With Words. REad thru this thread and there were some suggestions for how to play. Good Luck
Sonja says
Wasn’t going to bother with AWWW or Trizzle but ended up finishing both. Hard to measure which was worse but Quinn’s was the most enjoyable of the four.
stretchdogg says
AWWW… I’m going to finish, but barely. Excruciating badge. The worst since that one with the hundreds of frogs many years ago. Anyone remember that?
Kathy says
I finished the Phlinx II badge with the tutorial and the Quinns badge . i played differernt levels and was good
i kept getting booted out of the game yesterday today was ok. i would have won the Quinns yesterday except the boots… i need to finish way with words and halfway thu Twizzle gl
noattentionsp says
i never thought i’d see the day where the quinn challenge wasn’t my least favorite. that one was easy peasy compared to the slog of trizzle!
shelnick9293 says
I did get them all done much to my surprise but had to use power ups on AWWW. Between that game and QA I don’t know which one I dislike more. Had nothing else to play so what the heck I started playing QA. First couple of games no problem but I had to use power ups to get through the rest of the games to get the shells required. Good thing I had plenty of power ups otherwise I wouldn’t have bothered but since I don’t like the game I have no intention of playing it again.
Blatherskite58 says
Thank you all for the tip of Phlinx ll!! I’ve tried doing the tuitorial before but never got credit but didn’t know to load game and follow through the info given. Now if only the Trizzle blue dolls were as easy and yes I really detest A Way With Words. I love Word Whomp and others but this one just drives me bonkers. I’m so glad I’m not the only one feeling hopeless and angry with Pogo/EA as they seem to just use same games and they’re not really involved with the players as they once were. Best of luck to all or just as I’m about to do and quit for a while and stream a movie or show to watch and relax until I fall asleep. Thanks again- Janice
Kathy says
I finished the event yea the rewards are for Quinns
2 undoes 2 hints 2 clones 2 jokers and 2 extras
and the badge for the event
gl
noattentionsp says
thanks for posting this! i think that’s a pretty generous reward! i just finished up myself and appreciated getting the quinn rewards right away.
Life4Style says
Well, they lost me with Trizzle. I began playing it the first day it opened and I’m still not even halfway done! I slogged through AWWW. I really dislike games that need (require PU’s) to complete them. I used all my stored PU’s and bought some besides, and still couldn’t reach the halfway point. That’s ridiculous.
Dorothy Hurt says
I survived it by mindlessly playing it (no strategy involved in just matching blue dolls, lol) while I listened to audio books.
Less painful that way.
Jon C says
Finished last 4 challenges under 5 hours
