I just found a blue present in my park. It had 15,000 DC in it.
The presents in your park are to celebrate Gaia’s Birthday / International Women’s Day. The mini-event started on 8 March and concludes on Friday (tomorrow). Here’s the announcement post with details about the presents and their contents. 🎁

adlerist thank you so much from the bottom of my heart for continuing to ask DECA and pressuring them to give us more than one island in an Expansion Extravaganza! I could not believe it and was so happy to see four islands AND a new triplet island! The first thing I thought was, OMG, Adlerist did it! 😃 Please thank DECA for me and, of course, the other game reps. I know you guys have been asking DECA for many years, and it’s so great and positive that they have listened to the reps and the players!
I am so excited! I immediately bought all the new islands and the triplets! 🥳
Here, here!!!
I bought EVERYTHING I could and still have lots of Gems, Food, Gems & Wishes just in case. Fed Up Dragons to get to 180, bought the last two Islands. Rearranged everything so that each Island has Dragons w/ the highest earning capacity and then Activated Kairos to speed up getting the 4 new Islands. Took me 9 hours 😰 and I’m still working on stuff AND, it only crashed once in that entire time! Unbelievable!!!

Thank you, I know, this forum is awesome. But I’m looking for a screenshot of the triplets before they are purchased. It’s for a card collection. Maybe I can photoshop and remove the ”new” sign… hmm… 🤔 😊
My DC were only enough for 1 island, I didn’t have time to save up from the last EE, and I’m not sure about spending wishes. The Triplets is cool, I hope there will be more islands with unusual shapes.

Once you've seen it in the market once I think the "new" icon disappears, but you might have to reload first. I'll check now.
Edit: I don't have the "new" icon but I do have the "deal" icon which won't go away until the end of the week. It might be possible to see it without the "deal" icon if you buy/wish for it and then select an info box (though I'm not sure if there's a way to access the info box when you've bought it - the portal might work; I assume it will do if it works for the gargantuan islands). Either way the "deal" icon will go away by the end of the week and then the market's info box will be sign-less.

I've purchased islands 37&38 and used a wish for the Triplets. Happy days getting so much real estate. 😊 I'm undecided how to decorate the Triplets. They may stay empty for a while until I have a plan.
Thank you adlerist and the game reps for persuading Deca that we needed more islands. 😊
I see that the Megatat can now be upgraded for 1750 gems. I'm rather tempted, as I visited a friend's upgraded one and it looks so lovely with three separate sections and three waterfalls. I do have sufficient gems, but I'm wondering if I could use a wish to upgrade it instead. At the moment I have no wish as I spent them all plus half my cash reserve to purchase all the new islands, but it won't be more than a few weeks before I'll have a sparkly new wish. Will that be possible?

Unfortunately, the Omegatat isn’t in the Wishing Well. Buying it with gems is the only way to get it so far.

Oh well. I suppose I'll just have to bite the bullet and part with my hard earned gems!

Thank you very much for the detailed information! I’ll have to learn patience 😅
I’ve emptied all my treasuries, can’t remember last time my park was this poor! But yay, I can finally declutter! And start saving resources again, sigh.
Love having all the new islands. Advise players thinking about getting the triplet to hold off until you see it in place and inhabited/decorated. Feeling really stupid for buying it without waiting to see one in a park. Wrote to DECA asking for a new “skin” that was consistent with the themed skins for other islands.

I have The Triplets in my park if anyone wants to see it. I purchased it as soon as it was released and took a screenshot. This is by far the best island Deca has created. I like it much more than the Megatat, which is really limited since no habitats and decorations can be placed on it.
I did ask Deca if The Triplets’ theme could change with the seasons (like the Seasonal Island Theme), or even better, with the Twilight Tower themes. Maybe they’ll do this in the future, but it’s a low priority.

I love The Triplets as well. Unfortunately they are very blurry on my iPad. I play in low resolution so expect some loss of detail but The Triplets are much blurrier than the Megatat/Omegatat. Perhaps Deca could tweak things slightly?

Calli reported the blurriness on Thursday. Deca said they were going to correct it on Friday. Sounds like it didn’t happen.
The blurry issue is similar to what happened when the Megatat was released. I’ll let Deca know it hasn’t been fixed.

Yeah, mine looks blurry too and I also play in low res. I really love the Triplets! Being able to put decos on the bridges is just awesome, although I am having a hard time deciding on how to decorate this island.

While I like that the Triplet can be decorated, I don’t love the lack of detail that looks so out of place with all the finely detailed islands and decorations in the rest of DV. I love the land bridges of Megatat, the wooden bridge …not so much decoratable or not. It also has the out of proportion elements that DECA has used before in a winter holiday theme. I have that but it has the advantage that I don’t have to use it so don’t see it. IMO Both of the DECA islands seem out of place in DV as far as design/color elements. If DECA is going in the direction of their own style perhaps a third dimension could be added. A parallel universe, like the rift. So far I have not found a grouping of habitats & decorations I like on the island, perhaps I should go traveling and look at what others have done.
I started DragonVale as a collector, became a decorator, and then added being a Visual Storyteller. For co-op friending my ID is GKVale # 4024

Many of DECA’s dragons are in a very different style from Backflip’s, so it is not surprising that their islands would be different too. The Triplets have a spring theme, so the Chrysalis, Gemstone, Monolith, and Hidden habitats will all look great on it. And so will all the spring decorations.
I like The Triplets a lot more than the Megatat. The Megatat doesn’t seem worth it unless you already have all the other islands. The Triplets are big, and I love that the bridges are usable spaces. So cool! I hope DECA creates more oddly shaped islands like this. The Quadruplets!

I think the Triplets are such a cool idea and I'm glad DECA are experimenting! I'm personally saving my gems for the next twin weekend, but I'm seriously considering using a wish on these 🤔

Another dimension would be amazing — think of all the extra space! But sadly, I don’t think our devices could handle it.
