Hey Howdy Hey Tappers,
How are you doing in your quest for free Doodads? Have you succeeded in unlocking the Singing Sirloin yet? Making good use of visiting your neighbors daily? In need of more Tapping Friends? Remember you can always find friends on our Add Friends Page (and here for ones who pledge not to vandalize you)…the best (and only way) to submit your Add Me requests on TSTO Addicts!
So far we’ve already covered the first two Friendship prizes, so now let’s talk about the third prize, Snowball II. Snowball II is unlocked once you’ve unlocked the Singing Sirloin AND earn an additional 1,500FP…and many of you should be unlocking it at some point today or tomorrow (depending on how many friends you have). So what happens when you unlock this feline? What does it do? Well let’s take a closer look…
Once you’ve completed Friendship Level 2 and earned an additional 1,500 FP you’ll unlock Snowball II and you’ll see this message popup:
Once you return to your Springfield you can find Snowball II in your Inventory. There isn’t much to Snowball II. This feline is yet another NPC (Non-Playable Character) for your Springfield. Once you place her from your inventory you’ll see this unlock message:
If you tap on her she’ll cough up a hairball, but after that there isn’t much more to this feline. She’ll roam around your Springfield just like Santa’s Little Helper, but at least this Simpson pet won’t cost you precious donuts!
Now see we’ve got a little problem here at Addicts. Normally Bunny and/or Wookiee would cover the Where did THAT come from for a character. But when it comes to Snowball II…well Wookiee’s allergic to cats and Bunny well…..cats eat Bunnies! So it’s best to keep them both away from this character…for my own mental sanity. So I’m going to attempt a quick Where did THAT come from on Snowball II…bare with me, since it’s not my “normal thing”.
Snowball II first appeared on the Simpsons during the very first episode. Season 1, E1 Simpsons Roasting on an Open Fire. The appearance takes place while Homer is going through the Christmas decorations and Marge is writing the family Christmas letter. She explains “First the sadness. Our little cat Snowball was unexpectedly run over and went to Kitty Heaven. But we bought a new little cat Snowball II. So I guess life goes on…”
Snowball II appeared in countless episodes of The Simpsons in-between her debut in Season 1 and her death in Season 15. Yes, that’s right the REAL Snowball II dies during Season 15 E9 I, (Annoyed Grunt)-Bot when she’s hit by Dr. Hibbert.
Now I know I’m leaving out more memorable Snowball II moments, like when she pulled Homer from the burning tree-house…oh hey look I just mentioned it! 😉
Now that you’ve completed Level 3 it’s onto Level 4. What does that mean exactly? Well not only is it your chance to earn the coveted Simpson’s Car but you’ll also earn more Cash for the items you tap while visiting Neighbors. How much? You’ll earn $26/item tapped (so $26 x 3 items is $78 per neighbor). This is a $2 increase from Level 3.
Next up…you’ll need 2,000 FP to unlock Homer’s Car! I’ll be back tomorrow with the details!
In the meantime…what do YOU think of the Snowball II? Have you unlocked it yet? Did you earn it via FP or did you spend donuts to get it faster? Were you excited they added her to the game? What are some of your favorite Snowball II moments? Sound off in the comments below…you know we LOVE hearing from you!
