Shop Till You Drop: Maximizing Your Conform-O-Meter Consumerism Rating

Advertisements

Back with another installment of the Conform-O-Meter posts!  Recently I started breaking down what the Conform-O-Meter is and how it works.  The Conform-O-Meter is an important part of Tapped-Out because it provide you with a bonus boost in your cash and XP from everything you collect in the game.  When you achieve a 5-Star Town (it’s max rating) you will receive a 5% bonus on all money and XP collected in your town.  If you missed the previous Conform-O-Meter posts check here for the basics and here for how many points you’ll need to reach 5 stars.
Today I want to talk about your Consumerism Rating and what you can do to maximize it on your Conform-O-Meter….so let’s go shopping shall we?

You can open up your Conform-O-Meter and check where you’re currently sitting with your Consumerism rating by tapping the stars on the bottom left of your main screen, while your in Springfield (Krustyland has it’s own Krust-O-Meter which you can read about here).  When you tap on the stars this is what opens up:

Your Consumerism rating is impacted by the number of shops in your town (as TSTO says, “buying stores for suckers to drop dough”).  The more shops you have the higher your Consumerism rating will be. Every shop in the game adds 10 points to the consumerism rating.

So just how many points do you need to max out your Consumerism Rating?  Here’s a handy guide to help you max out at all levels:

6 30 3
