How do you figure? He shows a 200 gem cost. As I have more than 200 gems, I'm unwilling to try. Thumpback's house was only free for those with less than 300 gems.

You also have to be level 25 for Grim Creeper, not sure I can go up 2 levels by Suay's expiration of "free".

Hi Everyone,

We apologize for this inconvenience. We have identified and fixed the problem so going forward no one else should lose these Skylanders.

Because many of you were already impacted we have set these two Skylanders price to FREE in the store (Star Strike, Grim Creeper). These Skylanders will remain free through Sunday (10/27). To reclaim these Skylanders simply click on the info/buy button and you will notice the price tag has been changed to free.

To get this update you simply need to play the game while connected to the internet (to allow the patch to download). Then restart your app.

Thank you for your patience.
-AO

Hm. I've restarted my app 3 times, and Star Strike is still 200 gems and Grim Creeper is still locked... lol. (And I'm connected to the 'net. I'm never not, which should probably scare me, but I'm reckless that way smilie )


Quote:
Sometimes it can take some time for changes to propagate. If you still don't see them as FREE tomorrow, let me know.


Summarized.

Holy crap this works.

I need to be level 23 for Grim Creeper though.

Thanks for the heads up. Got both for free. Now my son needs to make a dash for level 25. He is at level 23 and 65% to 24, so definitely doable.

My game crashed and reloaded about 4 hrs back. I was bummed, but then I realized that I got Grim for free. So, I lost 4 hrs, but gained 200 gems. That's a big break.

They're not in mine yet, either. He did say to let him know if they still weren't free today. I'm giving it another hour or so.

@mommasith

What version of the game are you running? You can check in the options menu (underneath the privacy policy button). Latest is: v1.7.0 (361746+368684). Is that what you have?

This means you don't yet have the most recent content push. To get the update:

1. Make sure you are connected to the internet
2. Play lost islands (5min should be plenty)
3. Exit the app
4. Force close the app (double tap on the square button, then kill the process)
5. Upon reboot the latest changes should be applied.

I always force close, to save battery, and I've done that several times since yesterday smilie I will give it another shot, though.

Thanks for your help smilie

I am on wi-fi, connected to the 'net, made sure I had the game open for more than 5 minutes, exited, closed the app, re-opened, and still the same version # smilie

Turned off wi-fi to try it on 4G, even tried rebooting my phone, no dice smilie

Too bad I had already bought both of them with gems. That'll teach me... From now on I will wait a couple of weeks instead of getting them right when they are released. *Sad Face*

I did get Star Strike for free yesterday but not Grim Creeper.
Are those in a separate update?

I just get them both for free today courtesy of the info posted here. Thanks much.

Had no idea about this until checking here, thank you! Got both free this morning.

Just for the record, this is still not working for me. I left the process going overnight, just for something different... force closed again... even tried turning airplane mode on and back off so it had to reconnect, still have the same version and no free skylanders smilie

What level is your Kingdom? You need to be level 7 for Star Strike and level 25 for Grim Creeper.
MommaSith Green Sparx Gems: 377
#31 Posted: 20:59:50 24/10/2013
Grim Creeper is locked, yes. My kingdom is level 15. I could buy Star Strike, but it's still 200 gems.
(And the version # hasn't changed smilie )
I really do appreciate your help trying to get it figured out.

I must have overlooked it somehow but found Grim Creeper to be free as well yesterday.
Thank you, Activision.
