Welcome to this page. Here will be all of the hints and tricks that don’t involve cheating in any way. So, just take a look, and try some out.
Sylvie
Every time you log on Millsberry, go to Sylvane Lake and just see if Sylvie is there. If she is, you will see some writing that says. “There’s Sylvie! She looks like she’s hunting for some fish to eat!” or something like that. Click on Sylvie, and you will get a cool prize. Prizes include Sylvie Plushies, Hip Waders, Seaweed Covered hats, Sylvie Beach Balls, and maybe even more. Cool huh.
Hardware Store
Spend over 100,000 millsbucks on merchandise from the hardware store, and you will recieve a membership card which lets you have access to some secret items. Once you get a membership card, click on the glass doors of the Hardware store to get to the secret items. Each week there is a new item that usually costs about 60,000 to 80,000 millsbucks. The same items alternate, and there are vintage items, and abstract items. You have to choose one. Unfortunately, you can’t get both. 
Colhurst Tunnels
To dig you need a few things in advance:
1. A shovel. Personally I recommend the colhurst shovel because it takes the least health when you dig. But if you can’t find one of those in the classifieds then I recommend the heavy duty shovel from the hardware store in the garden section, page 2. It takes the 2nd least amount of health per dig. The regular shovel takes the most health when you dig.
2. A high level of health.
3. A high level of intelligence. This gives you ‘hints’ when you dig about good digging locations.
Once you have those two things you can go digging. On the main millsberry.com page below where your mail messages are listed you will see a ‘dig for treasure’ link. Click on it and it will take you to the colhurst tunnels. Click on the woman at the register and it will take you to the room where you can purchase an admission ticket. Buy the ticket and then click on the entrance to the tunnels.
Once you are in the tunnels only dig where it gives you the message “Hint: This looks like a good place to dig”. If you dig once at a hint hole and you get a prize on the first dig and you don’t see the message again press the F5 key to refresh the screen. If the hint does not re-appear refresh a few more times. If after a few more refreshes it does not appear again then move on to another hole – it’s not likely you will find anything more in the hole in which you just dug.
There are 4 different levels in the tunnel and there are different prizes for each level. The following is a breakdown of which items can be found on each level:
1st level
Ancient rock painting
Antique lockbox key
Antique soda bottle
Anvil
Horse stirrup
Kerosene lantern
2nd level
Antique portrait
Dinosaur skull
Faberge egg
Golden Laurel Crown
Horned helmet
Native American drum
Sundial
3rd level
Baby papoose
Bamboo flute
Boomerang
Ceremonial mask
Colhurst portrait
Golden serpent
Greek lyre
Hero’s engine
Porcelain doll
4th level
Antique lockbox
Catapult
Colhurst’s Shovel
Egyptian sarcophagus
Kimono
Totem pole
To get to the different levels, just dig deeper in the hole. That is a confusion many people have
Free Soccer Ball
If you visit the Gym at the Millsberry Academy, and click on the soccer ball behind the chalkboard you will receive a free soccer ball. You can get only one soccer ball for free.
Karate
To achieve the different belt levels on millsberry requires both playing the karate game and completion of a series of tasks as well as maintaining your health, athletics, intelligence and civics statistics.
Starting with the game, each belt requires a greater number of plays and an increasing number of hits/blocks in a faster and faster time. The hits/blocks information is as follows:
White going for yellow – 10 hits
Yellow going for orange – 19 hits
Orange going for green – 27 hits
Green going for blue – 34 hits
Blue going for brown – 40 hits
Brown going for black – 45 hits
The health and other statistics information is as follows:
No belt, going for White: 16% and over
White belt, going for Yellow: 28% and over
Yellow belt, going for Orange: 43% and over
Orange belt, going for Green: 56% and over
Green belt, going for Blue: 70% and over
Blue belt, going for Brown: 84% and over
Brown belt, going for Black: 98% and over
Finally, the % ‘credit’ you get for your classes decreases as your belt levels increase. For example when you are playing at the yellow belt going for orange level you get 16% or 17% per game that you play but when you are at the brown belt going for black belt, you get 1% or 2% per game that you play.
Finally, you must complete a task for each belt level.
White Belt – Purchase a Gi at the Toy Store
Yellow Belt – Send a “Thank You” card to robertjwilliams (the original discoverer of Sylvie)
Orange Belt – Capture a picture of Sylvie
Green Belt – Find the Sensei’s cousin Patricks watch in the Colehurst Tunnels
Blue Belt – Pass a quiz about past events in millsberry
Brown Belt – Fish in the Peabody Park Pond and find the wallet, ring and camera that were lost by the Sensei’s cousin patrick
Black Belt – Grown and prune a Bonsai tree until it looks just like the bonsai tree in the poster given to you by the sensei.
Here are some instructions on completing the tasks:
***
White Belt – simply purchase the Gi at the toy store. It can be found on page 6
***
***
Yellow Belt – To send the post card go downtown, and click on the Post office.
Select “Send a Greeting”
Select “Thank You” as the card category
Select one of the two “Thank You” cards.
In the recipients name area type in robertjwilliams just as it’s written there – no capitals no punctuation. There are several people who registered with that name but the correct one is robertjwilliams.
Do not change the name in the “From” area.
Click the send button. Once you’ve sent the card it should notify you that your task has been completed successfully.

Orange Belt – Capture a picture of Sylvie in Sylvane Lake
To take a picture of Sylvie there are two things you must do.
1. You must get a camera from the Home Electronics Superstore (or from a YardSale) and leave it in your queue. DO NOT put it in your house or it will not take the picture for you
You have to go to Sylvane lake when Sylvie is out to get a picture of her..
The best advice I can give you is to visit Sylvane Lake whenever you are on Millsberry. That will give you the best chance of finding Sylvie. And when you do spot her be sure to click on her because she will give you a gift. Sometimes it’s something yucky like a seaweed covered hat but sometimes it’s cool like Sylvie Plushie or a Sylve Beach Ball.

Green Belt – Find the Sensei’s cousin’s watch in the colehurst tunnels
The watch is in the colehurst tunnels. There are three hidden tunnel chambers that could contain the watch. They can be accessed by following these directions:
#1. Enter the tunnels, make a right turn and go to the dead end. There is a rock on the wall that is clickable. Click that rock and it will take you into the 1st hidden chamber.
#2. Upon entering the tunnels go straight ahead and keep going until you reach a place where you have to turn either left or right. There will be a small rock on the wall that is clickable. That will let you into the 2nd hidden chamber.
#3. Follow the directions to chamber #2 but turn left when you reach the left or right choice. Go straight until you reach a point where you must turn right. Turn right and the wall in front of you will again have a clickable rock. Click that rock and it will let you into the 3rd chamber.
NOTE: The watch is not buried. It will be just lying on the floor of one of the hidden chambers.

Blue Belt
Take a quiz about past events in Millsberry. The quiz consists of 20 questions and can be quite challenging, but all the answers you need can be found in past issues of the Gazette. To view past issues click the link for downtown, click on the Town hall, Historical Society and headline news. Once you manage to get 100% on the test your task will be complete.

Brown Belt – Fish in Peabody Park pond to find the Sensei’s cousin’s lost ring, wallet and Camera
This is one of the easier tasks, but it can sometimes take a bit of time.
Click on the link for downtown
Click on Peabody Park.
Click on the sign that says fishing season is now open and that will take you to the fishing area of the pond.
Click the link for Bobby’s bait shack to purchase the bait you need for the task.
If you don’t already have a fishing pole I recommend purchasing the red fishing pole but that’s just personal preference.
Purchase your bait – I purchase 3 of each type of bait they have in the bait shack.
Return to the pond and start fishing. There are three locations in which you can fish and I fish with each type of bait once in each location.
If you get lucky you may get all three items immediately or the first time through. If you’re not so lucky you may need to re-visit the bait shack and purchase 3 of each type of bait and continue the pattern of fishing once in each location with each type of bait.
Make sure you keep track of the items you do find (meaning the ring, wallet and the camera) because it will not notify you that the task is complete after you have caught the third item.

Black Belt – grow and prune a bonsai tree that was given to you by the sensei
This is actually easier than it sounds. The sensei will give you a poster showing what the bonsai tree should look like and there is a book in the bookstore entitled Caring for a Red Leaf Bonsai that also provides some helpful hints.
The tree will show at the bottom of the “My Place” screen above your trophies. The best advice I can give you here is to wait until it grows all three tufts of leaves before you even think about pruning it. That way you can ensure 100% that you have not over-pruned it. I would prune it once and visit the dojo to see if the Sensei says the tasks is complete. If she doesn’t say it is complete prune again and re-visit the dojo. Be sure to not over-prune your tree or you will remove the tufts of leaves altogether.
It takes a few weeks for the tree to grow to the proper shape so don’t despair if it seems like a slow process
Bank Tip
At the bank, make sure to collect your interest. I get 60 millsbucks a day for my 200,000 something millsbucks. There are different settings to choose from for people who have more than 1 millsbuck. More than 10, 100, etc. Each setting gives you more interest.
Two Money tips
To make quick money, play games in the arcade. I recommend Sherman Home Run Derby, (although it takes a long time to play to get a trophy or lots of millbucks) Hop n Drop, and Cinnamon Toast Crunch Swirl to get the most possible millsbucks.
Tip 2
What you should do is when ever they have new items in the clothing store, tricks toys and games, furniture stores, and Petersons hardware and construction store. and wait a little while in case they take them out. and if they do take them out wait like 4 months then put them in your yard sale for triple as much they sold them in the store for and you should get a lot of money.
Game Tips
Bumper Boats
Play as Sylvie, the strongest and fastest character.
Steps:
1. Hit start game
2. Choose 1 player tournament 3. Do not pick a character, but just wait for 1 minute.
4. After about 1 minute, sylvie will pop up at the bottom of the screen.
5. You can now select syvlie and it is practically impossible to lose. You should be able to over power everyone by just hold the forward arrow.
6. hint: rather than just beat everyone quickly, spend time to gather the fruit. It will increase the amount of millsbucks you receive.
Match Wanted
1. On any level of the game as soon as you make a match on the board keep clicking on the board.
2.It will cancel out the progress bar but you will still get the points. By doing this, you will not have to advance to the next harder level
