Unlocking the Seaside Market
Step 1: Reach Castle Level 6
Start by getting your Cookie Castle to level six. This can be done by collecting enough construction materials and coins through regular gameplay, Kingdom quests, and daily rewards.
Step 2: Expand Your Kingdom
Then expand your Kingdom until you unlock the shoreline beside the curved grassy area. You'll find a toucan stuck on the ground. Speak to him to initiate the questline that will unlock the Seaside Market (initially called the Trading Port).
Step 3: Complete Touc's Questline
- SOS on the Beach—dialogue only. Simply talk to Touc to begin your journey.
- Stew for a Weary Merchant—bring x5 Hot Jelly Stew to Touc. You can craft Hot Jelly Stew at the production buildings in your Kingdom.
- Building the Trading Port—build the Trading Port using x8 Diggy Shovel, x3 Aurora Pillar, and x3 Aurora Brick. The construction time is eight hours. Diggy Shovels can be obtained through regular production, while Aurora materials are found through exploration and kingdom quests.
- Using the Trading Port—purchase any three items from the Trading Port. Choose items that align with your current needs or resources you're low on.

Step 4: Upgrade Your Castle
After completing the Seaside Market quests above and getting your Cookie Castle to level eight, you'll automatically begin the questline for further expansion. This will eventually trickle into unlocking Touc's Trade Harbor.
Step 5: Complete the Harbor Questline
- Let's Start Packing!—expand your Kingdom until all the areas surrounding the Trade Harbor have been unlocked. Reference the image above for the tiles that you need to clear. Focus on expanding in the direction of the shoreline to save resources.
- A Trader's Prospects—give Touc x20 Biscuit Flour. You can obtain Biscuit Flour through production buildings or as rewards from various Kingdom activities.
- Trade Harbor, You Say?—enter the Seaside Market and click Upgrade. It costs x3 Aurora Pillar, x3 Aurora Brick, x3 Aurora Compass, and 100,000 Coins. Make sure to save these resources specifically for this upgrade as they can be rare to find.
After completing those three quests, you should have a fully-functioning Touc's Trade Harbor!
