UPDATED 5/22 9:30PM EST: Android users check your Play Store for yet another Play Store update for TSTO. So far this again looks like it’s an attempt to fix some of the lag/crashing problems that have been plaguing Android users for months now….let us know if YOU notice a difference in your game.
Sorry iOS users…just checked my store on my iPad I don’t see an update just yet. But I believe these patches for Android are repairing issues Android users have been experiencing for months (especially Kit Kat users).
Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Looks like we just got ourselves an in-game update on our favorite Tapping Devices! Which, shouldn’t be a surprise to you if you checked out our Open Thread/Reminders post last night…
LEVEL 41 has Arrived! (and hey we’re here for this 1 😉 )
More details as we work through them ourselves….but for now Moe gets this going in your Springfield!
If the Level Up! Message wasn’t a clue for you, this Level is focused around Dr. Hibbert….
After some dialogue between Moe and Dr. Hibbert you’ll be prompted to build the Vulgari Jewelry Store, it costs $800,000 and is a 24hr build.
As always we’ll post more details below the fold for those who don’t want more details until they play the level…so WARNING SPOILERS AHEAD!
Looks like we got ourselves TWO new characters in the game and some new vehicles!
Freemium Stuff:
Buildings
– Vulgari Jewelry Store– $800,000, 24hr build 3×6, unlocks Bernice Hibbert
Characters
-Bernice Hibbert- Comes with Vulgari Jewlery Store
Decorations
–Bloodmobile- $132,000, improves vanity (not unique)
Premium Stuff:
Buildings
–Unfinished Shed– 150 Donuts. Comes with Chester Dupree (3×3)
Characters
– Chester Dupree- Comes with Unfinished Shed
Decorations
– Duff Party Liner– 100 Donuts (unique)
That’s it my friends the full rundown on Level 41! Not a HUGE update, but an update nonetheless! Two new characters, a few new decorations and more fun to keep our tapping fingers happy!
What do YOU think of Mrs. Hibbert finally entering our games? Finally a freemium wife! Any other thoughts on Level 41? What do you think of the new character? Sound off in the comments below, you know we LOVE hearing from you!












Completed the quest good reading.. blood truck takes a bit plus aa meeting
Thanks, but please keep the friends requests to the proper location to keep them from getting lost in content about the Level Update.

My apologies bunny just love this game to much
No worries. I just know the best place to put it is there due to the mass amounts of people that come to our site and go to the list to find new neighbors. Hate to have your name just disappear in the comments. 😉
Cool Lisa Skin today and an update… score!! [must not play game under desk, must not play game under desk……]
DO EEEEEEEEEEEET!!! 😉
I succumbed! I was hoping that grocery store would go down in price. With the intro of the new price level, it won’t start decreasing until the next level update… is that the correct understanding?
This is why I’m still playing this game despite the technical snafus… the content stuff continues to be super fun. Just in time for a long weekend.
They hit us with another multiplier. Post coming soon with changes to game with update.
Caught the update in my B-Game first, and I didn’t get a level-up message – not quite there yet. But Dr. Hibbert and Homer had a conversation about a shed, and then I got the boat, the shed and the blood mobile in my building menu anyway.
Regarding Chester: Dr. Hibbert’s Unlock Message said something about his brother in law Chester, didn’t it? At least in the german version. Maybe this is he?
Yes. The Brother in Law. 😉
Woohoo I just got the duff liner and unfinished shed with the jewelry store.

I was hoping the update would fix the lag issue and the Krustyland crash issue, but nope 🙁
Same here! Really frustrating, here’s an update, too bad for those of you that can’t play! All they tell me at ea is their working on it.
800,000 for this new building!!!!!
C’MON!!!!
BTW, If I am level 40 and have reached the max XP (at least once), and now building up the next cumulation of points, will I have to wait until the limit has been reached again, to progress to the next level (41)
Yes. Sorry.
And the higher the level, the higher the costs. Remember EA added a new price multiplier last Level. So it is sitting at times 4 of its base cost.
These are not limited time characters or buildings are they?
I’m not sure if I should just wait for a price decrease (i.e. Level 42) or just use 90% of my ingame cash to purchase it asap?
Yes…they are level updates so no need to rush at all. 😉
Can you explain more about this price multiplier? Does that mean if I wait until next update the cost would go down?
Yes…if you look at the Realty Guide, it will explain it in a bit more details. Also, I have a post coming up on the changes to the game the Level brought. So keep an eye out.

@uncle123…I never have to…it was instant when I got the update… 🙂
Nice little update. I still have some lag issues. EA needs to get their stuff together.
So is Chester voiced?
No, he is a brand new character so there really isn’t a “voice” established for him. 😉
love that Duff Party Liner!!!!
Good need more water space! Party at my squidport!!
Woo Hoo!
I love the six donuts I got… 🙂
Thought this was another premium level after starting level 41 and the first prompt was to buy the unfinished shed for 150 donuts! Glad I popped on to see that once Moe is available there are freemiums available too. After having to buy Lugashs gyms for 150 donuts to complete Millhouse’s fitness task ( I chose not to buy it!!) it was nearly bye bye Tapped Out for me!
Yeah, I wasn’t too thrilled with the tie in to Lugash’s gym for the rest of the Quest, either Granted, I might have felt differently if it had required a premium building I already owned…
Ahh level 41′ abuilding a truck, another building a boat 3 doughnuts ahhhhhhhh I am hyperventilating help argh a doctor thank yoe EA you think of everything.
Careful there Al!
I know very giddy but what a lot of content my town isn’t big enough to house this………no I am not complaint lol.
Very happy with this update! Another freemium female and a freemium vehicle is a great bonus. I had also been wondering if we would ever see the duff boat added after seeing it an episode recently. The only negative is that I feel that a lot of the premium characters have been quite expensive lately. I understand for someone like CCL and Manjula who have been in demand but for this guy and the music teacher I would say that closer to 100 donuts might seem a bit fairer. We always have to throw in a slight moan about everything 🙂
i have Moe on task but Hibbert had talk with Homer and i believe Chester is Hibbert’s brother in law! Love love love this update! Woooo Hoooo! Yes i knew Chester was coming from ya’lls post yesterday. 🙂
I think there was an update or something. I never know what’s happening.😜

THANKS FOR COMMENTING!
😜
your so Silly! HAHAHAHA
Your so Silly!! 🙂
Wait!?!……are you saying I’m silly………….OR……….silly?😆😆😜
I think EA are beginning to actually take their consumer serious what a terrible slow start to the year we had on tsto now all of a sudden we are getting updates left right and centre I dunno who the hell Chester Dupree is but If it means new character and story content fine by me lol. Keep the updates coming EA the simpsons is huge with the amount of skins, decorations, characters and big updates such as monorail heh hem! This game can go on for years! Oh but we would defiantly need more land once figured a formulae for stability also. Enjoy regular updates wateva it is so I’m delighted 😊
This is about normal. 😉

Who the heck is Chester Dupree? Which episode was he in? I know my Simpsons and most characters but never heard of this guy.
Brand new…never seen before…EA just released him. It was all over their TSTO FB yesterday. Lol.
Awesome. Do you know if there is another Jebediah Springfield statue out there? I know the whacking day one and the super duper secret one but I was going through my friends town and saw he (of she) had a third one? Any ideas???
To be honest…I believe there is only two. The “easter egg” one w/bear and the one from whacking day w/snake. Your “friend” may have an “altered game” or it is another icon/decoration. Do you have a screenshot of it? If so, you can email it to us TSTOAddictsblog@gmail.com
I’m not 100% sure, but I think is Bernice’s brother. I remember he was mentioned in the beggining of the episode “Gone Abie Gone” (Season 24 Ep 04) when Homer is remembering Marge’s remember about Dr. Hibbert healthy food indications.
Cool, currently level 38 I hope I get to level 41 sometime.
Also I hope we get some kind of update for players not at max level.
Oh also I hope we get lovejoys wife
Excited about the blood mobile and a freemium wife! Jewelry store is cool, too. Don’t quite understand the premium building tho. Does that Chester guy come with tasks? If not, that’s a hefty load of donuts for a building and character without tasks! Can’t wait for the store to finish building! 🙂
He does come with tasks. We’ll do our usual Should I buy on him….no rush tho since it’s not Limited-Time 🙂
I see it. Thank you Alissa. I use the app ya’ll put out for my TSTO news… guess you did beat me after all lol
What app??
It’s not an app authorized by us. It’s someone trying to profit off of our work, as well as various other TSTO blogs work, with out having to actually do any of the heavy lifting of writing a blog.
Woohoo!!! 🙂 …building the jewelry store!!! 🙂
I want a tennis bracelet! 😉
Oh you play too, huh?!? …Christmas is coming… 😉
Not saying I hate it or anything , but Chester’s color scheme is darker than all the characters in the game… a more modern look.
I knew a new level was bound to happen soon, as I blew about 3/4mil on buying property a few days ago. So now it’s going to take me at least a few more days to save up enough for the jewelry store.
I’ll have to pull my characters back from Krustyland (I’m only on the Tooth Chipper task there) to earn up enough dough.
I’m glad to have a Freemium wife for a change (although, yes, I did buy Apu’s wife when she became available). I wish they’d bring back some of the buildings that I missed out on from starting this game too late, like the mall, or the skating rink.
You never know…they make come back sooner or later 😉
Did this try and fix any of the lag?
I still have lag but it’s improved a little.
Who the heck is Chester
You mean you don’t know?! 😉
I think it’s just a character they threw into the game to enhance Hibbert’s questline
Brand new character never seen before. EA released him as part of Hibbert Family.
Oh. It will be interesting to see if he ever makes an appearnce on the show
I just finished rushing through things, and I’m not too impressed with the update. Perhaps it’s because I’m completely unfamiliar with Dr. Hibbert’s wife, and the new character isn’t all that spectacular, especially for a premium one.
Honestly the best part of the update for me is the Duff Party Liner and the Bloodmobile is pretty nice looking too.
It’s a small update, Level wise. Only 3+ days long. Which might indicate they have something they’re working on for next week that wasn’t quite ready yet. Surprised by how short the main quest was…usually they’re about a week and 10+ parts. We’ll see what happens next week.
In the end just glad to have another female in the game, and like that the “couples of Springfield” are shaping up nicely 🙂
Hopefully that’s the case. Even if it’s not new content, an update to fix the lag issues people are having would be more than welcome.
Loving it currently building as we speak however won’t be here to finish building it as off to Disneyland Paris till Sunday so won’t see it till then 🙁
Yea but i’m more jealous that you’re going to Disneyland Paris! Can I fit in your suitcase?! 🙂
Lol, yeah if you can get to Britain first 😉
I’ll swim! Are their sharks?! 😉
Hey guys, I just rushed Doc Hibberts task as I assumed he kicked off the story/level update (I can see you’ve said it’s actually Moe!). There was immediately some dialogue with Homer (no spoilers..) and then.. nothing. I was jut told an item had unlocked, but it’s premium! My first thought was “surely EA haven’t done a level update with Premium content only!?”
I can now see the “other” building in the freemium section, so guess there is a Premium storyline to accompany the Freemium one. Phew!!! That will teach me not to rush things with donuts (well, it was only 2…).
Not giving anything away, but excited by the new character!! I hope “they” are voiced!!?
Mrs Hibbert and the Bloodmobile, exciting! Not to mention the donuts for leveling up!
Sweet! I just noticed the ingame updater got larger when I restarted the game and hey! level 41!!
